Narnia Publicist Ernie Malik e-mailed me, confirming a few cast members and adding a whole lot more! Here’s the latest list of cast members, direct from the set!
Diminutive British talent Kiran Shah (“Lord of the Rings,” “Raiders of the Lost Ark”) portrays Ginarrbrik, the White Witch’s dwarfish sleigh driver; Best Supporting Actor Oscar® winner Jim Broadbent (“Iris,” “Moulin Rouge!,” “Gangs of New York,” “Topsy-Turvy”) appears as Prof. Kirke, the Pevensie’s kindly uncle.
Director Adamson has also cast several Kiwi performers to portray a variety of human and Narnian creatures in the film, including Judy McIntosh (“Arriving Tuesday,” Ngati”) as the matriarch of the Pevensie family; Elizabeth Hawthorne (“The Frighteners,” “The Tommyknockers”) as Mrs. MacReady, the caretaker of the mansion; Patrick Kake (“Hercules: The Legendary Journeys”) as Oreius, Aslan’s head Centaur; and Shane Rangi (“Lord of the Rings”) as Gen. Otmin, the fierce Minotaur and leader of the White Witch’s army.
