A haunting
tale of adventure discovery and dreams, Peter Pan has thrilled
audiences around
the world since it premiered on a London stage 100 years
ago. The classic story of a boy who wouldn’t grow up – and
the girl whose family insists she must – has never
been fully realised on screen. Until now.
Universal Pictures, Columbia Pictures
and Revolution studios are proud to present the first live-action,
feature film
version of Peter Pan since the silent era. And for the first
time, a boy – Jeremy Sumpter (Frailty) – stars
in the title role – opposite Jason Isaacs (The Patriot,
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets) as Capitan James
Hook.
In stifling Edwardian London, Wendy Darling mesmerises her
brothers nightly with bedtime tales of swordplay, swashbuckling
and the fearsome hook. But the children become part of an
even greater story when Peter Pan flies into their nursery
one night and leads them over the moonlit rooftops through
a galaxy of stars to the lush jungles of Neverland.
Wendy and her brothers join Peter and the Lost Boys in an
exhilarating life free of grown up rules, while also facing
the inevitable showdown with Hook and his bloodthirsty pirates.
With unbounded imagination and the
latest in visual effects, writer-director P.J. Hogan (My
Best Friend’s Wedding)
and producers Lucy Fisher and Douglas Wick (Gladiator, Stuart
Little) bring all the wonder danger and excitement of this
timeless tale to life.
