Great news: Greta Gerwig filmed “Narnia” again! In 2005 the legend came from the Pevensie siblings, Mister Tumnus and the speaking (and pointing out!) Löwen Aslan on the big screen, the continuation of Prince Caspian followed in 2008, and in 2010 the last part of the fantasy epic "The trip on the dawn".
