VDT's release date delayed to 2010

According to BoxOfficeMojo.com, the release date for The Voyage of the Dawn Treader has just been pushed back to May 7, 2010. Whether this is the result of the impending strike next year or not, we don't know yet (read more about the strike here). Also, this date has not yet been confirmed by Disney or Walden. As soon as we get more official news on this development, we will let you know.

UPDATE: ComingSoon.net is also reporting that the Dawn Treader release date has been changed to May 7, 2010.

UPDATE 2: We have received a confirmation e-mail from Disney.

UPDATE 3: Disney has sent us their official statement: In consideration of the challenging schedules for our young actors, Walt Disney Pictures and Walden Media have chosen to delay the start of production for "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" until summer 2008. The new release date for this highly anticipated third entry in the "Narnia" series will now be May 7, 2010.

Locations for "VDT" Named

In a new blog entry, KNB EFX guru Howard Berger mentions that work on Prince Caspian is now complete and he will be taking a short break before beginning work on The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Filming on Dawn Treader will begin in late January. First up in the locations this time will be the island nation of Malta, as expected, followed by Prague and Iceland. Previous reports suggested that filming in Antarctica might be on the cards, but it now seems that Iceland will be used instead.
