Greta Gerwig’s Narnia Rocks Out to Zeppelin in First Magician’s Nephew Trailer: Watch

As the poets once wrote, it will soon be time to enter a dreamworld of magic. Netflix has released the first trailer for Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew, written and directed by Greta Gerwig and destined for an IMAX release this upcoming February. According to the official description, The Magician’s Nephew (based on the novel by C.S. Lewis) is a “sweeping adventure about the creation of Narnia.” The film, confirmed to star David McKenna, Beatrice Campbell, Emma Mackey, Carey Mulligan, Ciarán Hinds, Daniel Craig, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, Denise Gough, Susan Wokoma and Meryl Streep as the voice of Aslan the lion, marks Gerwig’s first film since the blockbuster success of 2023’s Barbie (which may never receive a sequel). Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew will debut in IMAX and non-IMAX theaters all around the world on February 12th, 2027 (with sneak previews in IMAX beginning February 10th). The film will then begin streaming on Netflix starting April 2nd, 2027. Watch the first trailer below.
