Episode description as stored

Netflix is developing a big-budget film adaptation of C.S. Lewis’s The Magician’s Nephew, directed by Greta Gerwig and slated for a theatrical release in early 2027. This production serves as a prequel to the famous Narnia series, exploring the origins of the magical world and moving the story’s setting from the early 1900s to 1955. The project features a high-profile cast including Emma Mackey as the White Witch and Meryl Streep as the voice of Aslan, backed by a significant $280 million budget. Unlike previous Netflix releases, this movie will have a long theatrical window before arriving on the streaming platform. The film marks the beginning of a planned cinematic franchise, emphasizing a tactile, "hand-knitted" aesthetic through the use of IMAX cameras and practical effects. Ultimately, the source details how this ambitious project aims to re-envision the beloved literary canon for a modern global audience. "Open a book. Discover a world."
