Huge Dawn Treader Banner at Cannes
Collider.com has posted a HUGE picture of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader banner at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. (Click here for the full sized image.)
The banner features Caspian, Reepicheep, and Aslan on the left side, and Edmund, Lucy, and Eustace on the right. Unfortunately Eustace is pretty hard to make out, but the rest of the banner makes up for it. Hopefully we’ll get some more pictures of it later today that will have a better angle.
Thanks to Johnny T, matt, and Jacquelyn for the heads-up!
UPDATE: Overnight, we received spy reports from Johnny T, CaspianX, and AJAiken with a link to additional pictures of the banner. EmpireOnline.com has posted pictures of the side panels and the ship has indeed made it on to the banner! You can view the story here.
Thanks for the heads-up!
UPDATE 2: More Dawn Treader marquee pics from RopeofSilicon can be seen here.
I think Lucy looks that way to draw crouds in…trying to make it look bigger, darker and more'epic'
Lucy and Eustace look pretty good, but to be completley honest, I don't think its a very flattering photo of either Caspian or Edmund. Edmund's squinting like the Duke of Galma's daughter, and Caspian sort of has this blank "What'd I do now?" expression on his face (plus also he looks funny with a beard). Still, it looks great all the same (if that makes any sense LOL) and I can't wait to see a real poster and TRAILER!
I know, seriously, what's up with that?!?! If you read my earlier post, you know my "theory" about that. 🙂
I'm still getting used to the fact that Edmund has Rhindon, period. All this time I thought Caspian was going to have it. *scratches head and looks befuddled*
I'm not sure yet, but I think I like it better that Ed has it. I have to think about it.
Lucy does look intense. Which reminds me, I can't wait to see what's going on with the soldiers in armor and the damaged ship and all.
*comment, not post
AAAAGH
OMG
How exciting!!!
Edmund. Looks. So. Hot! 😀
AHHH! I so can't wait! Hmmm, could anyone tell me who it is on the left side? It says "Caspian, Reepicheep, and Aslan on the left side" But…that ain't Ben Barnes! I'm confused. They didn't get another actor for Caspian X?!?!?!?!
Wow! That looks SOOO AWESOME!!! Oh yeah and NarniaPrincess that is Ben Barnes he just looks really different in a beard. Edmund looks great! He looks cool with Rhindon! Oh man I cannot wait until at least a trailer comes out! *tries not to scream* 😀 Long live Aslan and Sail on VDT!!!!
I wish they would have aged Caspian more. I know the book says that only a few years had passed since the Pevenises visited Narnia but I think it would make it more dramatic if Caspian was in his thirties (and more muscular with a thin beard).
Either way, everything looks great! And Lucy looks gorgeous!
well he is about to turn 30 in august!
Looks awesome but why dos Edmund have Rhindon? and why is he holding is by the blade?
Loving Caspian's beard even more! I think what's bothering me about Lucy is how eerie her eyes look in that banner; I can't see her pupils.
I'm hoping he's aged more in the film too, not 3 years but maybe 6 years or even 8 years.
I like the idea that Edmund has Rhindon. If Edmund's there, obviously Caspian would defer (rightly) and let Edmund use it. Considering how long the Brothers Pevensie lived and fought together, Edmund is probably already very familiar with Rhindon. Edmund totally outranks Caspian in any case.
XXDD Maybe William Turner? It's very funny)))
Does this mean they're going to screen footage at the festival? 😀
Wow, he does look very different! Thanks for answering me question.
haha!! 🙂 yeah, but i hate the fact that ppl r saying that this is something like potc!
Awesome, How cool is that!! I do agree that seeing The Dawn Treader would have made it even sweeter..
MAYBE Why he is holding it by the blade is He Fell and the he quickly got the sword to save him from falling! just kidding!!! But who knows!!! 🙂
While I'm personally not a fan of Edmund having Rhindon (It's Peter's sword, not his! Also, why did Caspian even bring it along with him? To prove he's the king of Narnia?), the fact that he has it makes sense to a practical degree. He's older/taller, and Rhindon is longer than whatever sword he used in LWW (I'm not sure if it's the same sword from PC), so it would make sense that he would use Rhindon now that he's older? But it still kind of irks me that he has it.
Also, re: huge elbow, that sleeve is very misleading! Telmarine clothes and its puffyness *shakes head*
actually that IS Ben-with a beard. I know, yikes, right?
I got so wicked excited when I saw this!!! It looks great. I love the looks of everyone, especially Caspian (his beard looks right in this pic, so yay! 😛 ) and Ed looks so cool. Lucy looks so much older though, I don't know if it is just her look in the pic or what. I think she looks too old and intense, but oh well. I juts caught that Ed is holding Rhindon. Interesting. Wonder how he gets it. And I have no problem with Caspian bringing it along with him. Peter gave it to him at the end of PC – why shouldn't he have it? I can't wait for December!!!!
Actually, I think Caspian would have brought Peter's sword with him for the same reason he brought Lucy's diamond flask with him, because it's a treasure and he can't leave it unguarded…might I add, not to be rude, DUH!
SWEET!!!! They got way better pics!!!!! WOW Lucy has turned into a nice young lady! Edmund looks GREAT.
What's the matter with you guys? Of course they all look older! I like it. Because when Narnia was Disney, they made it look to kidish like, ESPECIALLY Prince Caspian. LWW wasn't all that bad. Now that it's FOX, it will probably be alot better. But, seriously, I'm glad they look so serious. It makes the whole thing look great. Let's just all hope that the movie really IS.
