Filming on Greta Gerwig\u2019s \u2018The Magician\u2019s Nephew\u2019 adaptation finally got underway in London this morning, with scenes being shot on public roads in the City of London near Cornhill and the Royal Exchange.<\/p>\n

The set appears to depict a 1950\u2019s street scene in a post-war reconstruction-era Britain, the highlight of which is a giant billboard for a new housing development, featuring a magnificent golden-maned Lion.<\/p>\n

This confirms our reporting from yesterday<\/a> that multiple scenes within the movie will be set in the 1950s, rather than entirely in 1900 as per the book. Note however that it is still unconfirmed whether this represents a time shift for the entire story, or simply the addition of a framing device corresponding to year in which The Magician\u2019s Nephew was published (1955).<\/p>\n

The rest of the street scene features various items of street furniture appropriate to the 1950s, as well as Taxis, Cars and Buses of that era.<\/p>\n

The following photos were all taken by the Worldwide Guide to Movie Locations<\/a>. See if you can spot the Greta Gerwig Easter Egg hidden in the set details!<\/p>\n
