The filmmaker behind 28 Days Later and Slumdog Millionaire confirmed his participation during a special screening of his new FX series Trust reports Variety. Boyle affirmed that he is working on the script for the 25th Bond film with screenwriter John Hodge, noting that whether he directs depends on the outcome of the script process.
