Instead of being just the female lead, Wendy will be a co-protagonist with Peter as they journey through Neverland. Ever Anderson explained that her version of Wendy is being treated as an 'equal' to Peter Pan. Though the new title may seem like an innocuous change that has little meaning to the grand scheme of things, the inclusion of Wendy's name is significant, as highlighted by the cast at the D23 Studio Showcase. Why Is the Film Called Peter Pan & Wendy?

The latter sequence is shown in the poster for the film, with Peter and Wendy seen swashbuckling against the ship's pirates whilst flying through the air.

The shots of Peter and the kids are enchanting, the cinematography from director of photography Bojan Bazelli (also from Pete's Dragon) offers some beautiful landscape shots of Neverland, and a fight scene showcasing Captain Hook's flying ship under the cover of some cloudy mountains is a standout visual. The footage features a lot of the story beats you would expect from a Peter Pan adaptation, with Peter ( Alexander Molony) meeting the Darling siblings in their room before chasing his shadow, Peter and Tinker Bell ( Yara Shahidi) granting the siblings the power of flight and jumping off from Big Ben, and Captain Hook ( Jude Law) confronting Wendy ( Ever Anderson) for the very first time.ĭoesn't sound all that unique when comparing it to other Peter Pan adaptations, but the words hardly do justice to the incredible visuals on display by director David Lowery ( Pete's Dragon).
