With all of the Prince Caspian news that has come about on this First of April… a day that is long known to be a day of umm…. foolish behavior, I thought I’d tell you everything that I have heard.
Mr. T as Reepicheep is the most common rumor. However, that’s not what I’m going to be reporting.
This comes straight from the mouths of someone very close to the production of the next film: Prince Caspian.
Not only have they decided that it’d be smarter to film both “Prince Caspian” and “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader” simultaneously, but in a case of either sheer lunacy or the biggest marketing crossover I have ever seen, they’ve also decided to rename the ship. The film will be called “The Voyage of the Black Rock.” Where does this name come from, you ask? Anyone familiar with the first season of ABC’s hit television show “Lost” can tell you a little bit about the Black Rock. Since Disney both owns ABC and is again co-producing “The Chronicles of Narnia,” this seemed a natural fit. “Lost” will then spin-off a series called “The Lost Chronicles of Narnia,” where the crew of Narnians will have a run-in with a group of renegades called the Dharma Initiative.
I found this to be very exciting news, as I am a HUGE fan of Lost and Narnia, and together, it’s a winning combination that can’t lose.
