Location Filming Continues on ‘Narnia’, Scene Shot Along River Thames (Video)

After drawing crowds during a very public location shoot on August 10, director Greta Gerwig has kept her upcoming ‘Narnia’ film mostly undercover as production continues in London.

We’ve confirmed that some filming took place along the shore of the River Thames at low tide, between the Albert and Battersea Bridges at Battersea Park last week.

By all accounts, the character actors involved in the scene were Beatrice Campbell and David McKenna (or possibly their body doubles), along with a number of extras. Local residents were notified in advance by Netflix that filming would take place near them, with the letter noting that the story was set in the 1950s.

Filming is set to continue at Manchester’s historic Victoria Baths, where casting notices have called for around 40 boys aged 11–14.
