Present Day?

Is the 1940s setting absolutely essential to a Narnia adaptation? Or would you be open to setting the story in the present day?

Food for thought: CS Lewis did not write a period story. LWW was published just 10 years after the story takes place. Most of the first readers of Narnia had very recent memories of how the war affected them. It would be like writing a story today that was set in 2014.

I hope the time and place of the adaptations will be the same as the original books. I am certain that C. S. Lewis would have wanted it that way.
