What is the plot of Peter Pan and Wendy?
A long time ago, Walt Disney was interested in making a movie about Peter Pan. He said he wanted to make it in 1935 but he couldn’t. Disney watched the play when he was a child. He liked it very much and he has liked the characters and story ever since then. The plan was to make the film after Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. But Pearl Harbor was bombed, so the military took control of the studio and they made films to train people for war instead. In 2022, Disney is going to make a movie about the famous story. They will use real people instead of cartoons. Lost children will be curious about how Disney plans to bring back characters. Disney has not yet said, but we do know some things.
The announcement of Peter Pan and Wendy came early in 2016. David Lowery and Toby Halbrooks worked together on the 2016 Pete’s Dragon remake. They came together again to work on the script for the film. David Lowery is also credited as the director and writer for the upcoming The Green Knight. Toby Halbrooks has writing credits for the short film Dig and he also has producer credits for 2017’s A Ghost Story and 2020’s Miss Juneteenth.

What are fans expecting from Peter Pan and Wendy?
The live-action Peter Pan is expected to be a much darker and more intense film than the 1953 animated Disney version, in which Tinker Bell was just a voiceover. The first trailer for the live-action adaptation hinted at that new tone with its opening scene of Wendy (played by actress Ever Anderson) screaming while running through dark forests something she didn’t do in the original movie.
Sandy Powell has been tapped as costume designer, who won an Academy Award for her work on 2017’s period drama ˜Darkest Hour’. This will mark Powell’s second collaboration with director David Lowery following 2016s ‘Pete’s Pete: Lost Boys.’
