‘What?!’ And she goes, ‘That was Caspian,’ I was like, ‘That’s Caspian?!’” And I went after him and I was like, ‘I’m sorry! I didn’t know you were Caspian!’ And he was like, ‘Oh, right.’”

Henley adds, however, that it wasn’t long before she felt the actor was a new extension to the tight-knit cast.

“It turned into a really good relationship and we really welcomed him into the Pevensie family,” Georgie says, “He wasn’t a Pevensie, which I think was quite nice for him, as well. I mean, we were the Pevensies and he was in our family, but I do think he was like another big brother.”

“There are so many now and he’s just lovely and just as much so as everybody else who works with him,” she adds, “He’s so easy to get along with and that’s what you need. Everybody, me, Anna [Popplewell], Skandar, and his highness William, it’s so easy to get on with, but I think that’s a great compliment to have if you are a Pevensie.”

One of the distinctive elements of The Chronicles Of Narnia book series is its very symbolic Christian messages. We asked Georgie what she felt was the kind of message Lucy conveys to the audience in Prince Caspian.

“I think my message is complicated, although, this is going to sound really corny, but my message, I think, is ‘Believe what your belief is, because don’t let anybody knock you down,” Henley believes, “Because when Lucy first sees Aslan, she knows he’s there. She can feel it in her bones and because her siblings don’t believe her, she backs down. She follows them, they go the wrong way and everything starts to fall down even more, even though they meet Caspian, and he’s very angry with her.”

“He doesn’t understand why she didn’t go to him because she believed it,” she continues, “Why did she believe the others? Why couldn’t her beliefs be stronger than their knockdown comments, if you know what I mean? And that’s a definite lesson that she learns and that’s a message she conveys. So I think a lot of people go through that in their lifetime definitely.”

Henley claims however that one thing she enjoyed in particular about the second film was her character getting to actually use her weapon.

“I was so happy,” she exclaims, “I spent the first film having this dagger and not really get to use it. And then it was like ‘Wow!’ I think one of my best moments in the film is everybody’s at the side of the bridge and everybody’s at the town and stuff and I’m on the other side. And I draw my dagger with confidence and then, this army comes charging at me (laughing).”

“And I remember filming that, and then, Damián Alcázar, who plays Lord Sopespian, was like, ‘Charge!’ and I was on my own,” Georgie continues, “And I was having these horses galloping at me and I was absolutely petrified. And [director] Andrew [Stanton] kept shouting at me, ‘Don’t show ...
