>Actress Emma Mackey spoke during an interview about her role in the upcoming Narnia film. She plays Jadis, the White Witch, and mentioned that filming is set to begin sometime in September. She described the film as "the next Lord of the Rings."

So, /tv/, can Greta Gerwig pull it off? She’s starting with The Magician’s Nephew.

Isn't this book basically Narnia Genesis?

This is gonna be so bad...

>>212769428 (OP)
Good luck with that.

>>212769481
You mean recognizable IP? Why wouldn't they?

Greta's probably wishing she would shut the fuck up and not say that type of shit. She's just setting it up for ridicule.

Unknown books forced into movies that despite aggressive promotion barely got their money back, yay we want more. It smelled like an evangelical attempt at being cool.

Craig is evil

>nooo I won't give my children inheritance! They have to make it on their own!!! Even though I got a shitload of money from my parents before becoming a famous actor and I was rich! He he he he
I hate his mentality

>>212770826
Meryl Streep might not play Aslan after all, we still don't know who will get the role since they delayed filming from july to fall (september)

>>212769428 (OP)
I wish it was a musical like wicked

It's pretty much the anti-civilizational stance, since that's all civilization really is: a passing on to future generations. Fortunately, men like Craig always end up dominated by aristocrats with superior reproductive strategies.

Whatever, I'm too old to get angry anymore

>adapting Narnia again
well third times the charm I guess

>>212769428 (OP)
Didn't they make god a woman in this one?

They won’t have the white witch fighting like Gandalf, so it won’t be the next Lord of the Rings.

Seriously. Seeing the white witch fight like a barbarian queen was pretty awesome.

Thats essentially what she was.
We get her origin in the Magicians Nephew and she raises hell in London.

Rank them

Scrubbing out all the Medieval Christian Mysticism is without completely gutting the narrative is going to be hard.
Especially with the more meta ones like the Last Battle

Is it traditional to get the ugliest little girl possible to be Lucy?

Who else had a bbw fetish because of Lucy in the bbc series

The beavers the fucking beavers

Daniel Craig was in The Golden Compass, which was an atheist's seething response to Narnia. Hard to think that's coincidental.

>Greta Gerwig
I won't stand for classic works of literary fiction being used as a vehicle to peddle feminist propaganda. Whoever thought it was a good idea to give this person a Narnia movie to direct should be barred from ever having any say in movie production ever again.

>Tolkien was bothered by this scene because Lewis was distorting and sentimentalizing the myth ("Narnian Exile" 41). He suggests, "[I]f Lucy had really met a faun--that is, a satyr--the result would have been a rape, not a tea party" (Christopher, C.S. Lewis 111).

Why was Tolkien so autistic