WHAT!?!?!???!? I Don't remember her saying that in the commentary!?!?!?!
I totally agree. 🙂
I know.. about time Edmund was portrayed as a super cool guy in a Narnia poster 😛
This is getting more and more awesome!
I really like that Edmund has Rhindon too.
And a too wish Caspian would get rid of that beard also. . .but hey, we can get used to it. Besides, I think it's supposed to show that he's older now and a King and not a Prince any more. 🙂
Why is everybody saying that Edmund is holding Rhindon. I understand that he's holding a sword, but that sword looks nothing like Rhindon did. This sword does not have the handle thing (sorry, I do not know the proper termanology).
AWESOME!!!! getting REALLY anxious to see the movie!!! bring on the commercials!!!
Um, the reason Caspian has it would most likely be because it is a Narnian King's Sword, to be passed from one king to the next… Peter gave it to Caspian as a gift…
Lucy looks so grown up!! She really is a valiant queen
Oh my Gosh!!!! Lucy looks so grown up. Every time a movie comes out I think I won't be surprised at how much they all have grown up but I freak out every time. Caspian looks really good,(much better than in those production pics)I actually like the beard now.
I think it's neat that Edmund has Rhindon – it helps to connect all 3 movies. I wonder how they would manage to keep it in ToS – I guess if Caspian passed it down to his descendants or something. Anywho, it's looking awesome!
Okay, now we have a different angle on Ben, he looks less sneezy. Now he looks heroic.
I don't think it was plastic surgery. I think they pulled the skin on her face back to make her look younger at the beginning of PC becuase she'd grown so much.
Omigosh!!!!!!!!!!!! Is that lucy? wow Georgie Really has grown up.
Caspian, Reepicheep and Edmund look pretty much the same(expect for caspians beard) but lucy look grown up. I can't wait now.
Oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!! I can not wait! everyone looks wonderful! GGGGGOOOO SKANDAR!
This is great! I think Lucy looks like she's pondering something – or she's kinda scared. Maybe she's looking at the Sea Serpent. And I am very pleased with Eustace! He looks exactly like I always imagined him – he could certainly be a jerk and yet he looks like a nice guy. Perfect!! Everyone's looking good!!!
This is sooooo exciting!!!!
CAN'T WAIT
That looks /nothing/ like the Ben Barnes I've seen pictures (and a movie) of! Even when I've seen clips of interviews and pictures with the beard, he looks /so/ different on the banner!
That is /so/ not Rhindon! It's his centaur sword (yes, that's the kind of sword he's always used and that is its name!).
But I /did/ see a picture of Caspian with Rhindon (if you go on thelionscall.com in the caption contest section and scroll down the list, you'll find it). And while he may wield it well and "look after it", I personally don't think he should use the high king's sword. By rights, I think only Peter should be swinging that lovely blade around (I know he handed it to Caspian at the end of PC, but I don't think it was a gesture of "here, go ahead and use it all you want").
I won't repeat what I said in reply to an earlier comment, so if you want to read it, go ahead and look for a comment reply from "Ariel_of_Narnia" nearer to the top of the comments.
Yeah, really! I'd sooner hear "Caspian looks like another Aragorn" (which I don't want to hear because Narnia is way cooler than LotR (in my opinion; lots of other people I know disagree with me)) than "Caspian looks like Will". And I've never seen Pirates!
Love how you pulled the Duke of Galma's daughter into it…. lol
Personally, the beard isn't half as bad as the ponytail….
That's not Rhindon! That's a centaur-sword. (Yes, it's what Ed uses in every movie.)
Eww. I think that'd be a little… too much. 8 years? I dunno. Maybe just my opinion.
That's not Rhindon.
Sure is… 🙂 he's always been a super cool guy…but now the poster really shows it!!!
I know this is, like, my fifth time saying it, but that's not Rhindon that Ed's holding. He has a centaur sword.
And as to Ed "outranking" Caspian, I do recall a video on YouTube that seems to imply a friendly duel between the two and by the looks of it, Ed wins. (Yeah, Ed!) ; D
Look for a reply to a comment under my name near the top. Until then, I shall say this again: Ed does /not/ have Rhindon!
That's not Rhindon. It's a centaur-sword.
Ed does /not/ have Rhindon!! It's a centaur sword.
I realize that I've said the same thing over and over and over again already on this page and that for anyone reading all comments after me will become greatly annoyed, but Ed's sword does /not/ have a lion at the top so therefore it's not Rhindon! It is a centaur-sword!
Now I'll be quiet and hope no one else thinks that it's Peter's sword….
I think it's more ew to imagine Caspian ages fast. If he's 16-18 in PC and is only 19-21 in VDT he sure doesn't look it |D Ben in VDT has always struck me as 25 or older.
I beg to differ. I took another look and that is a side view of a lion's head on the golden pommel. Plus the gold ring around the handle is in just the right place.
But the pommel is a lion's head, the hilt is wrapped with a swirl-designed leather, the center has a small tongue, and the length of the blade has some kind of markings on it (Rhindon's etching). The sword Edmund uses in LWW and PC is extremely different from this one.
You make me laugh, Ariel. I'm beginning to wonder if you have some sort of personal attachment to Edmund NOT having Rhindon. 😉
But I am pretty sure it is Rhindon. No centaur swords thus far have had golden pommels, and especially not Aslan's head on the pommel. Plus, the gold bands around the hilt are unique (as far as I have seen) to Rhindon. The centaur's swords are similar to the design of Edmund's in LWW, but a far cry from Rhindon.
