Narnia Banners and Start of Production Announced

We’ve gotten ahold of a few more banners from the New York Licensing Show! They feature production art of The White Witch, her castle, Aslan, a Unicorn, a boy, possibly Edmund or Peter, a Narnian Army, and another Narnian that goes unnamed. This is a very exciting time.

Official word from the set: They begin filming on 28 June, with about 2/3 of the production based in Auckland. Then head to the South Island around mid-October to complete filming. The movie opens in the States in December, 2005, with many international territories also opening day-and-date.

The level of detail shown in these banners is promising. It’s looking more and more like the level of care taken with The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. This is great news for Narnia fans all around the world. We’ve been waiting for a long time to see great films of the books we know and love, and this production is shaping up to be a dream come true.
