The voice of Captain Hook (played by Jude Law) opens Disney+’s Peter Pan & Wendy teaser trailer asking, “Tell me, how did you come to Neverland?” That’s followed by Wendy meeting the Lost Boys (and girls), which leads to our first glimpse of Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, and Tiger Lily before Captain Hook finally reveals himself at the end of the trailer.
Alexander Molony (The Reluctant Landlord) and Ever Anderson (Black Widow) lead the cast in the title roles. Yara Shahidi (Grown-ish) plays Tinkerbell, Molly Parker (House of Cardss) is Mrs. Darling, and Alan Tudyk (Resident Alien) plays Mr. Darling. Joshua Pickering (A Discovery of Witches) is John, Jacobi Jupe is Michael, Alyssa Wapanatâhk (Bones of Crows) plays Tiger Lily, and Jim Gaffigan (The Jim Gaffigan Show) stars as Smee.
The teaser trailer confirmed Peter Pan & Wendy will premiere on Disney+ on April 28, 2023.
The live-action movie is based on J.M. Barrie’s classic novel and the 1953 animated film.
David Lowery (The Green Knight, Pete’s Dragon) co-wrote the screenplay with Toby Halbrooks and directed.
“In making Peter Pan & Wendy, we set out to craft a film that honors both the original J.M. Barrie text and Walt Disney’s animated adaptation; we wanted to invigorate our retelling with emotional sincerity, an open heart, and a grand yearning for adventure. Hundreds of incredible artists spent many years bringing this film to the screen; I’m excited for audiences to see their work, to go on this ride, and to rediscover an evergreen tale from a new perspective,” said director/co-writer David Lowery.
Jim Whitaker serves as producer, and Adam Borba, Thomas M. Hammel, and Toby Halbrooks executive produce.
