20th Century Fox has pencilled in the third Chronicles Of Narnia film, Voyage Of The Dawn Treader, for release on December 10, 2010, says Variety.
The move returns the franchise to winter, where first instalment The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe opened in 2005, grossing $745 million (£505 million).
The subsequent sequel, Prince Caspian, debuted in early summer last year but was less successful at the box office, taking in $419 million (£284 million).
Fox jumped in to rescue the C.S. Lewis fantasy franchise in January after Walt Disney Pictures pulled out of making Dawn Treader, with Walden Media citing budgetary concerns.
Production on Dawn Treader will reportedly begin in Australia this summer, with returning cast members Ben Barnes, Skandar Keynes and Georgie Henley being joined by Will Poulter as Eustace Clarence Scrubb.
Michael Apted (The World Is Not Enough) is attached to direct from a script by Richard LaGravenese.
