''The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian'' is a ''. The film is expected to be released on December 14 , 2007 , but will possibly be pushed back to 2008. It is yet to be rated. PLOT Prince Caspian uses Susan 's magic horn to call the four Pevensies to Narnia. The Pevensies find themselves back in the land of Narnia one year after their first adventure, but in Narnia, a thousand years has passed since they left. The children are once again enlisted to join the colourful creatures of Narnia in combating King Miraz , an evil villain who prevents the rightful prince from ruling the land. CAST Confirmed Expected New Cast PRODUCTION STATUS Pre-production began on February 4 , 2006 with filming set to begin in Fall 2006 , possibly on location somewhere in Ireland , which is Belfast -born C. S. Lewis's native country, or New Zealand , where the first Narnia film was shot. It has been reported that the visual effects team behind ''The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe'' has taken a good look at ''Prince Caspian'' and have commented on how it will have to have bigger and better effects. There's also the possibility of a slightly larger Aslan and more creatures and battle sequences than the first film {Link without Title} . Dean Wright, the Oscar-nominated visual-effects supervisor for ''The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe'', told SCI FI Wire that he and his colleagues are already looking ahead to the sequel, ''Prince Caspian''. Wright also confirmed that the sequel will bring back the main animal character, Aslan (voiced in the first film by Liam Neeson ), as well as a host of familiar and new creatures - "There's new hero creatures, specifically Badger and his mouse, Reepicheep. Again, there's huge battle sequences. I know from talking to Andrew just briefly before he left: He wants to make this bigger and better than the first Narnia film". Director Andrew Adamson hasn't written the sequel's script yet, but Wright said the effects team will begin computer "pre-visualization" of scenes from ''Prince Caspian'' "probably in a couple of months, and then full on into preproduction. You know, the film is going to kick off before you know it, and we'll be going like gangbusters, probably, I would say, within the next two to four months". "One of the challenges that it's described in the text that he does increase in size. At one point, he's finally referenced as being the size of an elephant. That's where interpretations of the filmmakers are going to come into play, how to pull it off... we also successfully avoided Aslan getting doused in water in the first film. But as soon as we get into The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and that sort of stuff, it's going to be harder to avoid" says Wright. (Source: SciFiWire.com.) Harry Gregson-Williams is returning to score Prince Caspian. SEQUENCE/ORDER? Some fans of the book series are confused as to the order of the films's production. Many people ask why '' The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe '', to them the second book, was filmed first, followed by ''Prince Caspian'', to them the fourth. The reason is that the films are being made in the original publishing order, which follows the growth of the children from Earth for the first four books. See The Chronicles Of Narnia for further explanation of the varying ordering of the series. SEE ALSO
