The reveal of the zombie’s true identity left many fans discouraged, as they had hoped to see a return of Murphy’s character in one way or another in the upcoming film. 

Some fans appeared to be dealing with the stages of grief, as some were in straight denial and others left comments bargaining, unwilling to give up hope.

“Alright, this is wild. They made the most Cillian Murphy-looking guy the focused zombie in the trailer?” a fan asked.

“Because Murphy would have cost too much money. Could still be the same character, though,“ another theorized.

“Wait, I’m confused… so they used CGI to make him look like Cillian?“ said one fan, unable to accept the truth.

“Nice try, buddy. We know Cillian when we see him,“ another stated, unwilling to believe the model’s words.

Cillian Murphy has yet to be confirmed to appear on-screen in 28 Years Later. While he is serving as an executive producer for the film, there’s no official word about his return as Jim, the character he portrayed in 28 Days Later. 

However, given the storyline’s continuity and Murphy’s connection to the original film, his character could appear in future installments, especially since 28 Years Later is planned to be the first in a new trilogy.

“Where did they find a real life zombie?” joked one fan, as others were impressed by the model’s unique looks
