Release date

There is no release date yet announced for 'Peter Pan & Wendy.' 

Plot

Based off of the 1953 novel by JM Barrie, Peter Pan is a mischievous child who fears growing up. He brings Wendy, John and Michael Darling to Neverland, a fantasy island filled with dreaded pirates, adventure, and a group of Lost Boys who never want to grow up. From the film's title, it appears that 'Peter Pan & Wendy' will focus more closely on the relationship between Wendy and Peter, though no more information has been released.
