The phrase ‘Shot on iPhone’ isn’t a novel concept for Apple, but it’s set to receive its most significant showcase ever. The upcoming summer blockbuster, 28 Years Later, was filmed entirely using an iPhone 15 Pro Max, and the initial trailer is nothing short of spectacular.
28 Years Later trailer reveals the possibilities of iPhone filmmaking
28 Years Later is the long-anticipated sequel to the 2002 classic, 28 Days Later. As reported by WIRED, the entire film was shot using an iPhone.
This film promises to be a genuine Hollywood blockbuster, with a major theatrical release scheduled for June 20, 2025. Directed by the Academy Award-winning Danny Boyle, it features an impressive cast including:
- Jodie Comer
- Aaron Taylor-Johnson
- Ralph Fiennes
- possibly Cillian Murphy as well
Indeed, Boyle captured all the footage with the iPhone 15 Pro Max (among several devices), rather than opting for the latest iPhone 16 Pro.
So, how does it look? Check it out for yourself. Here’s the trailer:
DMN’s Perspective
Using an iPhone for filming seems fitting for a zombie thriller like this, where a less polished appearance is often desired.
Nevertheless, the trailer is incredibly impressive. It doesn’t feel like an ‘iPhone movie’; instead, it appears reminiscent of any major Hollywood production.
