"Swinton is equally excited about her participation in Disney's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The actress spent 5 months in New Zealand shooting the film 'and had a fantastic time.' Swinton says she is genuinely convinced that fans of the classic books won't be disappointed in this big-budget screen adaptation. 'I'm really convinced that it will be exactly what it should be, which is a classical, very cinematic adaptation of that book. It's got a really 3D Technicolor, Wizard of Oz feel about it and one of the things that I think is very radical about what Andrew's done, is he is not interested in special effects anymore so everything's real, so you have real creatures. In other words, you don't have, as in Lord of the Rings, 500 extras that are doubled up to make 7,000. but actually have all of those people in all of those suits, being all of those mythical creatures.' Swinton says 'it was really good fun, and I really, really love New Zealand.'"
