Anna Popplewell and William Moseley, who star in the upcoming C.S. Lewis adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, say that the adventure is about an epic battle, but much more.
When asked what she thought of the movie, Popplewell, 16, said. “I’ve been asked this question recently, and I’ve managed to sum it up with: You’ve got to change yourself before you change the world. All of the kids go on these individual journeys and have to go through these personal reforms before they can actually save Narnia and before they are able to unite as a family and deal with all the stuff they have to deal with,” she added.
Moseley added, “I think it’s about change, again, but it’s also about love,” he said. “I know that’s a weird, weird thing, and I don’t want to make it sound cliché, because it’s not a clichéd film. But it’s down to respect for others and respect for yourself, and the choices you make affect you. For me, personally, I felt that it was a moral battle: all about morality and [how] the path you choose defines who you’ll be.”
