Despite creating many beloved original series, Netflix still hasn’t found a movie franchise with staying power. The Knives Out series has enjoyed success, but Netflix only picked up distribution after the first one was a hit. Netflix is now betting big on a huge fantasy adaptation that seems strong on paper. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia series. Gerwig is currently slated to write and direct the first two Netflix Narnia movies, and they’ll receive an exclusive IMAX release window.
