Part 6/12:
Director Greta Gerwig, fresh off her massive success with the first Barbie, reportedly worked with her husband Noah Baumbach on story ideas. While early stages suggest a sequel is being discussed, officials insist there’s no concrete plan yet. Nonetheless, Gerwig’s involvement has heightened interest, especially considering her reputation for modern, nuanced storytelling.
Interestingly, Gerwig is also developing a Chronicles of Narnia adaptation for Netflix, which is said to take a very new approach—focused on rock and roll, according to producer Amy Pascal. Such a descriptor raises eyebrows because it suggests a radical reinterpretation of a beloved Christian allegorical series, potentially diverging significantly from the source material.
