Fun facts behind the scenes of the Narnia movies
The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe:
in the scene where edmund cries, andrew adamson (the director) told skandar he couldn’t have any more coke so skandar would cry
it’s anna popplewell’s legs you see when edmund enters for the first time in narnia because skandar already left the set and they had to reshoot the scene
while edmund hated the coat peter gave him skandar actually loved it because it made him look like a gangsta
georgie wrote two stories during the filming
georgie was carried into the set blindfolded to make her first entrance in narnia so her reaction would be as genuine as possible
georgie set up a swear bucket
anna is afraid of mice so her scenes involving mice had to be shot with her double
william tricked skandar into eating some of the sugar glass from the broken picture of their father in the beginning of the movie only after trying did skander realize the fake glass was made of silicon
the kids made up a song called “check the gate”
georgie’s sister plays older lucy
anna had go home alone so tilda swinton changed her ticket plane to do the trip with her
georgie and skandar kept fighting to figure out who grew up the most
skandar hates hugs so the cast used to scream “group hug” and all
william looked so upset in the scene where he edmund is mortally wounded that skandar hugged him
the last week that cast kept asking anna (who did other movies before) if they were going to be sad on the last day and she kept saying everything was going to be fine……. she was the first one to broke into tears
anna’s favorite costume is the blue dress susan wore at the end of the movie and she didn’t like her school uniform
only susan was supposed to jump on the water when they arrive in narnia but it was so pretty they all did it
skandar hates his last line of the movie
on the call sheet the scene description was “edmund saves the day”
skandar hurt himself on set during a scene, you can see his inflated lips
they played the music of eyes of the tiger when peter and edmund arrives for the duel with miraz
skandar was a bit nervous about learning all of his lines during the confrontation with miraz…. until he realized everything was written on the big piece of paper
william accidently covered ben with orange juice at the very beggining of the shooting
anna’s last day of shooting was the scene where susan falls off a cliff
Voyage of the Dawn Treader:
skandar got carried away and hurt ben barnes during the sword fight scene
they kept secret the snowy set so georgie’s reaction would be genuine (just like they did in lww)
