Info in Movie News | Greta Gerwig, the director, is progressively getting more serious in preparing the adaptation of “The Chronicles of Narnia” for Netflix. Due to the starting date of production later this year, the project is attracting a lot of attention, and reports from such outlets as Deadline have been pointing to the possibility of signing Daniel Craig up, which seems to be the case.
The production team has sent out the offer to the actor of “Knives Out”, but the insiders are still silent about the final decision of Daniel Craig. It’s funny, folks, and don’t tell me that his casting was not approved because it’s mumbled and even cameras are not looking at this point.
Everyone who has been a fan of “Lady Bird” and “Barbie” should be aware of Greta’s involvement, as she is the one who will bring C.S. Lewis's fantasy world back to life. This project has been around since 2018, when Netflix announced the adaptation and declared that films and series based on the Narnia stories will be developed and shown on a regular basis.
However, Charli XCX will decide whether or not to play the role of the White Witch, a famous antagonist, and the place where the Narnia story is set. If the deal goes through, it will be a very thrilling time for this musician who will need to put aside the glory she got in her music career.
The first film in this Narnia project will receive an exclusive release on the big screen for two weeks in the global IMAX network on Thanksgiving 2026, before eventually airing on Netflix.
With this announcement, fans' enthusiasm is increasing, especially with the possibility of an actor of Craig's caliber joining, who previously succeeded in catching attention with his role as Detective Benoit Blanc in the “Knives Out” franchise. If he joins, Craig will again collaborate with Netflix after succeeding with “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” in 2022, as well as its sequel, which will be released this year, “Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery”.
Until now, Netflix and Craig have not issued official statements regarding his involvement in this ambitious project. However, one thing is certain, the latest adaptation of “The Chronicles of Narnia” is set to be one of the most anticipated films in the coming years.
