Apologies first of all for being so slow to respond to a past news posting concerning Netflix and Narnia movies. This Narnia website has changed enormously in recent times. Will any future Narnia films actually be going through an Odeon cinema release? Such as The Silver Chair for example. It costs a great deal of money and time trying to keep up with all the entertainment providers these days compared with only 10 years ago.
