| + | ==About Susan== | ||
| + | Susan is the practical older sister in the Pevensie family. When the children first step into Narnia through the wardrobe, they follow her sensible suggestion and use the fur coats. In ''Prince Caspian'', she is among the last to believe [[Lucy Pevensie|Lucy]]'s claim that she has seen [[Aslan]]. Susan's absence in ''The Last Battle'' makes her one of the most controversial characters in the series. | ||

"I think I sort of pretended I didn’t mind [about getting the part] right up until the last couple of weeks and then I really did mind. I think I probably deafened Mark and Andrew with screams of joy." — Anna Popplewell | "I think I sort of pretended I didn’t mind [about getting the part] right up until the last couple of weeks and then I really did mind.

"Anna was somebody who I was just blown away by. I remember she just arrived early for an audition scene and just came in and sat down and talked to me and I could have been talking to a 25-year-old, just so together and smart and mature and so many of those things that I wanted Susan to be." — Director Andrew Adamson | "Anna was somebody who I was just blown away by.
