"The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" movie is the sequel to "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" (2005) and "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian" (2008). Return to the hope and wonder of C.S. Lewis's beloved world—via the fantastic Narnian ship, The Dawn Treader, in 3D, in "The Chronicles of Narnia: the Voyage of the Dawn Treader."
In this holiday motion picture event, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their cousin Eustace, are swallowed
into a painting and transported back to Narnia and the magnificent ship The Dawn Treader. They join King Caspian and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep for a mission which holds the fate of Narnia itself. The courageous voyagers overcome their own greatest temptations, as they travel to mysterious islands; have fateful confrontations with magical creatures and sinister enemies; and reunite with their friend and protector, the Great Lion Aslan.
The new film is based on the third of Lewis's seven-book "The Chronicles of Narnia" series. Published between 1950 and 1956 and long regarded as one of literature's most enduring and imaginative works, Lewis's books have sold over 100,000,000 copies in over 50 different languages. The movie based on Lewis's first "Narnia" book, "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," became one of 2005's biggest earners. In 2008 came the second film, "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian," one of that year's biggest hits.
Now, for "The Chronicles of Narnia: the Voyage of the Dawn Treader," Fox 2000 Pictures and Walden Media have joined forces to bring the film series back to its illustrious roots - with everything that delighted the books' and films' legions of fans. Distinguished filmmaker Michael Apted, whose many credits include the James Bond film "The World Is Not Enough," as well as the award-winning hits "Gorillas in the Mist" and "Coal Miner's Daughter," is at the helm of the new film. Returning cast members from the first two films are Georgie Henley as Lucy Pevensie and Skandar Keynes as Edmund Pevensie, and Tilda Swinton makes a memorable re-appearance as The White Witch. From the second film, Ben Barnes reprises the role of Caspian. London-based teenager Will Poulter portrays Lucy and Edmund's annoying cousin Eustace. British comic actor Simon Pegg is the voice of Reepicheep, the valiant, swashbuckling mouse, and Liam Neeson returns as the voice of the all-powerful ruler of Narnia, Aslan the Lion.
While relinquishing the director's chair this time out, filmmaker Andrew Adamson ("Shrek," "Shrek 2") returns as one of the film's three producers, reteaming with his colleagues from the first two Narnia epics —Academy Award winner Mark Johnson ("Rain Man") and industry veteran Philip Steuer ("The Rookie," "The Alamo"). Also back for their third Narnian adventure are executive producers Perry Moore and C.S. Lewis's stepson, Douglas Gresham. The screenplay was written by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely ("The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian") and Michael Petroni.
The story's human cast is once again complemented by a gallery of original creatures brought to life through the combined efforts of live-action work and CGI animation, the latter guided by visual effects supervisor Angus Bickerton ("The Da Vinci Code," "Angels and Demons"). Oscar winners Howard Berger and Tami Lane, also back for their third Narnia film, oversee the prosthetic makeup effects for many of the new characters, including otherworldly creatures called Dufflepuds.
