Brief introduction of Captain Hook's content

Captain Hook was filmed according to the story of Peter Pan, but it is the first time that this film has been made into a movie directly based on the original novel.

About the film: After carefully analyzing james m. barrie's original novels, Hagen, the screenwriter and director, realized that "Peter Pan" was actually a story about Wendy's mysterious island adventure, so he turned Wendy into the protagonist in the film, and "Peter Pan" became a hero and a prince charming in the little girl's dream. This adaptation of the original work was immediately questioned by the fans of' Peter Pan', and the film company was also worried about it. After all, it was a $1 million film.

Director Hagen thinks that as long as the actor, scene and special effects of Peter Pan are well done, there is no need to worry about the protagonist changing from' Peter Pan' to' Wendy'. On computer special effects, the three companies jointly spent tens of millions of dollars to invite Hollywood's behind-the-scenes experts, including george lucas of Industrial Light Magic, who was responsible for providing visual special effects and animation cooperation for the film. Because there are many flying, fighting and fencing scenes in the film, especially Jeremy Sumpter, the actor of' Peter Pan', fought with Captain Hook several times, so several young actors received flying and fencing training five months before the filming started. During the training process, the little actors who have never been exposed to weapons, in order to make their performances more realistic, they have to practice with real iron swords, and they hit each other several times and bleed, and they all have some small scars after training. How to reproduce the fantasy island full of fairy tales has become the biggest problem faced by the crew. They have set up eight studios in the Australian jungle, the largest of which will shoot The Dark Castle's plays. There are not only castles, but also swimming pools.

In order to perfectly reproduce this hero' Peter Pan' for nearly a century and make a children's myth comparable to the Harry Potter series, Columbia Company originally conceived to make this film, and invited Revolutionary Film Studio and Universal to invest and cooperate together to participate in the production and publicity of the film. The film was finally shot and post-produced by Revolutionary Film Studio and Red Wheel Production Company. "Peter Pan" started filming as early as five years ago. It was originally scheduled to start shooting in August 2, and then the date was postponed again and again. It was not until two years later that filming started in Australia.
