Netflix is reviving C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia with Greta Gerwig directing and writing at least two films. The first movie is set for theatrical release on November 26, 2026, before streaming a week later. Unlike Disney, which struggled with the franchise, Gerwig plans to adapt the stories in chronological order, starting with The Magician's Nephew, which introduces key characters and details the origins of the Narnia universe. This strategic pivot aims to resonate better with audiences and avoid pitfalls of past adaptations.
