A musical might seem like an odd choice, considering his past work, but Boyle calls it "the most difficult thing to do as a film [but] it's the Holy Grail if you can do it [right]." He isn't revealing what the subject matter or style would be, but according to the report, "Boyle admitted he's actually already taken some preliminary steps to develop a musical with the English band I Am Kloot."

This toe-tapping news comes very soon after Boyle also told MTV that he may direct another 28 Days Later follow-up. He doesn't give specifics on the plot, saying only that he has an idea that "might be silly really."

Hmm. How silly are we talking, here? A bunch of the "infected" did wind up in Paris at the end of the sequel. Could enraged, flesh-tearing singers and dancers be on the horizon? Would they be any more annoying than Parisian street mimes?
