Casting for Chronicles of Narnia

Posted by:

The new Disney film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe has casted its four children and the professor. "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," the first in an exciting series of films in the making and based on the phenomenal bestselling novels by C.S. Lewis, concerns a war between good and evil, pitting the magnificent lion Aslan against the forces of darkness in the magical world of Narnia. A White Witch has used her dark powers to keep Narnia in winter for 100 years, but it is foretold that four humans will be able to help Aslan break the spell. When the Pevensie siblings -- Lucy, Susan, Edmund, and Peter -- discover the magic of Narnia by entering the enchanted world through a wardrobe, the stage is set for a classic battle of epic proportions.

The children casted are Georgie Henley, 9, from Ilkley, (West Yorkshire), who plays the lead character Lucy; Skandar Keynes, 12, from London, who plays Edmund; Anna Popplewell, 15, also from London, who plays Susan; and William Moseley, 17, from Gloucestershire, who plays the eldest brother Peter. The professor is being played by Jim Broadbent.
