The Chronicles of Narnia: The Silver Chair (film)

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Silver Chair is a fantasy film set for release some time possibly in the year 2016.

Originally, the film was slated to be the fourth in the Chronicles of Narnia film series, as announced at the end of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, but 20th Century Fox and Walden Media had then decided to make The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew the next film instead.

Recent news by Douglas Gresham states, though, that they would go with their original intention, and make The Silver Chair the next film after all, though it appears he wishes to do the films independently, without Walden.

The reason for this was the difficulties faced in the movie series from its alleged inclination to Christianity, leading the franchise to be the target of criticisms from Atheists for being Christian Propaganda, and by Christian critics for distorting Lewis's Christian Message and for spreading blasphemous works.

"The Silver Chair", as opposed to its predecessors and "The Magician's Nephew", does not contain explicit religious themes, which in turn relieves concerned fans.

It was announced on 1 October 2013 that the CS Lewis company has partnered with the Mark Gordon company to jointly develop and produce the film.

On June 25, 2015, David Magee  tweeted that he had finished the screenplay for  The Silver Chair.

On January 13, 2015, it was announced that the film would be a reboot, featuring new characters, and be the start of a new franchise.
