“Gorillas in the Mist” director tackling “Chronicles”
Despite Neil Burger (“The Illusionist”) being approached to helm it, directing duties on the next “Narnia” film have gone to Michael Apted (“Gorilla’s in the Mist”), according to Aint it Cool News.
Andrew Adamson, director of the first two instalments in the cash-cow series, has decided to sit this next one, the film version of “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader”, out.
“Dawn Treader” was the third Narnia book written by C.S Lewis. Chronologically, it takes place between the event described in ‘Prince Caspian’ and ‘The Silver Chair’.
In it, Lucy and Edmund, accompanied by their peevish cousin Eustace, sail to the land of Narnia where Eustace is temporarily transformed into a green dragon because of his selfish behaviour and scepticism.
Apted’s latest film is the buzzworthy “Amazing Grace”.
