  "textContent": "\n\nWe'll have to wait just a little longer before we return to Narnia. Greta Gerwig's _The Magician's Nephew_ has moved from a November 2026 release to February 12, 2027. Not only will we get to watch the new movie, we get to see it on the big screen!\n\n* * *\n\n## Here's the latest update on _Narnia: The Magician's Nephew_ before it premieres in theaters and on Netflix in 2027.\n\n### Where can I watch Narnia: The Magician's Nephew?\n\n\n\n\n_Narnia: The Magician's Nephew_ will have a full wide theatrical release starting Valentine's Day weekend before it drops on the streamer on April 2. This is the first time a Netflix film has gone straight to theaters for a full wide release (the second time it's been in theaters period, after the _KPop Demon Hunters Singalong_ in August 2025)_._\n\n### Who's in the Narnia: The Magician's Nephew cast?\n\n\n\n\nThere's been a mix of casting reports, rumors, and announcement but Deadline confirms that we'll see David McKenna and Beatrice Campbell (presumably playing Digory and Polly), with Emma Mackey as Jadis (before she becomes the White Witch), Carey Mulligan, and Kobna Holdbrook-Smith. Daniel Craig and Meryl Streep are also starring, presumably as Digory's Uncle Andrew and the voice of Aslan.\n\n### What is the plot of The Magician's Nephew?\n\n\n\n\n_The Magician's Nephew_ is based on C.S. Lewis' 1955 book of the same name, and it follows Digory and Polly in turn-of-the-Century London. When they get their hands on unexpected magic, the kids find themselves in a magical land full of wonder and terror. And, to no one's surprise, Aslan changes everything.\n\nThis is the first time the book has been adapted for the screen and I can't wait to see it — especially in theaters! Fans are up in arms over the fact it appears that Greta Gerwig might have changed the setting from the 1900s to the 1950s, but we haven't gotten official confirmation quite yet. (If it's true, that means _The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe_ could be pushed to the 1990s).\n\n**Follow Brit + Co on Facebook for the latest news on Greta Gerwig's _Narnia_.**",
