“I’m a little bit terrified because I really have a lot of reverence for Narnia. I loved Narnia so much as a child. As an adult, C.S. Lewis is a thinker and a writer. I’m intimidated to do this. It feels intimidating,” Gerwig said in an interview. “As a non-British person, I have a particular sense of wanting to do this properly… It’s like when Americans do Shakespeare, there’s a slight sense of reverence and like maybe we should treat him with extra care. He’s not our countryman.”
