Andor Star Denise Gough Joins Narnia Prequel Film

According to the article, the Disney+ series Andor has already cemented itself as one of the most critically-acclaimed Star Wars projects, and one of the standout characters was ISB supervisor Deedra Meero, played by actress Denise Gough. Now, Gough has revealed that she has signed on to star in the upcoming Narnia prequel film, Narnia: The Magician's Nephew, directed by Greta Gerwig.

Rather than rebooting the Narnia film series with another adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Gerwig is instead focusing on the chronologically first installment, The Magician's Nephew. Gough, who impressed viewers with her portrayal of the intimidating Deedra Meero in Andor, has been cast in a "mean" role in the Narnia prequel. While the specific details of her character are not yet known, fans are eager to see how Gough will bring the same intensity to the world of Narnia.

Narnia: The Magician's Nephew is set to release in theaters in the United States and Canada on November 26, 2026, and will then become available on Netflix on December 25 of the same year. The film's cast also includes Carey Mulligan, Meryl Streep, Daniel Craig, and other notable actors. With Denise Gough's involvement, audiences can expect the Narnia prequel to deliver a captivating and potentially dark twist on the beloved fantasy series.
