'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe', originally published in 1950, is the first novel written in the seven-part 'The Chronicles of Narnia' series which has sold over 60 million copies.
Set in World War II England, C S Lewis' timeless adventure follows the exploits of the four Pevensie siblings - Lucy (Georgie Henley), Edmund (Skandar Keynes), Susan (Anna Popplewell) and Peter (William Moseley) - who enter the world of Narnia through a magical wardrobe while playing a game of hide-and-seek at the rural estate of a mysterious professor.
Once there, the children discover a charming, once peaceful land inhabited by talking beasts, dwarfs, fauns, centaurs and giants that has become a world cursed to eternal winter by the evil White Witch, Jadis (Tilda Swinton). Under the guidance of a noble and mystical ruler, the magnificent lion, Aslan, the children fight to overcome Jadis' powerful hold over Narnia in a spectacular, climactic battle that will free Narnia from her icy spell forever.
Starring Georgie Henley; Skandar Keynes; Anna Popplewell; William Moseley; Tilda Swinton; Jim Broadbent; Rupert Everett; Dawn French; and Ray Winstone.
