28 Years Later: The Bone Temple
Expanding upon the world created by Danny Boyle and Alex
Garland in 28 Years Later, but turning that world on its head, Nia DaCosta
directs 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. In a
continuation of the epic story, Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) finds
himself in a shocking new relationship, with consequences that could change the
world as they know it, and Spike's (Alfie Williams) encounter with
Jimmy Crystal (Jack O'Connell) becomes a nightmare he can't
escape. In the world of The Bone Temple, the infected are no longer the greatest
threat to survival, the inhumanity of the survivors can be stranger and more
terrifying.

People We Meet On
Vacation (Netflix)
Poppy (Emily Bader) wants to explore the
world and Alex (Tom Blyth) prefers to stay
home with a good book, but somehow they are the best of
friends. They live far apart, but for a decade they have
spent one week of summer vacation together. People We
Meet on Vacation is a quietly confident romantic drama

impress its audience. Directed by Brett Haley, the film
leans into emotional honesty and patient storytelling,
allowing the relationship at its center to unfold in a
way that feels natural, believable, and earned.
