In a Narnia Fans Exclusive, ~Rogue~, a moderator here at Narnia Fans’ Dancing Lawn Forums, had a chance to meet Skandar Keynes. Not only that, but they talked a bit about the filming of the next Narnia films.
This news comes hot on the heels of a new article in Entertainment Weekly about the rest of the series to be filmed, and in what order. Here’s a summary of what it says:
Prince Caspian: It’s the only other book to feature all four of the Pevensie kids. The script is currently being written. Producer Mark Johnson says that adapting this book “is proving tougher than Wardrobe.” Granat added that the film could be bumped from Christmas 2007 to Christmas 2008, due to the daunting demands of the special effects.
The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, The Silver Chair: Caspian will be followed by Dawn Treader, which features Edmund and Lucy. Walden plans to make Caspian, Dawn Treader, and Silver Chair as a trilogy of interlocking films, to be shot in that order.
The Magician’s Nephew, The Horse and His Boy, The Last Battle: It looks like they’ll, be shooting the last three books in this order, which is not even in original publishing order, but that’s alright. It brings back some characters in The Horse and His Boy that reappear in The Last Battle, so it makes sense.
And there you have it! Thanks ~Rogue~, for getting that exclusive on the back-to-back filming! And thanks to Princess Rosario for e-mailing about the EW article (even though we’d already seen it).
