According to Comic Book News, The Magician’s Gay Black Nephew has been canceled and Netflix is in turmoil:
Netflix is getting rocked behind the scenes, and our source says Narnia is part of the problem.
Film chief Dan Lin was fired over the weekend.
Chief content officer Bela Bajaria was already out.
Now a Paramount source tells CBN:
“Development frozen right now.”
Scripts and pitches are reportedly sitting in limbo, with people unable to even get calls or emails answered.
Then the source went right at Greta Gerwig’s Narnia:
“Narnia is a mega woke slop insanity.”
“Think Amazon Rings of Power but worse.”
The $280M movie was already said to be in trouble internally, with insiders calling it “awful” and “a genuine problem.”
Reshoots followed a summer test screening.
The first trailer then got hammered with dislikes.
Now Dan Lin is gone with the movie just months from release.
Our source also says this is bigger than Netflix.
“More firings are coming. And not just Netflix.”
Disney, Hulu, Amazon Prime and others are all said to be making moves.
The source’s blunt summary:
“Glut = Slop.”
And with Paramount and Warner Bros. now combined under Skydance, the pressure is only going up.
Netflix has already lost two of its top content executives in a matter of days.
This is glorious. AI is killing Hollywood hard.
