There is apparently a Narnia movie forthcoming on Netflix, produced by Greta Gerwig,
which will star the actress Meryl Streep in the role of Aslan.
Obviously female.
A modest rewriting of the Wikipedia article on
The Last Battle gives us this:
In the western regions of Narnia, the clever and greedy ape Gerwig persuades the naive donkey Streep to wear a lion's skin, and introduces her to the other Narnians as the Great Lion Aslan.
To celebrate this inspired casting, a mini Twitter poll will be held to decide on the people's favourite of the seven Narnia books.
Actually, a much more controversial poll would be to decide on the proper order in which to read C.S. Lewis's
work. Do we put The Magician's Nephew first? Or last? Or penultimate? I'm not getting into that dispute.
RESULTS AS THEY COME IN.
SEMI-FINALS
FINAL
Produced by Greta Gerwig who has obviously never read the books nor learned what they are about.
