Dawn Treader Preview

Staff Writer: Samuntha Mackenzie

The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe began the Narnia franchise with an impressive 3/4 of a billion dollars. Prince Caspian is a respectable, but not blockbuster, near 1/2 a billion. Mixed reviews about the Dawn Treader's future are being lauded.

Some say the third film will fall flat. Others are more hopeful.

OHG hopes that the Dawn Treader will surpass the first film and capture the hearts of the worldwide audience.


Summary: This time around—Edmund and Lucy Pevensie (Keynes and Henley), along with their pesky cousin Eustace Scrubb (Poulter)—find themselves swallowed into a painting and on to a fantastic Narnian ship headed for the very edges of the world. Joining forces once again with their royal friend Prince Caspian (Barnes) and the warrior mouse Reepicheep (voiced by Izzard), they are whisked away on a mysterious mission to the Lone Islands, and beyond. On this bewitching voyage that will test their hearts and spirits, the trio will face magical Dufflepuds, sinister slave traders, roaring dragons and enchanted merfolk. Only an entirely uncharted journey to Aslan's Country—a voyage of destiny and transformation for each of those aboard the Dawn Treader—can save Narnia, and all the astonishing creatures in it, from an unfathomable fate.

Release date: December 10, 2010.
