This article contains spoilers for "28 years later".

When the first trailer for "28 years later" fell - you know, The one with the haunting translation of Rudir Kipling's song "Boots" by Taylor Holmes - There was a lot of speculation about the evocative images of the trailer and what can mean for the film itself. Given the fact that "28 years later" is a film arriving 23 years after the original film in the series, "28 days later", and 18 years after the first sequel, "28 weeks later", in 2007, there was already much to theorization. Maybe the biggest rumors may be surrounded Especially an infected creature in terms of divination looked at the trailerThe one who carries a fleeting similarity (as much as the zombie is clear) with actor Cilian Murphy, played by the heroic survivor Jimim in "28 days later". Worried fans were gossip about the possibility, so much that the actor who actually portrays the creature, Angus Neil, went out to the press to dissolve the rumor.

The theory of "infected JIMIM" seems to be a simple by -product of fans coming down with a franchisee case and seeing links that have never been intended to be there. And yet, after watching the right full film, it feels like director Dani Boyle and writer Alex Garland, really play a knowledge of the Easter egg in this sequel, especially when Jimim's character is. Threaded all over "28 years later", There are few pieces and pieces that are reminiscent of Murphy's JIMM, and the infected Nile man can be considered part of this thread. All this culminates in the discovery of Clifancher's film, which not only drags fast on horror fans, but it seems that Boyle and Garland may use Jimim as a fascinating aspect of the growing mythology of the series.

The opening of the "28 years later" sequence takes place in the Scottish Highlands during the initial days of An outbreak of the rage virus in 2002. A young boy named Jimi (Rocco Haynes) is forced to take care of survival on their own, as the father and father of the preacher succumb to the infected. Initially we are not told where that guy ended when the film jumped forward on time, 28 years later, but there is a feeling that Jameimi (Aaron Taylor-Nsonson), the father of the film's protagonist, Spike (Alfie Williams), could be the same boy. After all, the names are similar enough, and it is possible to grow up and simply want to be called a variation of his old name. The isolated island community in which lives seems to have a strong religious bending, so it acts as additional evidence.

Things are mixed after Jameimi and Spike head to the mainland for hunting practice. The location or two that pass the father and son seems to have the name "Jimi" written on it, and the couple encountered an abandoned house with an infectious man tied up and hanging upside down by the name "Jimim" carved on his chest. Although it is clear from the initial sequence that the guy named Jimi is not the same person as Murphy's Jimim of the first film and that his adult colleague will appear at some point, these indications appear to suggest that Murphy may still be there somewhere.

It is all scattered in the last moments of "28 years later", introducing the age version of JiKek O'Connell, as he and his cult gang of infected hunters rescue Spike from a certain death. It is a bait and a switch for several reasons: It is clear that Taylor-Nsonson's Jamey is not the same person as the boy in the initial sequence and that O'Connell's character, as well as the series of the series they expected (or just hope) that Jimim of Murphy can appear again.

Despite the completion of "28 years later", the establishment of this new Jimi character (whom we will see more than the director Nia Dacosta's film "28 years later: Bone Temple", "" " Because of the cinema next January), the film does not have to disperse the idea of ​​Murphy's Jimim to make a comeback at some point. On the contrary, it can do the opposite; If we turn on JAMEMI, that means we have at least three JIMI in the mixture within this alternative infectious universe. This repetition can simply be Garland and Boyle laughing, throwing a bunch of similar named men in similar torments and looking at the differences between each of them.

Then, again, there can be something potentially deeper thematic at work. St. Jameses the Great, according to the New Testament, was the first of the apostles to martyrs, and given the difficult religious themes of the "28" saga, I would not put the directors' past to make such a reference. In "28 days later", Jimim turns from an ordinary bicycle courier into a kind of retaliatory angel, a transformation that literally commented on Selena (Naomi Harris), thinking she might have been infected when not. This Notion of the Rage Virus Apocalypse (which is only relegated to the uk and not the rest of the world, it should be pointed out) Being a catalyst for turning orerary folks into mythic figure "28 years later," From the way that Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) Is Spoken About As a Colonel Kurtz-Like Maniac Only To Be Revealed As a Tender Mystic, To How My Day Jimi Saville, who was revealed to be a serial sex offender in 2012.

In this environment, Murphy's JIMM is also possible, has also increased (independently or through its influence) at the mythical figure, as a man who has almost independently extracted a whole regiment of hostile soldiers as well as infected. Although Murphy is only a producer of "28 years later" and does not appear, the plans seem to be in the works for that and Jimim to make a comeback in the future. If and if that happens, we wouldn't be surprised if we win a battle of JiMey or something. Whatever happens, I don't think Boyle, Garland, Dacosta and other directors will deny our JIMM too longer.
