When you think of The Chronicles of Narnia, you probably picture either C.S. Lewis’ books or the short-lived 2000s film series, but Netflix may be changing that. Hot on the heels of 2023’s Barbie, Greta Gerwig announced she would adapt the classic fantasy series into at least two movies for Netflix, in what’s essentially a complete reboot of the franchise.
There haven't been many updates since the initial announcement, and when frequent Gerwig collaborator Saoirse Ronan was asked about her involvement in an October appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, she said she hasn’t been asked yet because Gerwig is still writing the scripts. However, a strange source may have already revealed a key decision for this project, and it’s one that takes a risky approach to restarting the series.
