Miscellaneous tidbits
From Corona...
And last but certainly not least, there's one
final piece of juicy insider talk to share with you today: the filmmakers are
also looking for a recognizable actress to play the role of the adult
Wendy
who recounts her tale of adventures with Peter Pan. They want to cast a star in
this small but vital role in the vein of Anthony Hopkins' part in Dr. Seuss How
the Grinch Stole Christmas. And who's the actress they have in mind?
Uma Thurman.
The production is trying to find a way to arrange
for a meeting between Thurman and the filmmakers, which is more complicated than
usually should be. Right now Thurman is on location in China filming Quentin
Tarantino's Kill Bill, and they'll have to work around her schedule if they want
things to work out. Thurman's part would amount to about 3 minutes of screen
time -- it's two pages worth of material in the working script -- but there
would be a number of spoiler surprises in those important scenes.
● Interview with FEMAIL.com
Now you have Peter Pan coming up, is that right?
JI: Yes, I'm living on the Gold Coast shooting Peter Pan. Which is incredibly
exciting because it's actually the first film of Peter Pan that has ever been
made. When I say that most people frown slightly and go, "What about ….?" And
then they realise they have nothing to follow up with. Then you think "What
about the cartoon?" then they realise it's not a film it's a cartoon. Then there
is 'Hook' but that is a story about a middle-aged man who can't stop using his
mobile phone and Wendy's story doesn't even get a look in.
Ours is done just how JM Barry wanted it. It's about a 12-year-old girl living
in Victorian London who is told she has to grow up and so runs away to this
place that maybe is real or maybe is in her head. And the same actor gets to
play Mr. Darling and Captain Hook, which is fantastic for me. It does mean I
work twice as hard.
It's wonderful because it has all the special effects and the extravaganza of a
big budget film. But that's not half of it because it is a beautiful story of
the coming of age of a young girl. In the Victorian days there was no such thing
as adolescence, you were a child and then you were a woman being prepared for
marriage. I can't imagine how terrifying that must have been.
So far I have only shot the Mr. Darling Victorian London stuff and as Mr.
Darling's character I'm terribly constricted of course by Victorian Society, so
I can't wait to throw all that off and play the loose carnal Hook. It's going to
be wonderful.
