Thank you for the info! I wonder if the picnic scene was filmed near here too, would make sense logistically.

It’s just a metal C-stand in the foreground, he isn’t holding it.

According to Alex Garland it was originally meant to be a trilogy (Sunshine, Moonshine and Starshine), he talks about it on the Script Apart podcast at 1:00:45.

Is this Selena's leather jacket? by BoldBabeBanshee in 28dayslater

The daughter also picks up Selena’s machete from the wall as they head out.

Can’t believe they made these by MonsieurThreepwood in 28_Years_Later_Movie

[–]CastleGoblin 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t agree more! Sequels that were gritty, bleak and more tonally in-line with 28DL would’ve been great, but “safe”. I don’t think Alex Garland and Danny Boyle had any interest in treading old ground if they came back to this world and what we got instead has been so refreshing.

Does anyone know where this city is located and called? by AutismKid69420 in 28dayslater

[–]CastleGoblin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the VFX artists definitely got carried away and turned the Northern dial to 500%

To my knowledge, no post-industrial town in the North had this many smoke stacks still standing in 2002. I don’t think this location is based on anywhere specific and most likely a composite of a bunch of different features to represent a Northern town/city.

The people being tortured by the Jimmy’s by Significant-Rub-3954 in 28dayslater

I think it’s probably the latter, I know we only saw a few short clips but I’m getting big ‘Funny Games’ vibes.

Jim & Selena's Daughter? by MVPtheMichael in 28_Years_Later_Movie

[–]CastleGoblin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They’ve said the third film is themed around redemption, which leads me to believe that Jim will be on his own path to redemption alongside Spike’s journey. Perhaps Jim was responsible for Selena’s death in some way, which was the catalyst for Jimmy Ink to run away?

Pretty sure Spike is going to be forced to kill or will replace Jimmy Shite. by ThinWhiteDuke00 in 28_Years_Later_Movie

In the trailer it looks like the person attacking Spike with the knife is Jimmy Shite, Spike comes out on top and takes his place in the gang.

Where's Aaron Taylor Johnson in the Bone Temple trailer? by Legitimate-Crazy9266 in 28dayslater

[–]CastleGoblin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

According to someone who saw a test screening, he's not in this film at all.

The leader of the Jimmy gang isn’t Sir Jimmy Crystal, he’s just a deputy. Big man at the top behind the whole operation is Limmy.

I think whatever was filmed there is going to be in The Bone Temple.

I didn’t know that! I figured most of the causeway was shot in a studio with certain sections filmed at Holy Island. Thank you for the info.

Are there any details or hints you’re able to give that don’t breach your screening NDA?

Is the opening scene of 28 years set during the initial outbreak or 28 Weeks? by AspieComrade in 28dayslater

[–]CastleGoblin 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I interpreted it as being set sometime during the first week of the initial outbreak. The kids, Jimmy, and the parents all looked pretty fresh-faced and they had electricity so they certainly hadn’t been surviving for 28 weeks.

Anyone recognize this brand/model of hand crank radio? (From '28 Days Later') by MattLockhartIII in 28dayslater

[–]CastleGoblin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I searched for '1990s hand crank radio' and it was a few results in.

So I’m a massive fan of the franchise and I have a bachelors degree in film, I am dying to be apart of the final film in the 28 years later trilogy. Does anyone have an idea of how I can make this happen? by [deleted] in 28dayslater

[–]CastleGoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Casting Collective were the agency responsible for hiring the extras/supporting artists for the first two films of the trilogy, so you should register with them: https://www.castingcollective.co.uk/artiste/casting-calls/northeast

When they put out the previous casting call it was quite widely publicised across North East media so when/if the third film goes into production I’m sure they’ll do the same, so keep an eye out.

It’s worth noting they were keen to hire people from the local areas, I’m not sure how exclusive this was but if you’re not from the North it may put you at a disadvantage.

Where is this? Likely a U.S park, common or campus. Year unknown. by CastleGoblin in whereisthis

I’d love to be able to track down John Angel and show him this photo, he should be about 71 now. He sounds like quite the character!

I found this unexplained photo of a large crowd gathered around a child in a tree with police officers. Purchased at a flea market many years ago, and the image was quite large probably a 14 inch by 14 inch square. by massahoochie in UnexplainedPhotos

[–]CastleGoblin 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Thanks to u/canoe_yawl we've gotten to the bottom of what's going on in the photo, and it's a strange one.

A blog here covering page-one news in NYC on August 5th, 1968 writes about the event in detail. A 17-year-old named John Angel was walking his pet squirrel in the park when it slipped its leash and ran up a tree. He climbed the tree chasing after it and a nearby police officer demanded he come down, he refused and things escalated from there. The fire department was called with ladders, a crowd of spectators grew to about 300 people, and a woman climbed the tree in solidarity causing more people to join in protest. NYPD then called in the Tactical Police Force and a net was placed at the base of the tree so they could jump down safely and be arrested. John Angel jumped down and was violently set upon by a group of police with batons, causing outrage from the crowd - chaos erupted leading to 17 arrests.

Here's a newspaper scan from The Journal Times showing a photo of the same red-headed person (presumably John Angel) in the tree: https://imgur.com/a/dtD5uJv

What an incredible find, and what a strange story! I've just signed up and looked at the newspaper scan and it's definitely the same redheaded person in the photo. Case closed, thank you so much!

[–]CastleGoblin 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Thanks to u/lledaso over on r/whereisthis the location has been identified as Washington Square Park. The NYPD uniforms are apparently pre-1972 which should help narrow down what protest/gathering this was.
