Imagery from Disney's Chronicles of Narnia movies with the Netflix logo in the middle
Summary Netflix's Chronicles of Narnia reboot is sure to be a huge hit among fantasy lovers, but a prequel to The Magicians could rival it in terms of popularity. The Magicians is heavily inspired by C.S. Lewis' world, but Lev Grossman's books — and SyFy's TV adaptation — put a darker spin on the concept of Narnia. Given that The Magicians follows young adults, it has a much different feel than The Chronicles of Narnia.
Related This 2024 Fantasy Book Sounds Like The Magicians Replacement I've Been Waiting For Lev Grossman’s The Magicians gave readers a spin on a classic fantasy series, and now, this new dark fantasy novel is doing the same thing. This would make a Magicians prequel darker than the original series, but that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. After all, the bleak and realistic themes of The Magicians are what made the series so popular in the first place. And a spinoff centered on the Chatwins would also be able to dig further into Fillory's history. This would make it feel similar to The Chronicles of Narnia in some ways, perhaps even allowing it to become the Netflix reboot's biggest competition.
Of course, The Magicians being over makes it unlikely to have an impact on Netflix's upcoming Narnia reboot, but a spinoff could be a different story. If The Magicians were to get a prequel series about the Chatwins, those looking for movies and shows like The Chronicles of Narnia might be inclined to pick it up. Knowing how long Netflix takes with its new releases, they could turn to a Magicians prequel between Narnia movies.
