The Chronicles of Narnia has an impressive cast of renowned actors and promising up-and-comers, but the cast could have had much bigger stars.
Disney's Chronicles of Narnia franchise has some big names attached to it, but the series could have been full of bankable actors and A-list stars had history unfolded differently. The Chronicles of Narnia series is based on C.S. Lewis' fantasy novels of the same name. While the series is composed of seven books, only three of them were adapted by Disney: 2005's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe; 2008's Prince Caspian; and 2010's The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
The actor recalled why he didn't get past the audition process, noting that he "wasn't handsome enough" . Given that Garfield is considered one of the best-looking actors working today, the reason for his Narnia rejection is shocking. If Garfield had been cast in the movie, it might have performed better, especially given his abilities. Instead, Prince Caspian made $300 million less than its predecessor.
The Disney-backed Prince Caspian would have taken Hoult to the next stage of his career — international fame — but he didn't get past the audition process . While Hoult didn't receive the sort of feedback Garfield heard, he thinks it was the worst audition he ever had as he was asked to do an accent based on the Puss in Boots character. "It was horrendous," Hoult admitted. "It sounded more like Borat.
Previously, Pfeiffer had played similarly enigmatic and seductive roles, like Selena Kyle/Catwoman in Batman Returns and Louanne in Dangerous Minds, so there's no question that she would've been great as Jadis. Although Pfeiffer was offered the role, she turned it down due to family obligations . Almost 20 years after the release of Disney'sThe Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Pfeiffer could still be great as Jadis in the cast of Netflix's Narnia reboot.
