Is there a post credit scene in 28 Years Later?
The newest sequel in the 28 Days Later franchise hit theaters on Friday, with audiences heading to see what the rage virus had done to the United Kingdom in the nearly three decades since it began. The story picks up with Spike (Alfie Williams) and his dad (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) heading onto the mainland from the safety of their island refuge for a coming-of-age hunting trip.
Warning: Spoilers for follow!
Eventually Spike and his mother Isla (the wonderful Jodie Comer) go on a search for a doctor (Ralph Fiennes) that can hopefully help her migraines and bouts of confusion. They, of course, run into a lot of trouble with hordes of infected and a particularly difficult Alpha (the more evolved and stronger infected). After finding Dr. Kelson, Spike has to come to grips with grief and death in a new way, and he decides to stay out on the mainland to learn more about himself.
So, is there a post-credit scene in 28 Years Later?
The short answer is no, you can leave when the credits start to roll. The longer answer is that there should have been one. Director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland ended the movie with a bizarre scene that involves track-suited, karate fighting killers in blond wigs, led by ringleader Jimmy Crystal (Jack O'Connell). It's a deep cut reference to disgraced British television host Jimmy Savile, but it's also a drastic tonal shift from the rest of the movie.
The newest movie is actually the launching point for a hopeful new trilogy, starting with 28 Years Later and continuing with the January 2026 release of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. Since the final scene seems to be more of a lead-in to that follow up film, it would have been less of a vibe shift had it followed a wave of credits.

David and Victoria Beckham Share Hilarious Moment in Backyard Garden: 'Had Lady Beckham Laughing'
David Beckham is showing off his gardening skills in a hilarious Instagram video taken by his wife, Victoria Beckham The former soccer player shared footage of his family's sprawling gardens at their home in the Cotswolds in England Victoria teased that her husband's carrots were "embarrassing" in the sweet videoDavid Beckham is giving fans an adorable glimpse into his home life with wife Victoria Beckham — and showing off his gardening skills in the process. On Saturday, June 21, the former soccer player, 50, shared some footage on Instagram of his family's sprawling gardens at their home in the Cotswolds in England — and made Victoria, 51, laugh from behind the camera as he revealed the fruits (or rather, vegetables) of his labor. "I've been waiting for a while for this," David began the lighthearted video, digging through a wooden garden box. "A carrot." "OK, let's see it," Victoria said. "I really hope it's good," the Manchester FC alum continued, preparing to harvest a carrot. David then pulled his vegetable from the ground, revealing an unusually short carrot that had split into two ends. View this post on Instagram A post shared by David Beckham (@davidbeckham) The couple immediately began to crack up, as Victoria joked, "That's so disappointing." "Oh my god, that's embarrassing," she ribbed again, as David looked at his harvest. Alongside the video, the retired soccer star wrote in the caption: "Exciting day today in my veggie garden, CARROTS 🥕 but not exactly what I expected but to be fair it had Lady Beckham laughing 😆 @victoriabeckham sorry about my carrot 🥕." In a few other videos and photos shared on Victoria's Instagram page, the couple showed off David's other harvests, including some onions, zucchini (or "courgettes," as the British couple calls them), beans and more. Finally, the fashion designer shared a photo of her husband proudly standing in front of his garden, as the sun set behind him. David has posted frequently about his newfound passion for gardening and beekeeping in recent months. In a lighthearted video shared on his Instagram account in April, Victoria filmed her husband of 25 years as he knelt in the backyard of their home to pick some white radishes and began to joke with him.

"I think the radishes might be ready," David said, wearing a gray T-shirt, khaki shorts, nude-colored socks, white sneakers and an orange beanie. "You look nice," Victoria told her husband as he picked the vegetables. "I look nice? No, I look a state," he joked back. His wife was ready with the perfect quip: "You know you're married to a fashion icon, right?" Also on Saturday, David shared some birthday wishes for his friend Prince William — just days after he was named for knighthood by King Charles on June 13. The former athlete posted a pair of throwback photos on his Instagram Stories in honor of the Prince of Wales turning 43 on June 21. "Happy Birthday Prince William x," David wrote over a 2010 image of himself and William in Johannesburg, South Africa. David followed up the post with another "happy birthday" message, a red heart emoji and a fitting sticker of a British flag — all of which he paired with a photo of himself and William shaking hands at the EE BAFTA Film Awards in February 2024. Following the announcement of his knighthood last week, David shared a photo on Instagram from a lunch with his mother, who joined him in London during what he called their first meeting "since the news" on June 16. "Mum cried when she arrived, cried during lunch and cried when I was leaving x special moment for us all ❤️," David wrote alongside an Instagram selfie. Read the original article on People

Prince William celebrates birthday with puppy photo
A photo of the Prince of Wales with another generation - this time of puppies - has been posted on social media by Kensington Palace to mark his 43rd birthday. The picture, taken by the Princess of Wales, shows Prince William with their family's Cocker spaniel, Orla, and three of her four recently-arrived puppies. The message for Prince William was signed online "with love", with the initials of Catherine and their children, George, Charlotte, Louis, and "the puppies", plus a paw print emoji. The picture was taken in Windsor earlier this month. There was also a message online for Prince William from the official account of the Royal Family, saying "Happy Birthday to The Prince of Wales!", plus some celebratory emojis. An accompanying picture, of the prince sitting on a stone wall, was taken while he visited farmers and food producers on the Duchy of Cornwall - a parcel of land William now owns - in May. Orla was given to the royal couple by Catherine's brother, James Middleton, in 2020, shortly after the death of their previous dog Lupo. The dog - seen walking behind William in the picture - gave birth to four puppies in May. Spaniels are well known for their affectionate behaviour and the picture shows the puppies clambering around the prince. In the puppy picture, the prince looks relaxed in a pair of jeans and trainers - an informal moment after recent showcase occasions, including Trooping the Colour and the Order of the Garter procession. He also visited a project linked to his Earthshot environmental prize which creates a type of sustainable dye that can reduce the fashion industry's use of harmful chemicals - so colours can really be green. Catherine did not appear at Royal Ascot earlier this week, with royal aides saying she had to find a balance in how she returned to public events. In January, the princess revealed she was in remission after her cancer diagnosis last year. On Friday, she sent out a message about her support for children's hospices - saying they helped families who were "heartbroken, fearful of the future and often desperately isolated". And now her photo has marked her husband's birthday. While Prince William was born in mid-summer on the longest day of the year, his father King Charles has been praising those in Antarctica experiencing the shortest day of the year. He recorded a special message for the BBC's Antarctic Midwinter Broadcast, which sends a morale-raising message to scientists working in remote research stations in the depths of their winter. The King praised the work of researchers tracking climate change. Princess of Wales pulls out of Royal Ascot appearance Prince and Princess of Wales share new photos for Father's Day
