Is Weta Involved in VDT?

Is Weta Workshop involved in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader? We heard rumors of this back in November, and their latest newsletter seems to hint at it (though of course we don’t know anything for sure):

“Having done conceptual design, props, weapons, miniatures and all sorts of things for the first two Narnia movies, our involvement with the latest instalment of CS Lewis’s Narnia Chronicles wasn’t on the same scale, but we’re REALLY looking forward to the movie in December. Especially now that we’ve seen the trailer…”

Interesting! You can sign up for the newsletter here.

Other items of interest: some of Weta’s LWW statues are currently on sale, and if you buy any of the LWW and PC statues before June 29th you will automatically be entered in a prize drawing where you can win a replica of Lucy’s cape (created by Stansborough Fibres). Thanks Griffle for the heads-up!

    Lucy's cape is very nice! I got to have my photo taken wearing one in Stansborough's exhibit at a show here – (see Costume site if you want to see it & me).
