Let’s journey back to when we were kids where our parents would tell us about bedtime stories and let’s not forget our old time favorite story, the story about the boy who never grew up. The very first animated film of Peter Pan was made in the year 1953 and wow that was a long time ago and yet until now Peter Pan still lives. We have the Darlings, Tinkerbell, the lost boys, and of course Peter Pan and Captain Hook. Now we know the rivalry between Peter Pan and Captain Hook but it seems like in this movie it’s not what like it seems.
Now if you’re interested in this I suggest you watch the trailer. It seems like we’ll be introduced with a new character in the old tale of Peter Pan, Captain Blackbeard. Just like with the movie Maleficent, not everything is what it seems, there will always be an untold story and this time it’s between Peter Pan, Captain Hook and Blackbeard.
This upcoming fantasy movie is directed by Joe Wright and will be premiered in July 24, 2015. At first I never really recognized who was Blackbeard then I looked again and wow its Hugh Jackman who was better known for his role as Wolverine. Really cool outfits and then we also have Tiger Lily who in the animated films and some movies of Peter Pan was a Native American but in this one she’s Caucasian. It actually cost a bit of a casting controversy since it would seem like racism but then again maybe the Warner Brothers just want to make it unique.
When you see the trailer it actually showed the flying ship but instead of Captain Hook it was Captain Blackbeard and it would seem he and his crew kidnap children to enslave them in Neverland. Then there is Hook who looks nothing like a pirate and saving Tiger Lily then being captured by Blackbeard. Peter seen with a tribe surrounding him and telling him that he wears the Pan, which I’m sure, would be explained in the movie.
Oh and who could forget about mermaids? This movie is just really exciting since its obvious this movie was all about when Peter well when he was just a boy, not the boy who can fly, who can fight real good, who can never grow up. Then there is also Hook who looks more of a miner than a pirate and really I wonder what is really behind the story. Also Blackbeard who we have never heard or seen in other movies appearing and it would seem he is the main antagonist of this story and it would seem like Hook and Peter are actually on the same side.
You can just never predict what it to happen since it’s not every day you would see a movie about your favorite bedtime story being altered or what happened that made them be what they are in the stories you’ve heard. This movie is really for all ages and I’m sure the kids would want to watch this as it is full of adventure, fantasy and action. Let’s mark that calendar and let’s wait for the adventure to begin.
