C.S. Lewis’ timeless adventure "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" follows the exploits of the four Pevensie siblings -- Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter -- in World War II England, who enter the world of Narnia through a magical wardrobe while playing a game of hide-and-seek in the rural country home of an elderly professor. Once there, the children discover a charming, peaceful land inhabited by talking beasts, dwarfs, fauns, centaurs and giants that has become a world cursed to eternal winter by the evil White Witch, Jadis. Under the guidance of a noble and mystical ruler, the lion Aslan, the children fight to overcome the White Witch’s powerful hold over Narnia in a spectacular, climactic battle to free Narnia from Jadis’ icy spell forever.

The film marks the first live–action directorial effort for the New Zealander Andrew Adamson (the Oscar®–winning “Shrek”, “Shrek 2”), who also co-wrote the screenplay adaptation with Emmy® Award–winner Ann Peacock (HBO’s “A Lesson Before Dying”) and scribes Christopher Markus & Academy Award®–winning filmmaker Mark Johnson.

To bring his dazzling vision to the screen, Adamson secured the talents of Oscar®–nominated production designer Roger Ford, seasoned costume designer Isis Mussenden, film editors Sim Evan–Jones and Jim May and composer Harry Gregson–Williams.
