JUDE LAW: I was very lucky in that an awful lot of it is ultimately explained in the brig scene with Wendy. Jude, did you come up with any little details on your own that maybe we don't see or hear about directly in the film, but we can feel informing your performance that you hope viewers pick up on? That gives me a perfect segue! You guys open up a pretty significant door to a lot of backstory for Hook that we've never explored before. And that was a process to get to that point. And that led to a lot of the wonderful new material we've got about Hook and Peter that, when I first went into the studio and pitched my take, that certainly wasn't on the table, but it became the centrifuge of the entire movie in so many ways. Let's start to ask questions about these characters,” because I was starting to feel curious about them. And then at a certain point, we realized, “Let's slow it down a little bit. When I set out to make the movie initially, I was like, “Let's do a 90-minute Peter Pan adventure movie that hits all the beats, we're in and out, and it's just fast and furious.” Not like literally the Fast & Furious movies, but that we just keep moving. To get an example, can you share something specific that changed throughout that process? The joy of working on something for this long, and this is certainly the longest I've ever worked on one thing, is seeing those watermarks along the way, of seeing how it develops, seeing how it changed, seeing how I changed as I made this film. There were so many twists and turns the project took over the years that I just could not have dreamed up back then, whatever day in March of 2016 that I signed on to this. And it has the depth of character that I was yearning for when I thought of like, “How would I tell this story?” But there are so many things that I could never have anticipated. I think it is quite similar to what we had in mind in that it feels real, it's got the rush and the scope and the sense of adventure that, no pun intended, hooked me from the very beginning. ![]() What would you say is the biggest difference between how you pictured the film turning out when you first committed to making it and what we see in the final product?ĭAVID LOWERY: That's an excellent question. PERRI NEMIROFF: David, I was reading that Disney first approached you about this film when you were winding down on Pete's Dragon.
