Actress Carey Mulligan is discussing potential offers for a significant character in Greta Gerwig’s film version of the beloved C.S. Lewis series, “The Chronicles of Narnia” fantasies.
Netflix is supporting the transformation of the books into a screenplay, with Greta Gerwig’s film adapting the sixth book in the series, titled “The Magician’s Nephew“. Gerwig herself has penned the script and will be at the helm as director.
The project has progressed to the point of finalizing cast members, with famous actors like Daniel Craig, Emma Mackey, and Meryl Streep already confirmed. Now, the team is looking for promising new talents to complete the cast.
After the well-known book in the series titled “The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,” the novel “Nephew” acts as a prequel. It focuses on two children who, due to their uncle’s magical experiments, accidentally release the malevolent White Witch into early 20th century London.
As I dive into this magical world, I find myself embodying the role of Uncle Mackey, while the enchanting White Witch is being played by someone else. Meryl Streep lends her voice to the majestic talking lion, Aslan – a character in the tales who holds the title of King of Kings.
Mulligan will play the very sick mother of Digory, one of the two kids in the adventure.
Netflix declined to provide a statement. Among the producers working on the adaptation are Mark Gordon, Amy Pascal, and Vincent Sieber. The project is set to have a two-week theatrical release at IMAX cinemas towards the end of 2026, an aspect that Greta Gerwig advocated for.
As a devoted admirer, I’d like to highlight that the exceptional Mulligan has been nominated for the prestigious Oscar an impressive three times. These nominations were in recognition of her captivating performances in “Maestro”, “Promising Young Woman”, and “An Education”. Adding to her current works is the intriguing production called “Saltburn”. She’s managed by renowned agencies such as CAA, Julian Belfrage Associates, and Jackoway Austen.
