Infuze Magazine sat down with Walden Media's Bob Beltz to discuss "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian."
Beltz assured them that everything that is in the book, will be in the film, with much of the same crew returning, including director Andrew Adamson. He also states that "Prince Caspian" is turning out more difficult to adapt than "The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe."
Beltz went on to discuss the four kids in the movie, which he says will all be returning.
"Skandar [Keynes] who played Edmund has grown about seven inches and looks like a full blown adolescent now. In the Lewis story, there's only a year that has taken place between the first and second book and I think that will just get left a little open ended. The big challenge is going to be Edmund I think."
Beltz also explained that the third book, "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader," has already been greenlit, but will probably not be directed by Adamson.
"We're going to try and film the next two in a way that it won't have to be two and a half years between them. We'll be able to bring them out sequentially a year apart."
"As soon as they are done filming Caspian and into post-production, then we'll have a new crew to do the filming part of 'Dawn Treader.' Then when that one goes into post-production, we're hoping to go into 'The Silver Chair,' which would be the next book into production."
"Prince Caspian" start principal photography this month, and will be released on March 16th, 2008.
