The magical world of Narnia returns, and this time, it’s more enchanting and thrilling than ever. The first official trailer for The Chronicles of Narnia (2025) has just been released, and Timothée Chalamet and Florence Pugh lead the charge into a new era of this beloved fantasy franchise, bringing fresh life to the iconic story.
Directed by David Yates (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Fantastic Beasts), The Chronicles of Narnia (2025) is a bold reimagining of C.S. Lewis’ cherished books, set in the magical land of Narnia where animals talk, witches reign, and a battle for the fate of the world unfolds. Chalamet stars as Prince Caspian, a young man destined to lead Narnia through its darkest days, while Pugh plays Susan Pevensie, a fierce and intelligent queen who is called back to Narnia after many years to reunite with the land she once ruled.
The teaser opens with an ethereal shot of a golden lamp-post standing alone in the woods, as snow gently falls to the ground. Susan (Pugh) steps into the frame, looking both weary and resolute, as she whispers: “We thought we left it behind, but Narnia never truly leaves you.”
