What does William Moseley do now?
Recent film and television roles
William Moseley remains actively employed in the industry, having completed over thirty acting projects since his Narnia days (MN2S talent agency). In 2024 he appeared in the war film Murder Company, and by early 2025 he was cast as the lead in Luca Elmi’s thriller Hostage alongside Mark Valley (Deadline, industry publication). Two additional 2025 credits appear on his filmography: the horror game adaptation Home Sweet Home: Rebirth and the comedy Royal-ish (Rotten Tomatoes, film database).
Other professional pursuits
Beyond acting, Moseley has been represented by the CAM agency for talent booking (MN2S booking roster). He has not publicly announced any producing or directing credits, nor does he maintain a heavy social-media presence. His focus appears to be on securing lead and supporting roles across film genres.
Public appearances and interviews (2024–2025)
In 2025, Moseley participated in an event where he discussed Netflix’s planned Narnia adaptation, reflecting on the franchise’s legacy (YouTube, fan-recorded interview). He also featured in a BuzzFeed interview (not independently archived) marking the 20th anniversary of the first Narnia film.
The implication: Moseley’s career, while lower-profile, remains active and diversified across genres.
Is actor William Moseley married?
Public statements about marriage
As of 2025, there is no publicly confirmed marriage or spouse. A 2021 YouTube clip titled “William Moseley Talks Marriage” exists, but the content does not confirm he is married (YouTube, low-confidence source). News coverage from IMDb in March 2025 focused on his dating life rather than any marriage—again without a formal announcement (IMDb News, entertainment outlet).
Rumored or confirmed partner(s)
IMDb News reported in 2025 that Moseley’s longtime girlfriend was Kelsey Asbille, but the article explicitly states it is unclear whether they are still together (IMDb News). Just Jared published similar framing in 2023, again not indicating any confirmed marriage (Just Jared, celebrity news). The pattern suggests Moseley keeps his romantic life private.
Children (if any)
No credible source reports that William Moseley has children.
The persistent search for “William Moseley wife” reflects fan curiosity, not confirmed fact. The actor’s relationship status remains one of the least documented areas of his biography.
The pattern: the actor’s discretion about his personal life suggests he values privacy over publicity.
How old was William Moseley in Narnia?
Birth date and age at first Narnia film (2005)
William Peter Moseley was born on 27 April 1987 (Wikipedia, public biographical source). When The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe premiered in December 2005, he was 18 years old. His character Peter Pevensie is 13 in the books, making Moseley five years older than his on-screen age.
Age at subsequent Narnia films
By the time Prince Caspian released in 2008, Moseley had turned 21. For The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010), he was 23. In both sequels, Peter Pevensie’s book age is roughly 14–15, so the actor continued to play a younger character.
Comparison with co-stars’ ages
Anna Popplewell (Susan) was 16 during filming; Skandar Keynes (Edmund) was 14; Georgie Henley (Lucy) was 10. Moseley, at 18, was the oldest of the four child leads.
The age gap between actor and character is common in fantasy casting, but it shaped Moseley’s experience: he was legally an adult on set while playing a teenager, which influenced his later career trajectory as he aged out of child roles faster than his co-stars.
What this means: that age gap likely accelerated his transition from child star to adult roles.
Did William Moseley and Anna Popplewell ever date?
Fan speculation and interview clarifications
Rumors of a romance between Moseley and Anna Popplewell have circulated since the Narnia films. Both actors have consistently denied the speculation. In a 2025 interview, Moseley described the set as “like being in a dream” but did not mention any romantic relationship (YouTube, fan interview). No credible outlet has reported otherwise.
Their friendship on and off screen
Moseley and Popplewell played siblings Peter and Susan Pevensie. They have remained friends, but publicly available evidence points to a platonic friendship only.
Anna Popplewell’s current relationship status
Anna Popplewell married director Sam Caird in 2016, further putting the Moseley dating rumor to rest (Wikipedia, Anna Popplewell biography).
How much is William Moseley worth?
Reported net worth estimates
Third-party estimates vary widely. TheRichest, a celebrity-wealth site, placed Moseley’s net worth at $6 million in 2021 (TheRichest, entertainment finance). A 2026 Facebook video from an entertainment page gave a lower figure of $4 million (Facebook, low-authority source). Industry sources do not provide official financial disclosures, and the actor has never publicly discussed his earnings.
Income sources
His primary income comes from acting roles—the Narnia films (which grossed over $1.6 billion combined), his recurring role on the E! series The Royals, and recent film projects. He does not appear to have major endorsement deals or business ventures on public record.
Comparison with other Narnia cast members
By comparison, Georgie Henley (Lucy) and Skandar Keynes (Edmund) largely left acting; Anna Popplewell continues to act but without blockbuster salaries. Moseley’s consistent screen work places him among the more active Narnia alumni.
All net-worth figures for William Moseley are speculative. Without a public financial statement or a verified salary report, the $2–5 million range is an informed guess, not a fact.
The catch: without official figures, any net worth number should be taken as speculation.

Summary
William Moseley has successfully transitioned from child star to a working adult actor, maintaining a steady-if-quiet career in film and television. The biggest unknowns—his net worth, relationship status, and future plans—are unlikely to be resolved anytime soon given his preference for privacy. For fans hoping to see him return to a major franchise, the Narnia 20th-anniversary interview suggests he’s open to talking about the past but focused on the present. The trade-off for the actor: a lower public profile, but a sustainable career on his own terms.
