28 Years Later: Shot on iPhone?

28 Years Later Filmed on iPhone 15 Pro Max?

Rumors suggest the upcoming zombie film, 28 Years Later, was primarily filmed using an iPhone 15 Pro Max, despite its substantial budget. This information, initially reported by WIRED, awaits official confirmation. The film, directed by Danny Boyle and starring Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes, wrapped up filming in August 2024 and is slated for release on June 20, 2025.

Paparazzi photos from the set appear to show an iPhone mounted on a professional rig, equipped with a protective cage, lens adapter, and support for full-frame DSLR lenses. Sources suggest this setup, potentially leveraging the iPhone 15 Pro Max's 4K ProRes 60FPS Log video recording and external storage capabilities via USB-C, served as the primary filming equipment. The choice of the iPhone 15 Pro Max over the newer iPhone 16 likely stems from the former's availability during production.
