Wait
What
Everything I hear about this project keeps getting weirder and makes me not want it at all

well it was already a given that netflix was going to butcher this

Why?
Is Aslan going to be female or will they just deepen Streep’s voice?
If they are ultimately changing the tone of her voice, why pick her?
So many questions.
As an aside, Narnia should be considered a dead property.
Kids give zero shits about that series.

I will not be watching. CS Lewis would be appalled.

The Aslan in the first movie was a great depiction
I don't have the same faith in this one

Legit the most overrated actress of all time.

Gerwig has claimed she has "deep reverence" for the source material but there have been rumors and leaks that all of the religious stuff, philosophy, Lewis's worldview are essentially going to be excised

Weinstein enabler.
Hard pass.

gender AND species swapping is just a bridge too far for me. i'm out.

Is it going to be “Meryl Streep voice” coming out of a male lion or are they going to alter it post-production to be a male version of “Meryl Streep voice”, which begs the question, why pick her?
This is on par with choosing Cate Blanchett for the Borderlands movie.
Are they just trying to get a big name actress tied to the project?

Greta is most likely going to regret requesting that theatrical release. What a shame to crash that Barbie momentum into making this movie for a Russo bros paycheck.

White Witch to be played by Mark Ruffalo

I’ll update OP to voice. I don’t see anything about Aslan not being a lion.

But not reverent enough to refrain from vomiting rainbow bile all over the books' central themes.

What's Liam Neeson up to? I think he'd make a pretty good voice of Aslan. They should call him.

Pretty bold of you to assume the Lion's gender like that

Posted on 3/31/25 at 11:49 am to Esquire
I thought Aslan was a boy lion... is Aslan going to be a lioness?

Her deep reverence is to making sure that all artistic properties are twisted to fit her political narrative.

Straight blasphemy.
Don't touch Narnia. Just don't.
The religious overtones are too obvious to do anything that would downplay that.
