28 Years Later: The Bone Temple – Jimmy Crystal’s Missing Hilarity

February 17, 2026

Unleashing the Dark Comedy

So, here’s the scoop: Nia DaCosta’s 28 Years Later sequel titled The Bone Temple is a rollercoaster ride through blood, guts, and a sprinkle of dark humor. Seriously, while you’re witnessing the carnage of literal brain munchers, there are moments that will have you chuckling, even if it feels a bit wrong. But hold onto your popcorn because one of the zaniest clips got thrown straight into the cinematic abyss!

Meet Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal

Our tale centers on the not-so-charming Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal, played by the hilarious Jack O’Connell. This guy has a flair for the dramatic, channeling vibes from the legendary, albeit infamous, Jimmy Savile. In The Bone Temple, he’s convinced that Dr. Kelson, portrayed by the ever-dapper Ralph Fiennes, is none other than the devil himself—yep, that’s a stretch, even for a horror film!

The Scene That Got Snatched Away

Picture this: Jimmy and Dr. Kelson are deep in conversation, and suddenly, BAM! In struts the monstrous Alpha, Samson, ready to snatch the air from the room! Instead of tackling the horror, what does Jimmy do? He bolts! And we mean bolts in the most side-splitting, hilarious way imaginable. It’s the kind of scene that could’ve had audiences rolling in the aisles, but alas, it was deemed too jarring against the seriosity of the moment. Boo!

Why It Was Cut?

Okay, let’s be real: It might have been the peak of comedy for Jimmy, but it would have thrown off the intensity of his showdown with Kelson. Plus, it would’ve spoiled the surprise twist later on when Jimmy confuses Samson for the devil again. Because who doesn’t enjoy a little confusion along with their terror?

The Bigger Picture

Now, The Bone Temple rolls in as the second installment of what we hope will be a gut-busting trilogy spearheaded by the creative genius Alex Garland. And guess what? The one and only Danny Boyle is set to come back for the third part! Murphy fans, rejoice — Cillian Murphy will be swinging back into the picture! Although, all this excitement comes with a disclaimer: The Bone Temple made waves with the critics but flopped a bit at the box office. Even so, rumor has it that Sony is still rooting for Boyle to wrap things up.

Waiting for More Madness

With whispers of a summer 2026 shoot for the third flick, fans are crossing their fingers that we’ll see more of Jimmy’s chaotic antics, whether they’re in or out of the cutting room. So, grab your popcorn and buckle up, because this ride’s only just begun!
