Trailer and Release Details
The new trailer introduces us to young Digory Kirke (David McKenna), whose uncle (Daniel Craig) turns out to be the titular magician. His newest trick: Creating the world that will soon be known as Narnia. The dazzling visual effects are accompanied by Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven,” which very rarely gets this kind of licensing for movie soundtracks — making this trailer all the more special.
