A timeless story gets a fresh dusting of fairy magic with “Peter Pan & Wendy.”
Alexander Molony, left, Ever Anderson Joshua Pickering and Jacobi Jupe as Michael Darling appear in a scene from “Peter Pan & Wendy,” a movie making its debut on Disney+. A timeless story gets a fresh dusting of fairy magic with “Peter Pan & Wendy.”
“Peter Pan & Wendy” is directed by David Lowery, who co-wrote it with Toby Halbrooks. For evidence, look no further than his 2021 medieval fantasy, “The Green Knight.” “I feel more grown-up than I have in the past, and ironically, the thing that has always appealed to me about ‘Peter Pan’ is the idea of not growing up because I’ve been in arrested development for most of my life,” he says in the production notes. “But lately — and for the first time — I feel like I have taken the first step into adulthood. So I chose to approach the movie from that perspective.”
Wendy’s resistance to growing up draws a visit from the supposedly fictional Peter — who has absolutely no interest in growing up himself — and his diminutive fairy sidekick, Tinker Bell , who rings but doesn’t speak and dislikes remarks about her size. Flanked by his trusted first mate, Smee , Hook demands myriad rules be followed in Never Land, an important one being no one says the name “Peter Pan.” When that rule is broken, a door aboard the Jolly Roger bears the brunt of Hook’s anger — the third he’s destroyed this month.
