From Film Star to Punk Princess: Megan Burns' Unexpected Journey
SCANDALOUS COMEBACK!
Megan Burns, the 16-year-old actress who stole our hearts as Hannah in Danny Boyle's groundbreaking zombie movie "28 Days Later" (2002), has been living a life that's almost unrecognizable from her rebellious punk princess persona. But, darling, it seems she's finally ready to shake off the dust and reclaim her spot in the spotlight!
Just last year, Megan reactivated her Instagram account under her alter ego, Betty Curse – yes, that's her stage name! As Betty, she released music under Island Records, her debut album "Here Lies Betty Curse" dropping in 2006. But after taking a break from the music scene, it seemed like our girl had hung up her microphone for good.
FROM ACTRESS TO ARTIST MANAGER
Fast-forward to today, and Megan's still an artist manager, but she's got a new project brewing – or should we say, "unearthed"? Her Instagram post announcing her return to the music scene read: "Greetings Darlings, apologies for my long absence... I found myself involved in the activity of living and lost track of time. How quickly it passes when one must remember to breathe and feed." Deep breaths, indeed!
A MOTHER'S LOVE
As we mentioned earlier, Megan's a mother to a 12-year-old daughter, Scarlett (born in 2012). We can only imagine what kind of rockstar mom she is – juggling gigs with playdates!
28 DAYS LATER... AGAIN?
Now that the cat's out of the bag about Betty Curse's return, fans are eagerly awaiting new music from this punk princess. But did you know that Megan has been keeping busy in the acting world, too? Her last role was in a short film called "Intruders" (2018). We can only speculate what she's working on now...
28 YEARS LATER... FINALLY!
And speaking of "28 Days Later," we're just one week away from the highly anticipated sequel – yes, you read that right, 20 years after the original! Alex Garland and Danny Boyle have assembled an A-list cast featuring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, Ralph Fiennes, Jack O'Connell, and child actor Alfie Williams. Critics are weighing in on this new zombie horror movie ahead of its release.
A DECADE OF WAITING...
The original "28 Days Later" revolutionized the genre with its fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled action and groundbreaking special effects. Now, we're about to experience a whole new wave of terror as the virus spreads to a secluded island – Lindisfarne – where our heroes will fight for survival.
CRITICS WEIGH IN
Rotten Tomatoes have handed the movie an impressive 94% critic approval rating after gathering reviews from over 91 film critics! The verdict is in: this new movie is a must-see, darling!
