Barbie director Greta Gerwig is reportedly fighting to get theatrical releases for her Netflix remake of The Chronicles of Narnia. The upcoming film will be the latest adaptation of C.S. Lewis’ fantasy series, which largely follows the Pevensie siblings as they discover a magical world inside an old professor’s closet. Entertainment journalist Matthew Belloni has previously reported that Gerwig, who is known for her success on the big screen, was “bummed” that her Narnia project would not receive a theatrical release. Netflix typically only grants limited theatrical runs for movies, and even then, most of their originals never hit the big screen.
