Word out of San Diego:
[I]n Hall H, Disney delighted fans with a healthy taste of the upcoming The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. While much of his behind-the-scenes department heads sat on stage, director Andrew Adamson appeared live via satellite from Prague, where he introduced the handsomely chiseled Ben Barnes, who will play Caspian in this film and the next three in the Narnia saga. They showed unfinished footage, brought out splendidly intricate costumes and showed off an animatronic saytr named Tyrus. Producer Mark Johnson also told the crowd that the studio intends to make all seven Narnia novels into feature films, bringing one to the screen every May starting in 2008.
Emphases mine.
Interesting bit about Caspian being in "the next three" movies: he's central to Dawn Treader, obviously; but he's an old man in Chair, and in any case he's only "onscreen" long enough to die. He reappears hale and hearty in Battle, but that's not out 'til 2013 (!) Maybe they're shooting all the films simultaneously, like I always thought they should... |
