Accents in the New Series
Posted: Oct 29, 2018 10:05 am
How do people feel about giving the different creatures and different nationalities in Narnia their own accents? They did a little of this in the Walden series with the Telmarines and I know some people found it cheesy. I believe the actor who played the White Witch's dwarf kept his own accent which I thought worked well for the character.
Of course, giving the Calormenes a specific accent runs the risk of offending people. It might seem like they're demonizing whatever nationality speaks with whatever accent is closest to it. I feel that creating various accents for the different kinds of characters would be a good idea though. It would show that the crew put thought and effort into creating the world of Narnia.
