I think Tilda Swinton is GREAT she's one of my favourite actresses!I know right now she's in New York for a movie shoot,a movie called Michael Clayton so I suppose she'll be appearing at the big screen soon..and I'm sure she's got more movie shoots on the schedule.I'll be looking for more information.
 
I hope one of those future movies will very soon be The Magician's Nephew. Her performance as the White Witch was captivating; she brought Jadis to life in every way, so that now every time I go back to read the Chronicles I will always have in my mind this image of Tilda Swinton holding her head up high with that regal and cold air - ice-cold performance! I am very excited to see how she will present us with the Empress of Charn. You're right, DE92, the woman is "GREAT"!

Yes,she is :D I'm very impressed by those who can play that kind of roles,when they in fact,are very nice in real life! Tilda Swinton is that kind of person.You only need to read an interview with her to find out she's a very nice person.Not at all like the White Witch.
I agree with you,Curumo,it would be wonderful if they brought her back as Jadis in MN! No one can play that role better than she can :)
 
This was the first film I'd seen her in, but I have to say I was impressed. I mean, the character she plays is the epitome of all evil! Do you think if they'll make the Silver Chair, that she'll play the Green Lady? I always thought the White Witch and the Green Lady were basically the same person. She seems like a very talented actress. Hope we see her in more Narnia films.
 
I hope we do see Tilda in future Narnia flims that would be cool if she plays the green lady in the Silver Chair.She acted my favorite char in LWW

There is a problem with the thought that she would reappear in The Silver Chair, because Jadis and the Green Lady (despite popular belief caused by misassumptions made concerning the BBC films and the popular Harper-Collins edition of LWW) are not the same person, and you can learn this through hints made in The Silver Chair itself.

It will be great fun to see her in Magician's Nephew, though! I wonder which actress they would choose to play the Green Lady? Hmm...interesting topic! ;)
 
They'll probably find someone who sounds like her, and someone who might look a litle bit like her. But, people would probably get the two mixed up. I have to agree with CrystalWitch. I haven't seen her other movies because of the language and sexual content in them. She also looks very evil in this film!

Yeah! I hope she does reappear, her other work is good too, but a lot of sexual content in her other movies. She also looks VERY different!!

Yes,I agree! I found an image from some movie (Broken Flowers I think) and at first I didn't see it was her! I was like OH MY GOD is that Tilda Swinton?! :D But when I took a closer look I recognized her :)
 
Yeah, really. It was a great touch in the battle sequence at the end, having her wearing Aslan's mane as a trophy. A horrid thing to do, and therefore completely in-character for the woman who used the Deplorable Word.

Another nice touch was having her sleigh pulled by reindeer like in the book, but her battle-chariot drawn by polar bears (slower, but FAR more vicious).
