The Chronicles of Narnia in the world of cinema
After the popular audio games and animation, 2005's The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, which audiences anticipated as a kind of “Lord of the Rings for kids” was a huge hit: Tilda Swinton grossed $745 million worldwide William, a film featuring the voice of Neeson and James McAvoy. There were two parts to the successful series, but none of them achieved similar success in cinemas. Rather, there were minor failures, so filming of the other books stopped. In the past 15 years, there have been countless rumors that the series will be rebooted, and now it looks like Gerwig's dream may come true.

Anything can come after Barbie
It's a fact that if Oscar nominee Greta Gerwig wanted to adapt The Phone Book, any studio would give her a bag of money for it, because as a director she's racking up hit after hit. In addition to the aforementioned Misses, his film Lady Bird was also a huge success, with Saoirse Ronan and Timothée Chalamet playing the main characters in both films. The staggering $1.4 billion spent last year on Barbie with Margot Robbie was enough to secure Gerwig's inclusion in the project, which is already well underway, starring Ronan, who is tipped to be the next White Witch after Tilda Swinton.

Needless to say, fans are almost clamoring for Chalamet to join the crew in some capacity, and we're hoping that despite his tight schedule, he'll also be able to appear in the upcoming film. Netflix has not yet announced a premiere date. While we wait for news, here it is The original Narnia movie Preview.
