Greta Gerwig releases new set photos

Netflix has finally released the first batch of official materials for Greta Gerwig’s new film.A short logo animation and a photo of the director standing on the set. The information is not overwhelming, but it is the first time this project has been released to the public.The film’s current title is Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew.

In this behind-the-scenes photo, Gerwig is wearing a tweed jacket and standing next to an Arai camera to watch the filming.In the background, you can see vintage cars, extras in turn-of-the-century costumes, and a fully constructed London street scene.The photo doesn't show off the characters or reveal the story, it's a record of a movie in progress.

Netflix’s simultaneously updated animation logo allows the name “Narnia” to officially appear in project promotions.Previously, the outside world paid a lot of attention to the film, but there were very few actual scenes from the film studio.This release did not give a long trailer, nor did it release character posters. It used logos and set photos to take the first step of publicity.

The filming scene revealed a London street scene

The details provided by the photos are very specific.The set layout points to London in the early 20th century, and the vehicles and extras on the streets have all entered the period style.Gerwig did not stand behind a monitor to pose; her focus was on the filming taking place in front of the camera.For a behind-the-scenes photo released for the first time, these contents are enough to give a clear view of the scale and direction of the production site.

The film is adapted from C.S. Lewis's series of works of the same name, and the story used is based on the magician's nephew.The book is about the origins of the world of Narnia, so the presence of old London on set is not out of the ordinary.The current public materials do not show the roles of the actors in the film, and no further plot details have been announced. What the audience can confirm is still the title, director and ongoing production traces.

Gerwig also serves as writer and director.Her previous directorial work - Barbie - allowed global audiences to see her approach to pop culture themes. This time she turned to a fantasy literary adaptation, and the focus was naturally on how she would bring the world of the book to the screen.The film crew did not define any style for the work this time. What is clearest in the picture are the camera, the real scene and the crew in action.

Release date set for February 2027

The film is scheduled to be released in theaters around the world on February 10, 2027.The announced cast includes Daniel Craig, Carey Mulligan, Emma Mackie, David McKenna and Beatrice Campbell.At this stage, the film crew has not released all the correspondence between the characters, and the first behind-the-scenes photo does not show the actors' faces.

There is still some time between now and the release. Whether to release trailers, character photos and more on-set content in the future still needs to be arranged by the film studio.The meaning of this time is very simple. The long-awaited project finally has its first official photo, which also changes “Narnia” from the project name to a visible production site.
