Disney to Bring Peter Pan Back to the Big Screen

Deadline is reporting that Disney has hired writer Jesse Wigutow to adapt the best selling children’s novel Peter and the Starcatchers into a movie. The book was released by Disney Hyperion Publishing and was co-authored by Dave Barry and Ridley Peterson. It is a prequel to J.M Barrie’s classic novel and tells Peter’s back story. Since Peter and the Starcatchers is the first in a series, it is possible that this could turn into a franchise if the first film is successful. The book has already inspired a hit Broadway show that recently received nice Tony Award nominations.
