"That was what was exciting about making this film as a whole," Peter Pan & Wendy director David Lowery tells Total Film and GamesRadar+ when we meet in London. "[It] was to take every one of those characters and explore that iconography, taking it out of the two dimensional plane in which it may have existed before, treating them as real people with real feelings and real pasts."
Peter Pan & Wendy takes us back on that familiar journey beyond the Second Star to the Right, but it's the story like you've never seen it before. As Lowery explains, each character is fully fleshed out and none more so than Neverland's most infamous villain. "That was what Jude [Law] and I explored as we developed Captain Hook," the director continues.
