The sequel to The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is in advanced planning and looks set to be shot in New Zealand. Britain's Daily Mail reported that the film's young stars were on stand-by to appear in Prince Caspian, one of seven books in C S Lewis' Chronicles Of Narnia series. "We've got a script nearly ready, but The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe has to come out and do well first before we get the green light," executive producer Perry Moore said. It would also be shot in New Zealand, with Weta Workshop again providing special effects. [More]
