Netflix is striving to build a movie franchise that resonates with audiences, pivoting to adapt C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia under Greta Gerwig's direction. Carey Mulligan is in talks to play Mabel Kirke, a small but pivotal role as the mother of the protagonist. Gerwig's adaptation will begin chronologically with The Magician's Nephew, diverging from Disney's non-chronological approach. With an impressive cast and significant financial investment, Netflix aims to create a series that maintains viewer engagement and garners critical acclaim, something their previous film endeavors have struggled to achieve.
Netflix is placing a big bet on a fantasy adaptation, with Carey Mulligan joining the cast of Greta Gerwig's Chronicles of Narnia, set for a theatrical release.
Unlike Disney's adaptations, Gerwig's planned Narnia series will start with The Magician's Nephew, the sixth book, focusing on Narnia's origins.
