So far. they are still in the “talking stage” on the prequel to the The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.In the recent podcast below, Flaherty says, “We’re still in our conversations right now with 20th Century Fox, and the C.S. Lewis Estate who own the rights to all the books. We’re all trying to come to an agreement about which film to do next and how to film it. So, we’re waiting to see where that goes.” So, for all you fans hoping the Silver Chair would come next… nothing appears to be set in stone… at least at this point.
