"The Chronicles of Narnia" actor William Moseley recently stopped in with a reminder about the sequel: "Prince Caspian" will begin production this January. That is all.

From ComingSoon.net: "The HooK talked to William Moseley, who played Peter in Disney's The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. The actor says that shooting on The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian will still start in January:

A sequel, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, is in the works, but its producers are keeping details under wraps. "We're going to shoot in January, and that's going ahead," Moseley says, and shooting is slated to continue through the summer. "I haven't seen a completed script yet," he says. "They're keeping it really hush-hush. Whether it's even finished, I don't know."

Sounds good. Caspian was a pretty good book, and the first movie was enormously entertaining, probably the coolest children's film for adults ever.

narnia was awful

I spend the whole movie wishing that at least a couple of those kids would be kill, so the rest can see that they shouldn't be in a war wielding swords because they're not even teenagers

that attitude remind me of that woman on farenheit 9/11 was all proud and pariotic of her son going to war, and then became all tears and protest when he got kill, what did she expect?

people die in wars, those kids were all acting like it was cool and heroic, which last untill somebody gets killed, only then they get a reality check, it sould had happen on narnia (I know that on the book doesn't happen either), so people watching (especialy kids) wouldn't get the wrong idea

but most people don't learn ultill a love one dies

Well you have to realize it's a fantasy tale. Sure kids don't fight in wars, but lions don't talk, and centaurs and fauns and fairies and magical ice queens don't exist, so when they fought, you had to suspend your disbelief. And if I remember Edmond getting a sword or arrow or something to the chest that probably would've been fatal if the littlest sister didn't heal it by using her magic healing potion, which doesn't exist either.

well you know...it WAS a PG movie..so you shouldn't have expected to see any of the kids killed off. otherwise it would've been a stricter rating.

can't wait for caspian!

Im sorry but my boyfriend is in the army and serving in Iraq and we both loved Narnia. I know he could die so does he but that is totally irrelavant to wether or not the film was good!
Its a fantasy film, a film to escape in. And i dont think it glorifies or makes war look entertaining at all. I thought i was very true to the book and the characters were done superbly.
Really looking forward to Caspian

yeah, I know lions don't talk, but and kids do go to war and die there, if not in the army the die becase of colateral damages, and his attitude of:

"kids, you have to fight in my war because is the right thing to do, and since we are the good guys nothing bad will happen"

that the same line of every politician looking for support

and it's not OK because it's PG movie mostly for kids, on the contrary it makes it much worse, it preaches a horrible message wrapped in a pretty box

check out pan's labyrinth to see how this matters should be handle

They're keeping it really hush-hush? What's that about? It's not as if most of the people who will see it haven't read the book, they're aren't any plot details that you'd think should be kept under wraps, unless there's some casting decisions that aren't supposed to be known publicly yet. I'm guessing the script will add more than a few scenes not seen in the book, since it's so short and not as interesting as Wardrobe or especially Voyage of the Dawn Treader.

My reaction to Narnia..."Oh, they made a movie for all those Christian parents who wouldn't allow their idiot kids to see Lord of the Rings."

I imagine my reaction to Caspian will be more of the same.

but if you knew what was gonna happen based on what you read in the book (assuming you did read it)....why were you expecting a different outcome if the movie was appraised for faithfully following the book?

i understand what you're saying about how it's all sugarcoated. and how movies like this shouldn't be portraying it this way. but i think you're overanalyzing this waay too much and just let the movie be. if they wanted to make it like pan's labryrinth...they would've made a pan's labyrinth movie instead...which is coming out next month and looks pretty damn good IMO..and it's rated R. stating my point on how PG is to kids as R is to adults.

Um...I take it you don't really have much use for (or interest in) approaching the story as an ALLEGORY, eh? (Which, of course, is what it's designed to be interpreted as).

Thinking too literally (re: 'narrow-mindedly') will get one into all sorts of avoidable trouble.

Now if only all sequels will made from a sucessful book collection and have all the old cast/film makers return OR have a better or more complex story instead of this Direct to DVD crap.

Hello...read the book! The movie stayed very true to it. But, judging from your typing capabilities, reading may be hard for you!
