When, I&#8217;m not sure, but there&#8217;s a script, a very good script by Alex Garland\u201d<\/em>, Boyle says. Of course, nobody can guarantee anything, and even if it&#8217;s the end of his zombie saga it&#8217;s possible he&#8217;s fighting to get a budget to match, but without going overboard like on The Bone Temple.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What&#8217;s more: <strong><em>\u201cIt&#8217;ll have plenty of Cillian Murphy. Whether he&#8217;ll strip off, I don&#8217;t know. He has an Oscar now\u201d<\/strong><\/em>. Although Murphy won it for Oppenheimer, he probably doesn&#8217;t want to pass up the chance to work again with his old friend and say goodbye to one of his essential characters. It&#8217;s worth noting that Boyle is embroiled in controversy for using some AI in the post-production of Ink, his new film, something that apparently isn&#8217;t going to dampen his future plans.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What&#8217;s more, he&#8217;s taken the opportunity to say who he thinks should be 007: <strong><em>\u201cThey should cast Jack O\u2019Connell as James Bond\u201d<\/strong><\/em>. Well then, another point for O\u2019Connell.
