The Darker Story of Neverland

6 Dec

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I have a thing for Peter Pan. I loved the books and the movies and the idea behind Peter Pan and Neverland. I’ve even written a short story featuring Peter.

There’s a new mini series on Syfy called Neverland. The show is a prequel to J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan. It’s about Peter before he became Pan, Hook before he became a captain, and the story that led them to become enemies.

This version of Peter Pan is darker, more complex, and more human. 

It’s Peter’s origin story and, though I haven’t watched it yet, it looks good.
