Voyage of the Dawn Treader 3Prince Caspian did not have the success of its predecessor, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, but it was a solid fantasy film and it looks as if the third film will build on their foundations.

Comingsoon.net have noted the release of the first production stills via the film’s Facebook pages and they are striking in their design and point to a colourful journey ahead with the Dawn Treader. We see Ben Barnes as Caspian and Skandar Keynes as Edmund Pevensie and Georgie Henley as Lucy as well as the titular Dawn Treader itself.

C.S. Lewis’s Narnia books are beloved by many people and I’m hoping we’ll see director Michael Apted continue to remain faithful to the source material and resist the temptation (and pressure from Fox perhaps) to make Narnia a Lord of the Rings lite/Potter franchise machine.
