Danny Boyle has confirmed plans for a Trainspotting sequel, set for release next year to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the original film.
Based on the novel by Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting was Boyle’s first major hit following 1994’s Shallow Grave, and helped catapult Ewan McGregor to stardom. It also featured Robert Carlyle, Ewen Bremner and Jonny Lee Miller and often appears in charts of the best British films.
