The
characters of C.S. Lewis's timeless fantasy come to life once
again in this
newest installment of the "Chronicles of Narnia"
series, in which the Pevensie
siblings are magically transported back from England to the world of
Narnia,
where a thrilling, perilous new adventure and an even greater test of
their
faith and courage awaits them. One year after the incredible events of
"The
Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," the Kings and Queens of
Narnia find
themselves back in that faraway wondrous realm, only to discover that
more than
1300 years have passed in Narnian time. During their absence, the
Golden Age of
Narnia has become extinct, Narnia has been conquered by the Telmarines
and is
now under the control of the evil King Miraz, who rules the land
without mercy.
The four children will soon meet an intriguing new character:
Narnia's rightful
heir to the throne, the young Prince Caspian, who has been forced into
hiding
as his uncle Miraz plots to kill him in order to place his own newborn
son on
the throne. With the help of the kindly dwarf, a courageous talking
mouse named
Reepicheep, a badger named Trufflehunter and a Black Dwarf, Nikabrik,
the
Narnians, led by the mighty knights Peter and Caspian, embark on a
remarkable
journey to find Aslan, rescue Narnia from Miraz's tyrannical
hold, and restore
magic and glory to the land. Directed once again by veteran director
Andrew
Adamson, screenplay by Andrew Adamson and Christopher Markus &
Stephen
McFeely and produced by Mark Johnson, Andrew Adamson and Philip Steuer,
the
film reunites the original cast and creative team behind the
blockbuster first
film in the series. |
