One of the Pevensie kids just survived a nasty scare. While visiting Beirut with his mom, "Chronicles of Narnia" actor Skandar Keynes narrowly avoided a bombing raid. The good news is that the kid (and his mom) made it home safely.
From IGN FilmForce: "Skandar Keynes, who plays Edmund in the movies, had a similar real-life scare this month — he and his mother were visiting Beirut, Lebanon when that city also came under deadly attack by bombers and fighter jets. Fortunately, the two made it out of the country safely a few days ago. The news was relayed by Mark Johnson, producer of the "Narnia" films, at Comic Con last week. InfuzeMag.com has a report on Disney’s Narnia session at the popular convention.
And getting back to Narnia, there is more positive news to report. New footage for the director’s cut of "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe" was shown at the convention — apparently, 14 minutes in total will be added to the film, including many shots requiring all-new CG work."

Not to sound insensitive, but Beirut is a spot one probably shouldn’t be visiting right now…
