The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian 2008

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is a 2008 high fantasy film, directed by Andrew Adamson, and written by Adamson, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. It is based on the 1951 novel Prince Caspian, the second in the children's book series by C. S. Lewis, and the second installment in The Chronicles of Narnia film series. Georgie Henley, Skandar Keynes, William Moseley and Anna Popplewell reprise their roles from the previous film. The plot involves the four Pevensie siblings returning to Narnia to aid Prince Caspian in his struggle for the throne against his corrupt uncle, King Miraz. Work on the script began before the first film, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, was released, so that filming could begin before the actors grew too old for their parts. Director Andrew Adamson wanted to make the film more spectacular than the first. The Narnians were designed to look wilder as they have been hiding from persecution, stressing the darker tone of the sequel. The filmmakers also took a Spanish influence for the antagonistic race of the Telmarines.
