Fox is on a roll. Yesterday it was Ridley Scott’s The A-Team and today they rescue Narnia from the jaws of death. Seems the studio is willing to bite the bullet and swallow half of the development and production costs on The Dawn Treader, in anticipation of a Christmas 2010 release. Good to see the money they’re stealing from Warner Bros. Watchmen project is going to good use.
You’ll recall Disney dumped the franchise, after a less than robust return on Prince Caspian. The Mouse’s loss appears to be the Fox’s gain. Now all they need is a screenwriter. Unfortunately, first draft scribe Richard LaGravanese may no longer be available, leaving Walden and Fox in the lurch. The principal cast will all return, but director Andrew Adamson shifts into his producing chair, letting Michael Apted take the helm.
