Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos has given an update on Greta Gerwig’s Narnia.
As a fellow gaming enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news! I, much like you, am deeply engrossed in the realm of fantastical worlds, and here’s a tidbit that will surely pique your interest: I’ve been keeping tabs on Gerwig’s latest project – a Netflix adaptation of C.S. Lewis’ magical series, The Chronicles of Narnia! This cinematic masterpiece is set to premiere in 2026, and if the hype is anything to go by, it’s bound to establish a captivating franchise for Netflix streaming platform. Can’t wait to dive into this enchanting universe together!
What did Netflix’s Ted Sarandos’ say about Greta Gerwig’s Narnia?
In conversation, Sarandos commented about Gerwig’s first Narnia film, “Before she constructed a world with Barbie, we entrusted Greta with creating the universe of Narnia. Her screenplay was exceptional, and we share a strong rapport.
As a gamer, I’d rephrase that into: “When someone questioned if Greta Gerwig insisted on the IMAX release, Ted Sarandos clarified that it wasn’t some last-minute salvaging we needed to do. Instead, we wanted to back this innovative idea and find something fresh. You see, a massive IMAX release is something we haven’t explored much before. IMAX offers an experience significantly distinct from home viewing. As I sit in the theater, the atmosphere is becoming more like home, but with IMAX, it’s truly unique. The two-week run for ‘Narnia’ will meet all the requirements for award considerations and generate a bit of excitement. We’re thrilled to be part of this event.
Currently, specific details about Greta Gerwig’s first Narnia project are still secret. Although Daniel Craig has been offered a role in the film, no official confirmation has been made regarding his decision to accept or decline. It remains uncertain who he might portray in the movie. Additionally, Charli XCX is currently being considered for the character of the White Witch, but no final decision has been announced.
Apart from Barbie, Greta Gerwig collaborated with Joe Swanberg in co-directing the film Nights and Weekends in 2008. Following this collaboration, she took charge of directing Lady Bird in 2017 and Little Women in 2019. Additionally, she has contributed to screenplays for films like Frances Ha (2012), Mistress America (2015), among others.
In November 2026, Greta Gerwig’s version of Narnia is set for a two-week worldwide release in IMAX cinemas. Later, it will be available on Netflix on Christmas 2026.
