The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader Opens Friday, December 10th

The third film in the Chronicles of Narnia, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, opens in theaters this Friday, December 10th.

The film is based on the third book in the series of fantasy suspense novels by C. S. Lewis, originally published in 1952. (As several sources point out, it is now considered the fifth book in the series, when ordered by the overall series internal chronological timeline.)

The storyline follows Edmund and Lucy Pevensie (Skandar Keynes and Georgie Henley), along with their cousin Eustace (Will Poulter), who are swallowed into a painting and transported back to Narnia and the magnificent ship The Dawn Treader. They join King Caspian (Ben Barnes) and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep (voice of Simon Pegg) for a mission which holds the fate of Narnia itself. The courageous voyagers overcome their own greatest temptations, as they travel to mysterious islands; have fateful confrontations with magical creatures and sinister enemies; and reunite with their friend and protector, the "Great Lion".
