I'm pretty sure "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" was written first. It also has the most title recognition among the Narnia books - I'm sure I'm not the only one who was first introduced to the world in this book, and went on to discover the others. Hollywood adapts existing properties because they already have an established audience - it makes complete sense to start with the most well known book.
To my mind however, the other books in the series don't really have "blockbuster" written all over them. Apart from TLTWATW, I dont' see any of the other books having the same "must see" appeal as, for example, the Harry Potter sequels.
