Those "Narnia" fans who’ve started to get a little antsy for their sequel fix can take a deep breath and relax. Looks like "Prince Caspian" will be getting underway in January, while Chapter 3, "Voyage of the Dawn Treader," will start production in January of 2008.

From The Hollywood Reporter’s Risky Biz Blog: "The second installment, "Prince Caspian," will likely shoot in the forests of Europe this coming January, says producer Mark Johnson. Set for release in summer 2008, the four stars of the movie will be 2 1/2 years older, but luckily, after "Prince Caspian" the two older siblings, Peter and Susan, disappear. (Just as well, I prefer Edmund and Lucy anyway.) Andrew Adamson is returning as writer-director for the second Narnia installment. A year after that he and Johnson will reteam to produce "Voyage of the Dawn Treader," my favorite Narnia book, which includes a boy who turns into a dragon."
