I’ve been excited about Greta Gerwig’s Narnia movie ever since it was announced as her follow-up to Barbie. But I’ve also been curious if Netflix’s promises to bring it to theaters would hold, considering the streamer’s poor reputation for putting its movies on big screens. This week, The Magician’s Nephew was officially moved from the 2026 movie schedule to early next year, and it will have a big showing in theaters. After learning about the movie’s alleged budget, I totally see why Netflix decided to give it a true theatrical run.
