It's a departure from Joe's usual period dramas, and joining Hugh is Oscar nominee Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily, Garrett Hedlund as a young Hook, and newcomer Levi Miller as Peter.The world of Neverland is bright and bold, but the classic rivalries still exist - although the young Hook, a miner with a comedic streak, becomes one of Peter's biggest allies in this early tale.
