In this exclusive new interview with MSN Movies, Ben talks a little about his upcoming film, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of The Dawn Treader.
With the trailer for The Voyage Of The Dawn Treader debuting this week the buzz has really started, it promises to be a big Christmas release….
Yeah, I hope it is. Personally I’m quite excited that it’s going to be 3D. It’s my favourite of the seven books, I think it’s one of the best stories and it’s got some good human characters as well – I think Eustace, who Will Poulter plays brilliantly, is a really funny character. It’s got a lot of the fun magical stuff of the first ones and I’ve got some fun action stuff which is cool. It’s going to be good I think.
I’ve added some recent magazine scans from the UK, Australia and Spain. Many thanks to Nicky, Jacqui and Lorna for sending these to the site. Enjoy!

According to this article, published by the U.K. Daily Mail, Ben will return to the stage this fall to star in the stage version of Sebastian Faulks’ Birdsong.
British film star Ben Barnes will return to the stage to star as Stephen Wraysford in the world premiere stage version of Sebastian Faulks’ Birdsong, according to today’s Daily Mail. The adaptation of the best-selling 1993 novel, directed by Trevor Nunn, will have a limited season from 29 September 2010 at the West End’s Comedy Theatre.
Part of Faulks’ trilogy which also comprises The Girl at the Lion d’Or and Charlotte Gray, Birdsong centres on Stephen Wraysford (Barnes) who, while staying as the guest of a factory owner in pre-war France, embarks on a passionate affair with Isabelle, the wife of his host. The affair changes them both forever.
A few years later Stephen finds himself back in the same part of France, but this time as a soldier at the Battle of the Somme, the bloodiest encounter in British military history. As his men die around him, Stephen turns to his enduring love for Isabelle for the strength to continue and to save something for future generations.
Birdsong goes into rehearsal in early August and performances are set to begin at the Comedy Theatre on September 18, with opening night on September 28.
The play is scheduled to run through January 15, 2011. (Buy Tickets)
