Netflix to adapt ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’ into ‘new series and film projects’

For the first time ever, an entertainment company has managed to get rights to all seven The Chronicles of Narnia books. And Netflix plans to take big advantage of this. The streaming service will be producing “new series and film projects” based on the children’s fantasy books that came out between 1950 and 1956. This might be the first time we’ll get to see the series adapted in its entirety. Previous cinematic adaptation attempt stopped after 2010’s The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.

This isn’t the first time Netflix has acquired rights to books and adapted them into shows or movies. They are currently in the middle of a three-season adaptation of A Series of Unfortunate Events.
