Just under a year after the first film in the new 28 Years Later trilogy was released, the second movie, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, is now showing in UK cinemas.
In this movie, Dr. Kelson, played by Ralph Fiennes, tries to understand the source of a mysterious infection. Meanwhile, Alfie Williams as Spike gets caught up in a dangerous situation after encountering the cruel Jimmy gang, whose leader, Sir Jimmy Crystal, is portrayed by Jack O’Connell.
Let me tell you, the music in this film really elevates the experience. Not only does it have a fantastic, sweeping score, but the filmmakers also cleverly use pre-existing songs – what we call ‘needle drops’ – at just the right moments. There’s one song in particular that hits so hard, I guarantee it’ll stay with you long after the credits roll.
The movie’s soundtrack includes contributions from several sons, and many are curious about who wrote the music. Here’s a complete guide to the soundtrack for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple.
Who composed the score for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple?

Icelandic musician Hildur Guðnadóttir composed the music for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. She’s also known for her work on films like Sicario 2: Soldado, Joker, Tár, Women Talking, A Haunting in Venice, and Joker: Folie à Deux.
Guðnadóttir composed the music for the HBO and Sky series Chernobyl, and also for Nia DaCosta’s film Hedda, which she directed before The Bone Temple.
Unlike the first “28 Years Later” movie, which featured music by the Scottish hip hop group Young Fathers, this film has a different soundtrack.
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple – Full list of songs

The soundtrack to 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple features several well-known songs, including three tracks by Duran Duran. These songs – “Ordinary World,” “Girls On Film,” and “Rio” – are part of the record collection belonging to Dr. Kelson (played by Ralph Fiennes).
The movie includes songs by Radiohead, specifically “Everything in Its Right Place,” and prominently features Iron Maiden’s “The Number of the Beast” in a powerful and unforgettable scene.
The album concludes with a return of “In the House, In a Heartbeat,” the song originally created for and used in the film 28 Days Later, composed by John Murphy.
In addition to the featured songs, the film boasts a new musical score composed by Hildur Guðnadóttir, and it’s now available to listen to in its entirety.
