According to industry insiders, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader could be arriving on the Gold Coast as early as next month. Film industry workers on the Gold Coast told The Bulletin that they had been in contact with Narnia’s producers to get a crew together.
Pre-production is expected to begin as early as next month, and will remain at Warner Roadshow Studios until filming wraps in November. The Gold Coast was rumored to be a favorite location, thanks to its $2.1 million water tank. The Pacific Film and Television Commission has been working overdrive to bring Narnia to Queensland, with Sydney being the biggest competitor.
The PFTC was unable to confirm anything until the film was given the official green light, and a contract was confirmed. If the deal is signed, it’ll be the first major big-budget production on the Gold Coast since Nim’s Island and Fool’s Gold in 2007.
the sooner they start the better. 🙂
C’mon producers make up your mind and get the show rolling!! So excited. I can’t wait for things to happen.
too bad it isn’t sydney (one of the competitors) i would have loved to visit the set!!
HOORAY FOR NARNIA!!!!
I’m really excited that they’ve chosen the Gold Coast to film The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader! I live in Queensland and to be honest, I get excited when I read that big films like this are going to be recorded in Australia and best of all in my home state! I’d love to go and see all the action going on, but as a legally blind and hearing impaired person, I might miss things if I go anyway. I’m excited anyway!
OMG!!! Are you serious? They are honestly considering filming in QLD?!?!?! Gold Coast is only an hour away from me… Woot woot!!! Man i wish i was part of a casting agency right now, just being a extra in this film would be so awesome!!!
