Greta Gerwig’s ‘Narnia’ Starts Production in August with seven months of shooting


Renowned director Greta Gerwig has been chosen to lead a new reboot of “The Chronicles of Narnia,” signaling the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the beloved fantasy series. Based on the iconic young adult novels by C.S. Lewis, “The Chronicles of Narnia” takes audiences on an enchanting journey through a world filled with magic and adventure, weaving an epic tale of war and peace within the mystical kingdom.

Although the novels first captivated readers in the 1950s, it wasn’t until 2005’s “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” that Lewis’ fantastical world was brought to life on the big screen.

Despite the initial success of the first film, subsequent sequels failed to live up to expectations, resulting in the premature end of the franchise. However, Netflix has now acquired the rights to the classic stories and is determined to revive the series with a fresh approach. Learning from past mistakes, Netflix is focusing on assembling a team of highly talented individuals, with Greta Gerwig leading the charge.

With Gerwig at the helm, the new adaptation of “The Chronicles of Narnia” is poised to captivate audiences once again, offering a fresh take on Lewis’ beloved tales and breathing new life into the cherished fantasy world.
