As we all know, sadly, Narnia executive producer Perry Moore died on Thursday. In interviews with his family, there are extremely interesting tidbits about Narnia 4, which will apparently not be Silver Chair like most of us had expected, but Magician’s Nephew.
“The night before he died, he had an hour-long conversation with his mom,” father Bill Moore said as he waited at the airport for a flight to New York. “He had gotten all the good news he could possibly get.”
Perry Moore told his family he’d secured financing for another Narnia movie, “The Magician’s Nephew.” (source)
So is Magician’s Nephew greenlit? It looks like it may be. We have no official statement yet, of course, but we will keep you updated when we learn anything.
Tilda Swinton, who would play a large role in The Magician’s Nephew, and who also brings an Oscar to the Narnia series, said the following:
I really do hope they do another Narnia, it should be The Magician’s Nephew as that’s my favourite. (source)

Thanks to AslansCountry.com reader ‘utterReep’ for the heads-up!
cooooooooool thanxs Mathew…hmm now our big question is what is happening with the silver chair….hmmm…..
YES!
The MAGICIAN’S NEPHEW is my favorite or perhaps tied with THE LAST BATTLE and all the others. Weird I know, but I just had to give a big YIPEE!
you have good taste,, my friend.
YES! MN! WOO HOO!
Welcome to Charn. A place full of an odd green mist.
You heard it here first folks! Just kidding….I hope.
Don’t be too surprised if they try to tie in the Green Mist somehow… I just hope not too much.
Yeah I thought the green mist tied in to Silver Chair? i’m confused now…
heck, tie it into anything you want, just make another movie!!
wow…..
But…WHAT ABOUT WILL POULTER?!? I mean, I’m over the moon that it sounds like another Narnia film might be being made- but you just CAN’T let a brilliant actor like Will Poulter go! If you leave it, his age might cause concern if we pick up Silver Chair after this!
this is my biggest concern! I hate the thought of losing Will as Eustace. My thought is Tilda will be the same in a few years but Will will not (age wise). He is perfect as Eustace and now i can not imagine someone else taking his place.
I totally agree! That would be terrible!
We need Will Poulter as Eustace! He’s great!
ya nobody can wine better than will poulter lol

NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Silver CHAIR!!!!!! Will Poulter will be too old to use him!!!!
i know!!!!!!!!!!u took the words right out of my mouth!
SILVER CHAIR!!!!!!!!!!!
AAAAHHHHHH!! NOOOOO-THEYVE GOT TO USE WILL, NO ONE ELSE SHOULD PLAY EUSTACE!! I mean of course im happy about the Magicians Nephew, but Will would b to old after this film (if its happening) and if they were to go back and film Silver Chair next!!
Look, with make up Will will look younger and it’ll be all right. OK?
I LOVE MN!!!!
of course! will is now eighteen and in the movie VDT he looks younger than 18!! so, if they make the silver chair, they’ll find a way!!however, i think they aren’t going to make the silver chair: i think they will make magicians nephew and then last battle (i would be VERY happy if they make this 2films)….it doesn’t make sense filming magicians nephew now, and then silver chair!
Well, how the heck will they MAKE HIM LOOK SHORTER?
Does any1 know the answer to this? Seriously…
Exactly my thoughts…. this is really annoying
but have you considered the huge gap there would be between SC and LB if they do SC now? Will is going to age allot then as well.
In a Norwegian newspaper, it said that Perry Moore wasplanning a fourth Narnia movie when he died.
Magician’s Nephew?? I like MN, but… what about Eustace/Will???
i KNOW!
ya!
they are waiting for Will to get older so he and jill pole can hook up and get married in the end of SC- JILLSTACE!!!!
Please NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Goodness,I don’t want JILLSTACE.
OMGoodness that’s great!! I’ve really hoped they’d do the Magician’s Nephew!!!!
ME TOO! THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!
thank Aslan its gonna be MN!!!!!!!!!! yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes! I agree (:
R u the real Georgie Henley? I promise not to ask u a million questions like obsessed fans do.
I was more hoping that the Silver Chair would be next. I don’t mind the Magician’s Nephew, but I’m just thinking about Will Poulter. I mean, his age is still fine for SC, but in a couple of years… I don’t really think so.
He just needs make up and he’ll be fine for SC

MN THIS IS GREAT NEWS I WANTED THIS SO MUCH
STILL HOPE SC WILL BE MADE WITH WILL IN IT
NO IT WONT! make up doesnt change everything! he already grew so tall! we need to to sc first then mn!
