The Chronicles of Anna Popplewell
At the tender age of 16, Anna Popplewell, already a rising star, stepped into the magical wardrobe as "Susan Pevensie." Her charisma and stunning features not only dazzled producers but also left audiences spellbound. "Her charisma, her charm, and those bewitching facial features," they'd say, "and don't get us started on that gaze!"
But as the snow settled post-'Narnia,' whispers of Anna's whereabouts grew faint. Unlike her co-stars, who may have galloped towards Hollywood's glittering hills, Anna's journey took a different path. She shone as a lead in 'Halo 4' and reigned in 'The Reign' from 2013 to 2015.
In March of this year, Popplewell marked her theatrical debut, taking on a leading role in Harriet Madeley's innovative adaptation of 'Hedda Gabler' with a queer perspective. Later, in September, she starred in the horror film 'The Nun II'.
Life beyond the silver screen
Today, Anna Popplewell (now in her mid 30s) maintains a discreet presence, far from the Narnian spotlight. In 2016, she tied the knot with Sam Caird, and in August 2021, they welcomed a little one into their family. While she continues to act, fans are left dreaming of a day when she might once again step into a role as enchanting as "Susan Pevensie."
