C.S. Lewis

Biography

Clive Staples Lewis (known to friends as "Jack") was a British writer and lay theologian who remains one of the most influential intellectual figures of the 20th century. While he died in 1963, his work is experiencing a massive pop-culture renaissance in 2026. In 2026, his fantasy masterpiece returns to the screen with unprecedented scale. "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician's Nephew" arrives in theaters (IMAX) on November 26, 2026, before its global Netflix launch on Christmas Day. Directed by Greta Gerwig, this adaptation of Lewis's "creation story" prequel stars Daniel Craig as the eccentric Uncle Andrew and Emma Mackey as the White Witch (Jadis). The film is credited with re-igniting global interest in Lewis's "Deep Magic," with book sales for The Magician's Nephew reportedly spiking 400% in the months leading up to release. Beyond Narnia, his life story continues to captivate audiences. The biopic film series led by Max McLean, which began with The Most Reluctant Convert, continued its expansion in limited releases throughout 2025/2026, further cementing Lewis's dual legacy as both a master of fantasy and a giant of Christian apologetics.
