Levi Miller to play Peter Pan

The search for Peter Pan has ended with newcomer Levi Miller.

When I say newcomer I mean it. Miller was a young version of a main character in Terra Nova and starred in two short films. Other than that there really isn't anything else on his resume.
Miller joins Hugh Jackman, Garrett Hedlund, and Rooney Mara in Joe Wright's Pan. It is set in the wake of WWII and follows a young orphan as he is kidnapped by pirates and brought to Neverland. The orphan learns his destiny to defeat Blackbeard.

We will see Pan in theaters on July 17, 2015.

Garrett Hedlund to play Captain Hook

Joe Wright's reboot for Peter Pan is shaping up smoothly. We just learned that the role of Captain Hook has gone to Garrett Hedlund (Tron: Legacy). Previously there were rumors that Hugh Jackman was being looked at for the role of Blackbeard.

Hedlund reportedly beat out Jack Huston and Ezra Miller for the role of Captain Hook. The role is described as a lead role, but it's not confirmed whether he is already a captain in this adaptation. Given the age of the actors being considered I wouldn't be surprised to see him be an ordinary pirate and not a captain just yet.

Pan is set for theaters on July 17, 2015.
