    according to TriStar, The Silver Chair’s new creative team plans to “tackle the continuing story with a fresh approach to capture a broad global audience"



    It's an English story for English children.  By the sound of this, Eustace will be a Somalian, and his classmate Jill will be Chinese.

    They wanna reboot the franchise.  I guess they have no choice, since they failed to keep up with production, and all of the actors are now adults.  

    Once more, a studio bastardizes a franchise, completely ignoring original source material.  

    I look forward to hearing about it on Midnight's Edge.

  • If it's done for the sake of diversity and nothing else, then it's poor filmmaking and characterization. Usually these characters are also flaming stereotypes.

  • Curious, is it by the same company that made the other most recent movies in the series?
