Greta Gerwig, the acclaimed filmmaker behind the billion-dollar success of Barbie, is not one to rest on her laurels. Following the bright-pink blockbuster, Gerwig is set to take on another massive intellectual property, The Chronicles of Narnia. Netflix's CEO has praised Gerwig as an 'incredible visionary' and promised that her adaptation of the beloved source material will be 'rooted in faith' while also being 'bigger and bolder' than audiences may have imagined.
Recently named Time's Woman of the Year, Gerwig expressed her excitement for The Chronicles of Narnia, describing it as 'euphorically dreamlike' and highlighting the folklore and fairy tale elements that drew her to the project. She aims to embrace the paradoxical nature of C.S. Lewis' world, finding it compelling and rich with storytelling possibilities.
