Aaron Taylor-Johnson: Innovative filming makes 28 Years Later ‘like no other'
The latest installment of the apocalyptic drama franchise is directed by Danny Boyle, who filmed some of the scenes on iPhones. Taylor-Johnson told 6 Music's Nick Grimshaw: 'An iPhone can do that thing where, if someone puts it in your face, it feels very intrusive and makes you feel quite vulnerable. 'It cuts through a barrier that you don't usually have. They were being super innovative with the way they were shooting this film. 'Every day going to work was the most exciting thing, because everything just felt fresh and new. 'Danny creates this environment that allows you to be experimental and you never know if it's going to work, or if it's not going to work. 'But the end product, when you see this movie, it's got a feel that's like no other movie, because they're just inventing ways of shooting.' Taylor-Johnson appears alongside Jodie Comer and Ralph Fiennes in the film, which is set 28 years after the accidental release of a highly contagious virus which caused the breakdown of society. Taylor-Johnson said the movie, which premiered in London's Leicester Square on Wednesday night, is 'very visceral'. But he added 'there's a beautiful family drama within it'. 'It's very grounded, it says a lot about society, ' he said. Taylor-Johnson, who lives in Somerset with his wife Back To Black director Sam Taylor-Johnson, told Grimshaw he does not have a ticket to Glastonbury this year, but often 'at the last minute I find myself there'. 'We usually go every year and it's fantastic,' he said. 'It feels like the kick-off to summer. Our house is packed. We've had a few times where we've actually had yurts in our field and garden. 'It's a laugh to have everyone staying close by, and then we all go in.'

Aaron Taylor-Johnson teases mysterious next project amid James Bond rumours
Aaron Taylor-Johnson has insisted he "can't talk about" his next film project. The 35-year-old actor has been heavily rumoured to be the next James Bond as Amazon MGM look for Daniel Craig's 007 successor, and he gave a very coy response when asked about what he'll be doing after working on 28 Years Later. Quizzed by Deadline at the horror movie's premiere on Wednesday (18.06.25), he said: "I can't talk about it." Taylor-Johnson was already being led away before the question was asked, and flashed a smile after his cryptic answer. A few weeks ago, the Hollywood star was announced as a global ambassador for Swiss brand Omega, which has been the Bond franchise's go-to watch brand since 1995's GoldenEye, with every 007 since Pierce Brosnan wearing their timepieces on screen. Taylor-Johnson said at the time: "I have always had an appreciation for timepieces, but especially for Omega. 'Now, after visiting the factory, I am in awe of the skill required to manufacture such a luxurious product.' Meanwhile, Omega's CEO Raynald Aeschlimann praised him as a "versatile actor with a range that covers action, thriller, romance, and much more". The Bullet Train star has remained tight-lipped about the chance of him playing Bond. In March 2024, he told Rolling Stone UK: "'I can only really talk about the things I'm going to show and tell. So, The Fall Guy, Nosferatu, Kraven the Hunter… I'm here to promote those." He added: "I don't feel like I need to have a future drawn out for me. I feel like whatever's drawn out for me, I can f*****' do better." Earlier this year, Amazon Studios took control of the franchise from Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, while Amy Pascal and David Heyman are attached to produce the next film in the super spy series. Speaking at CinemaCon in April, Amazon MGM executives Courtenay Valenti and Sue Kroll told the convention: "We are committed to honouring the legacy of this iconic character while bringing a fresh, exotic new chapter to audiences around the world alongside Amy and David. "They're both in London getting started and couldn't be here tonight, but we wanted to thank them for what we know to make an incredible partnership.' Meanwhile, Bond legend Brosnan recently insisted Craig's successor must have "a sense of humour". Asked about the requirements an actor needs to take on the part, he told MovieWeb: "Good voice, good body, courage. Great courage. "And a sense of humour, a passion for hard work and danger. And being bold. Gotta be bold, gotta be dangerous. And you have gotta know yourself."
