In the new Star Wars: Skeleton Crew series on Disney+, Jude Law's character is revealed to be the masked pirate Captain Silvo, initially thought to be a Jedi named Jod Na Nawood. The series, which features a children-led cast, follows Silvo as he stages a jailbreak with the kids, while his former pirate crew seeks revenge. Law hints at more revelations about his character in future episodes, particularly Episode 7.
Disney+ has announced that "Star Wars: Skeleton Crew" will premiere a day earlier than planned, now set for December 2 at 6 p.m. PST. The series, featuring Jude Law and directed by a team including Jon Watts and Bryce Dallas Howard, follows four kids who embark on an unexpected adventure in a dangerous galaxy. Subsequent episodes will release on Tuesdays.
Director David Lowery defends his casting choices for Disney's live-action update of Peter Pan & Wendy, which features Lost Girls and Yara Shahidi as Disney's first Black Tinkerbell. Lowery hopes to recreate the experience of being scared but wanting to rewatch childhood favorites like Time Bandits and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Jude Law, who plays Captain Hook, credits the script for providing emotional ammunition for his character's revised origin story. Peter Pan & Wendy is currently streaming on Disney+.
Disney's live-action remake of "Peter Pan & Wendy" updates the classic story by making Captain Hook a tragic figure, giving Wendy a fleshed-out arc, including girls and boys of different races in the Lost Kids group, making Tinker Bell kinder and more supportive, and creating a "corrective" version of Tiger Lily with the help of Native consultants and actress Alyssa Wapanatâhk. The Crocodile is also more menacing in the live-action version. The film stars Jude Law as Captain Hook and is directed by David Lowery.
The live-action version of "Peter Pan & Wendy" directed by David Lowery and streaming on Disney+ is a Wendy-driven retelling of the classic story, with Ever Anderson delivering a touching performance as Wendy and Jude Law giving a memorable turn as Captain Hook. The film features diverse casting and action-packed scenes, while emphasizing the themes of connection and individual paths. Kids will enjoy the adventure, and the retelling does nothing to harm the impact of the timeless story.
