'Narnia' franchise ending after third film?
Published Tuesday, Apr 22 2008, 20:32 BST | By Simon Reynolds
Based on a series of seven novels by C. S. Lewis, the first film adaptation, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, was released in 2005. Its follow-up, Prince Caspian, is scheduled for release this summer, with Dawn Treader expected in 2010.
First Showing reports that producer Mark Johnson told an audience at the New York Comic Con that there are "no plans" to adapt the remaining four novels following Dawn Treader.
Disney and Pixar are reportedly planning to replace the Narnia franchise with a trilogy of films based on the John Carter of Mars books by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
