Lewis's original novels, but it could be an opportunity to honor these two beloved characters by asking, in C.S. Though Peter and Susan are clearly told in both the books and films that they will not return to Narnia after their second adventure, the films have left the door open just far enough to conceivably bring Peter and Susan back for either a fourth Chronicles of Narnia film or a continuation in the form of a Netflix Narnia series. Peter and Susan may even desire to go back to the series' titular land, but the path that the Chronicles Of Narnia characters should follow is one where they take what they’ve learned from their adventures and use it for the bettering of the world where they now belong. Peter is then told that he is in the true Narnia and that the Narnia he knew as a child was “only a shadow or copy.” The movie adaptation-inspiring books never fully explain why Susan is exempted from returning to Narnia and Peter is not, even though he had also presumably become occupied with the 'real world' for much of the series.Īslan comforts the concerned Edmund and Lucy in The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader movie by saying that Peter and Susan won’t return to Narnia - not because they have done anything wrong, but because they “have learned what they can from this world,” and that “it’s time for them to live in their own.” This offers a more optimistic interpretation of Peter and Susan’s absence in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Peter finally does go back to Narnia at the end of The Last Battle and, upon arriving, asks how it was possible after being told he would never return. As one who has lost her belief in Narnia, Susan is the only one of her siblings who never truly return.

In the Prince Caspian novel, Peter and Susan are told they will not return to Narnia simply because they are 'getting too old.' Later, in the final book of the Chronicles Of Narnia series, The Last Battle, Susan is said to be “no longer a friend of Narnia” and “interested in nothing nowadays except nylons and lipstick and invitations.” She speaks of Narnia as a place of make-believe that she and her siblings conjured during playtime as children.
