S. Lewis&#8217; beloved Narnia series, though most adaptations to date have begun with The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe \u2014 the first Narnia story published, and by far the most famous. Indeed, The Magician&#8217;s Nephew has never been adapted for the screen until now.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Clearly, though, Netflix hopes that this fresh entry point into the franchise will be a successful start to its plans for the series, with an all-star cast and years of work to bring the story to life. Carey Mulligan, Daniel Craig, Emma Mackey, Ciar\u00e1n Hinds and Meryl Streep all feature in the film, with its young leads played by newcomers David McKenna and Beatrice Campbell.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Don&#8217;t expect Netflix to make theatrical releases the norm for its movies in future, however.
