Originally recorded November 12, 2006. Welcome to the Narnia Fans Cast Archive. These episodes were originally recorded between 2006 and 2009 during the early years of The Chronicles of Narnia film series. They have been preserved as part of NarniaFans.com’s history and may have been lightly edited for clarity, length, or archival presentation. Step through the wardrobe and enjoy this piece of Narnia Fans history. In Episode 16 of Narnia Fans Cast, Andy Filipovich, Paul Martin, and Roger Thomas discuss the latest developments in the search for the actor who would portray Prince Caspian, including reports that casting had been narrowed to a shortlist while additional auditions continued. The hosts speculate on when Disney and Walden Media might finally reveal the new lead and what fans could expect from the film’s marketing campaign. The episode also features another chapter from John Burkitt’s Byron on Wells, continuing the heartfelt story with a chapter centered on childhood learning, literacy, and a father’s quiet encouragement. In the second half of the show, the hosts imagine what the first Prince Caspian movie poster should look like, debate whether the Pevensie siblings or Caspian himself should take center stage in the marketing, discuss the ideal age to introduce readers to The Chronicles of Narnia, and consider why Lucy’s dagger quietly disappears from the series after The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