I totally agree with you. They should really make SC first then MN.
Wow, that’s great news! This is going to be exciting!
Mark Johnson stated that he wanted SC to come first… weird.
yeah, but what Tilda says, goes!
Wow!
Yes! This is my favorite! Totally AWEESOME
I wouldn’t get too excited yet. It’s just kind of weird that it was strongly hinted The Silver Chair would be done next considering Michael Apted was trying to connect The Silver Chair to Dawn Treader, and a particular name dropping of Jill Pole. One possible suggestion from me, though very unlikely, could maybe be, both Magician’s Nephew and The Silver Chair could both be lit at the same time. After all, they have completely different characters. But probably unlikely like I said. Either way, I hope the next Narnia film is dedicated to Perry Moore.
It must be dedicated to Perry Moore! That’s interesting that they could do two at once…. but would that harm their finances and income?
Yeah, two films at once with a large special effects could be a bit costly, but if the films have closer release dates, they could potentially do better, which I think is a reason other film series like Harry Potter do better, because the films are released within at least a year of each other, whereas Narnia started strong, but maybe lost interest do to being released two years apart. This is my theory, but I’m not a box office analyzer.
OMG!!!!!! I just finished reading this book to my siblings
they fell in love with it.. I can’t wait!!! RIP Perry!!!
All right is there any parts for a 20 yr old girl in Magician’s Nephew? Maybe the cabby’s wife?
Oh, maybe I could be Polly!!! LOL
No matter which film is produced first, all of the fans will never be made happy. It is great that there is going to be ANY Narnia movie made!!! I ‘m just glad that Walden Media is keeping the series alive.
Yes, we’re all overlooking the fact that this means, almost definitely, that THERE WILL BE ANOTHER FILM!! Yay!
hey if they could make each one for $120 mil. then it would only take $240 mil. for both sc and mn only $15 mil. more then pc
$120 mil is very cheap…i think it would be needed at least 160 for mnephew
Don’t get me wrong, I’m unbelievably THRILLED that they’ll be continuing the series, but they really should do The Silver Chair next! It’s not so much that it would be odd to go out of order, but the actors would age unaccordingly! Yes, I know there’s make-up and it does an amazing job, but it’s not magic! They WILL age and even the best make-up can’t do everything. They really should do The Silver Chair next, and then maybe film The Last Battle at the same time as The Magician’s Nephew. They can release The Magician’s Nephew and then work on The Horse and His Boy. They’ll release The Horse and His Boy next. And then finally, they will release The Last Battle as the finale to the chronicles. And having The Last Battle made in chronological order will mean the actors will be the right ages to where they left off in The Silver Chair.
yeah I agree with you…because it has no order….they should do it before…but they didn’t so they can wait some time and finish the rest of the parts and then do mn the horse and his boy…
they obviously aren’t uptight about the ages, hence Caspian played by a 28 year old.
Haha I know! Eustace may turn into the same “old caspian” problem….
I recognize u from Narnia web. Did u want 2 b Jill pole?
mn and sc are great books! although i wanted sc next, mn is fine. i hope they green lit it soon because i cant wait until the next narnia flim!!!!!!!!!!!
i really wanted to be jill, but i think polly would be more suitable for my age. i’m still doing my jill audition video, but i will try out for polly
What??? I hope the silver chair is greenlit instead. I want ti be Jill pole!!!!!
I like MN.But for people SC would,I guess have been more engrossing as it has Eustace and they mentioned Jill at the end of VDT.And Will is already taller than he was in VDT..He’ll grow up too much..Or they should do both the movies together and release SC first..then after a short interval bring out MN while the spirit is still there.Maybe that would make more profit,but it’s hard right? It all seems confusing as ,up till now no one had mentioned MN being next. Everyone was on making SC if there was another movie..Well,wait,pray and watch out..That’s all we can do..And I’m just glad that there is going to be another movie..
For Aslan
I think they have to make magican´s nephew first , because if they do The Silver chair they must make The Last battle , and then it will make no sense with rings.
I do not think Will will be too old, cuz Ben’s 28 and his character is about 20? Will look very young and I do not think he will grow up so much in like two years^^
Don´t get me wrong, i would love to se The Silver chair but it would not work if they choosed to do The Last battle to, and i really want it to be a movie
I seriously hope they could do the Silver Chair Next, as more people want to see it, and Will Poulter certainly isn’t getting any younger. Anyone agree?
