Disney signs on to partner on The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe!!!

Hey folks, Harry here with the latest on THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE! We know that for a long time the director of SHREK, Andrew Adamson, was directing, that WETA was handling visual fx and practical fx work on the film and that it was going to cost some where well north of a $100 million dollars. Well, it seems that Disney has officially signed on to co-finance and distribute. Since the managed to pick up the ancillary rights, you can probably expect at some future date to see a NARNIA wing of the "Magic Kingdom"! At the very least, I think we'll have big stuffed lions with crowns that say over 150 phrases and interacts with your child. This is a pretty smart move by Disney that is preparing for a Post-Pixar world, and if this film is done right, it has an immense audience waiting to embrace it. AND - with the rest of the books to adapt, they can see this as a long running series to put many dollars in the mouse's earmuffs!
