The streaming service will develop TV series and movies based on The Chronicles of Narnia fantasy novel series by C.S. Lewis, the company announced Wednesday.
Lewis’ series of novels, which began in 1950 with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and ended in 1956 with The Last Battle, tells the story of the magical land of Narnia.
In each novel, children from our world get magically transported to Narnia, where they help the lion Aslan protect Narnia from the forces of evil.
The series has been adapted numerous times over the years in various forms; most recently in a film series that started in 2005 with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
