After the colossal success of Barbie, Greta Gerwig is setting her sights on a world far removed from Malibu and plastic pink dream houses. The acclaimed director’s next project will see her stepping into the magical realm of C.S. Lewis’s The Chronicles of Narnia, a Netflix adaptation that has been generating buzz for quite some time. Now, the first bit of casting news has finally dropped, and it’s got fans speculating wildly.
What remains unclear is which of Lewis’s beloved novels Gerwig will tackle first. While there has been some speculation that The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe — arguably the most iconic of the Narnia series — will be the starting point, Netflix has yet to confirm this. In fact, Gerwig is expected to direct at least two films, leaving fans wondering whether she might explore one of the less frequently adapted books or offer a fresh take on the classic tale.
“Obviously, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is kind of the preeminent one, but there’s such an interesting narrative form if you read all of them.”
