Principal photography on Greta Gerwig’s adaptation of The Magician’s Nephew has officially concluded in London, following a 6-month shoot which started back in August.
Filming had initially been scheduled to start in July and conclude by December, however a short delay at the start of production ended up pushing the schedule back by a month.
Overall, the shoot has spanned three concurrent studio locations — Shepperton, Longcross, and Cardington — and taken in a variety of different real-world filming locations across the cities of London, Manchester and Bradford.
The film now moves into its post-production phase, where the likes of Framestore and Weta are already hard at work on the visual effects, and with Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt collaborating together on the score. Other post-production activities are anticipated to take place at Netflix’s facilities in New York, including editing and sound mixing. Whilst the editor for the movie has not yet been confirmed, Greta Gerwig has previously worked with Nick Houy on all three of her previous films.
Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew will debut with a two-week IMAX run worldwide beginning November 26, before arriving on Netflix on Christmas Day.
