The cast of Narnia has fans feeling nostalgic as actors William Moseley, Anna Popplewell, Skandar Keynes, and Georgie Henley came together to celebrate the anniversary by recreating an old photo
Fans were left feeling nostalgic as the cast of Narnia came together to celebrate the 20th anniversary of film by recreating an iconic photo along with the movie’s director.
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe premiered on December 7 2005, and was the start of the trilogy of films that took fans by storm. It stars William Moseley, Anna Popplewell, Skandar Keynes, and Georgie Henley as the siblings Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy as they find a hidden passage through a wardrobe that leads them to the world of Narnia, where they ally with the lion Aslan (voiced by Liam Neeson) against the forces of Jadis, the White Witch, portrayed by Tilda Swinton.
The film was a huge success grossing $745 million worldwide against a $180 million budget and becoming the third-highest-grossing film of 2005. It was then followed by two more films in the franchise, Prince Caspian and The Voyage of Dawn Treader.
For the 20th anniversary of the film, which was released in 2005, the four actors met up with director Andrew Adamson to celebrate together, and even recreate a 20 year old photo.
Taking to her Instagram page, Georgie shared a photo which appears to have been taken around the time where the first movie was filmed. It sees the four child actors sitting on a bench together.
William, Skandar, and Anna were seen hugging, with Skandar making a face, while Georgie sat next to them, also making a face. Next to her, sat director Andrew as they all posed for the camera.
She then posted the recreated version of the photo, where the actors, now all in their 30s, were trying their best to recreate the same poses along with Andrew sitting next to Georgie.
She then went on to share two more photos of the group enjoying a meal together in a restaurant, with one photo being more serious before they all burst out laughing.
Georgie wrote in the caption of the post: “20 years!!!!!! we had to recreate this photo in August when Andrew was in London. I don’t really have the words except thank you Andrew for creating real life magic and letting us be a part of it, and thank you everyone who loves the film as much as we loved making it.”
She then added: “I’ll post some more pictures soon of our Narnia family, how beyond lucky we are!!”
Fans quickly took to the comment to express their love for the film and its creators, as many couldn’t believe it had been 20 years since the first film was first released.
“How was that already 20 years ago?? I remember seeing it in theatres as a kid and being absolutely blown away. The music is also amazing!! Thank y’all so, so much for all the magic you brought us – still one of my favourite movies as an adult!!” one person wrote.
“Also 20 years!! Ah I feel old,” a second fan wrote, as someone else commented: “I just re watched all 3! Best cast, best movies! Love that you all got together!!!”
