The cast of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian were on the Rachael Ray show yesterday and Rach was pretty excited. She said that she was an avid reader as a child but that the Narnia books were the first to keep her up at night reading with a flashlight under the covers. I loved the books myself but I wasn’t thrilled by the first Narnia film so I’m probably not going to see it in the theater.
Ben Barnes, who portrays Prince Caspian, said that he was really welcomed by the cast and didn’t have to worry about being the “new guy.” The trio (Ben and co-stars Anna Popplewell and William Moseley) were chatty and animated but the audience wasn’t very receptive, unfortunately. They joked around and tried to engage them but it was uncomfortably quiet at times.
