Although development for the fourth installment of the Chronicles Of Narnia film franchise is still early in the process, it appears Daniel Craig has an offer to join the cast.

With production set to start later this year, Netflix and director Greta Gerwig are trying to lure the famed 007 actor, although he has yet to sign-on.

At this point it's not known exactly what character the Chester, Cheshire, England native has been offered to play, according to Deadline.

The studio and Gerwig appear to be aiming high in regards to star power considering it had been previously reported that pop star Charli XCX was in talks for the role of the white witch.

The plan to develop new Narnia film projects and a series based on Lewis’ beloved fantasy novels The Chronicles Of Narnia began back in 2018.

Within two years, Netflix brought Gerwig, the Barbie co-writer and director, on board to adapt and helm the first movie. 

Details about the where the storytelling will focus in the upcoming Narnia film are scarce, but it has already been reported that the film will get an exclusive two-week Imax global run for Thanksgiving 2026, ahead of it dropping on Netflix.

The series revolves around the adventures of children in the world of Narnia , guided by Aslan, a wise and powerful lion that can speak and is the true king of Narnia.

Gerwig comes aboard in the wake of the first two films being directed by Andrew Adamson and the third film helmed by Michael Apted.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe (2005) was a huge smash with fans at the worldwide box office, grossing a whopping $745 million against a budget of $180 million.  

It featured a cast of William Moseley, Anna Popplewell, Skandar Keynes, Georgie Henley, Tilda Swinton, James McAvoy, Jim Broadbent, and Liam Neeson.

The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008) was another hit with moviegoers, earning $419.6 million while spending $225 million to make the film.  

Henley, Keynes, Moseley, Popplewell, Neeson, and Swinton reprised their roles for the second installment that also included newcomers Ben Barnes, Sergio Castellitto, Peter Dinklage, Eddie Izzard, Warwick Davis, Ken Stott, and Vincent Grass.

The third and most recent installment - The Chronicles Of Narnia: The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader (2010) saw Henley, Keynes, Barnes, and Swinton made their return, with Will Poulter joining the cast. 

It ended up raking in $415.6 million at the worldwide box office while working with budget of between $140-155 million.

While best known for his run as James Bond in Casino Royale (2006), Quantum Of Solace (2008), Skyfall (2012), Spectre (2015), and No Time To Die (2021), Craig has appeared in many acclaimed film roles during his career.

His resume includes the likes of Elizabeth (1998), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), Road To Perdition (2002), Layer Cake (2004), Munich (2005), The Golden Compass (2007), Defiance (2008), Cowboys & Aliens (2011), The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011), and Logan Lucky (2017).

More recently he starred in the periodic romantic drama Queer (2024) and is set to play the lead in Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, which is slated to premiere on Netflix sometime during the second half of 2025.
