"Prince Caspian" saw Edmund growing in stature and wisdom. Now in this new adventure, as he approaches manhood several years later, Edmund’s challenge is to serve and protect Narnia's new king, Caspian, as they set sail for the Far Eastern edge of Aslan's world in their quest to recover the swords of the missing Lords of Telmar. Keynes is the 18-year-old London-born performer who began his professional acting career at age nine in the Royal Shakespeare Company production of "Macbeth" for Britain's Channel 4 TV.

WILL POULTER (Eustace Scrubb)	WILL POULTER (Eustace Scrubb) made his professional acting debut as the school bully Lee Carter, whose love of the cinema leads to an unexpected bond with a well-mannered schoolmate and the pair's desire to emulate their favorite action hero on their own homemade video in the charming coming-of-age tale, "Son of Rambow". The film premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, where its enthusiastic reception led to showings at the Toronto International Film Festival, Newport Beach Film Festival, Seattle International Film Festival, Glasgow Film Festival and the 51st BFI London Film Festival. The film went on to win Best Comedy at the UK's Empire Awards and the Audience Award at the Locarno Film Festival in Switzerland.

Poulter is a London native whose love of performing began at the age of four with the role of an elf in a local school play. Over the years, he continued acting in school productions while never taking any formal drama lessons. He was subsequently "discovered" by casting director Susie Figgis at the secondary school he attends, Harrodian, whose active drama department is on the local film/TV industry's radar for fresh, new talent. Poulter is also part of the ensemble cast (with other young comedic actors from the Harrodian School) in "School Of Comedy", whose pilot episode aired on Channel 4's Comedy Lab in August, 2008. "School Of Comedy" has since been commissioned for a full series by Channel 4, with the first season's broadcast beginning in the Fall, 2009.
