Lewis' allegorical adventure and an IMAX-sized spectacle made for Netflix but designed for the big screen. The film, led by Gerwig's first draft written in 2020 and 2021 after approaching Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos, will have a wide theatrical release beginning February 12 and be available on Netflix on April 2. With a $280 million budget, \"Narnia: The Magician's Nephew\" is one of Netflix's most ambitious films, starting with the prequel \"The Magician's Nephew\" instead of the usual first book.",