I totay agre. Hey, I want to be Jill pole as well! Are you on Narnia web? I might recognize u from there.
I am I am!:D I really want to be Jill. I think that they should stay with the order they originaly started out with. It’s the way C.S. Lewis originaly wrote it: LWW, PC, VDT, SC, HHB, MN, LB. I also think that Will Poulter is going to be to old for SC if they wait much longer, no matter how much make-up they use. Can someone tell me if I look like Jill Pole? I have light skin, medium brown hair, and green eyes. Thanks
Yeaaa i know you Narniafan16 Do you remember me? and I want to be Polly
and Narniarose: You sound like you look like Jill Pole
i wish you luck and could you tell me if i look like Polly Please?
I Have Long Blonde Wavey Hair With blue eyes and my acting link is here>>>>
http://www.youtube.com/user/NotSoConfidentMe?feature=mhee <<<<<<<< Could you tell me what you think please it would mean alot Thank youuu Guysss Sincerly…Shayna
The should do the silver chair next because almost 90% of fans have voted for it and if they release the magician’s nephew maybe the reception won’t be the same.Plus the magician’s nephew would be going back to the 3 stories we have already seen and right now most of people want to see a sequel not a prequel…I mean,of course a want to see magician’s nephew I just think is not the right time yet………….Oh! I also hope they release an Extended Edition of the dawn treader cause i heard they cut like 30 minutes of story and I felt the film was too short and lacked parts thouhg of course i love it.I’m a huge Narnia fan and I need an Extended Edition of this one.
Exactly! I mean, how will they make money if no one is interested in seeing it?
The silver chair should definitely be filmed next. I am really working hard to become Jill pole. It’s. My biggest dream I have ever had!!!
I really,really hope that fox and walden release an extended edition of the dawn treader because I felt that there’s a lot of things missing like by example:Ramandu didn’t appear in the film and he’s an important character,also I loved the coriakin’s island part but I think it was too short and it needed to be more deep.Also they didn’t put the part when Eustace was supposed to see a dragon dying in the treasure and I heard the film was going to be longer but the cut like 30 minutes so it wouldn’d be so hard to make an extended edition….A lot of people want an extended edition so I guess they should really make one of this movie.
IKR ?
I was so mad cause Ramandu didn’t appear.
I was so excited to see Ramandu and the white birds.
I wanted to hear how they made the song.
yay!!! i am happyyy!!! at least we get another narnia flim!
they will mke magicians nephew because Eustace dont do the great thing
in Voyage
I’m glad they’re making a 4th movie. I wondered if they would make Horse and His Boy next since it stars the Pevensie kids
WHAT??? how could this happen? I have been working so hard to be Jill in the silver chair. Well the good news is that I have more time to search for an agent, and tone my acting skills.
anyone here want to become Polly or Jill?
I’m not that interested in becoming polly, though there r probably less people auditioning for her.please comment on this!
I don’t think they should do MN next because apparently people might get confused! There r people who didnt read the books but watched the movie. So they might think that digory is eustace and Polly is Jill.WRONG. or maybe they will wonder where eustace and the pevnsies went. See how the MN is not a good idea right now? Silver chair should definitely be next! Who agrees? Please post a comment!!! :/
Besides the fact that after suffering through DT, I’m not all that enthused about another Narnia movie, I do think Silver Chair should be next…
Has anyone watched Ramona and beezus? I just saw it, and I noticed they used the same exact three movie makers as Narnia! Walt Disney, walden media, and FOX.well it was sort of Narnia-like if you know what I mean. Some of The special affects and stuff
Hey! Don’t worry about Will’s height! They can make him look younger with make-up and I bet not all of the hobbits in The Lord of the Rings were actually short. Computers can do amazing things nowadays.
Of course Tilda wanted the Magicians Nephew…LOL. After all, she would actually have a starring role again…
if ever this movie comes to theaters, i wish Freddie Highmore or Ed Sanders would play Digory in this movie. their perfect for the role
I will appreciate any new Narnia movie!!!!!
I really do enjoy how the analogies work between the biblical side of things and the Narnian side of things. Magicians nephew is a great connection with how adam and eve sinned and then evil entered the world. ElykRindo07, I am going to look those people up, because I’m not familiar with those actors. Thanks for sharing!

I think you are right , ElykRindon07. Freddie Highmore looks good! also I think Callan Mcauliffe would look good, also.
