As reported two months back by Skewed and Reviewed and other publications, Disney is looking to cash in on the numbers generated by "The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe". Now comes confirmations via the A.P. C.N.N. and more that the sequel Prince Caspian is well under way.
NEW YORK (AP) -- A sequel to the megahit family fantasy "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" is slated to hit theaters in late 2007.

on Mar 15 2006 02:12 PM who didn't see this coming? honestly. I absolutely loved the first one. Can't wait for this to hit the big screen! (Reply to this) |
on Mar 16 2006 04:25 PM Narnia fills that void for wholesome family entertainment, I suppose. Hope it makes everyone big bags of money; if they get rid of the kid who played Edmund, maybe I'll see the sequel. (Reply to this) |
