Peter Pan

**Peter Pan** is the titular protagonist of Disney's 1953 animated feature film of the same name. Peter travels from the enchanted isle of Neverland all the way to London just to hear Wendy Darling spin tales about him and his adventures. While his ego may seem inflated at times, even his arch-nemesis Captain Hook knows that Peter's no ordinary boy. He can fly without wings and match Hook's cutlass with nothing more than a dagger. He is also the undisputed leader of the Lost Boys and allows no breaks in the ranks. Time makes little difference to him; when you never grow up, life is nothing but fun, whimsy, and adventure.

## Background

Peter Pan is a young boy who lives on the island of Neverland. He has a fairy called Tinker Bell, who is his best friend and sidekick. He is the current leader of the Lost Boys. He spends most days going on adventures and battling the notorious pirate Captain Hook.

An earlier story idea involved Peter's birth and how he came to be. When he was an infant, fairies entered his home and took him away to Neverland. When Peter returned, he discovered another baby in his mother's bed. Feeling rejected and forgotten, Peter left and returned to Neverland - now his home. Eventually, Peter met Tinker Bell and gathered a group of younger kids and created the Lost Boys. The idea was dropped early in production as Walt Disney believed that how Peter came to be was another story.

### Personality

> He flies without wings. His shadow leads a merry little life of its own. Face-to-face with the terrible Captain Hook, Peter dispatches that pirate with jaunty ease. Peter is at home with mermaids and understands their language. He is twelve years old forever simply because he refuses to grow up beyond that comfortable age. Most remarkable of all, he knows where Never Land is and how to get there.

> Walt Disney

Peter Pan is incredibly adventurous and daring. His favorite activities include battling pirates, engaging in friendly wars with the Indians, and listening to Wendy's stories of his adventures. Being a young boy, Peter can be rather impractical and conceited at times, but when it comes to rescue his friends, he is far more mature than any adult can be. He is respected and loved by nearly every inhabitant of Never Land, with the exception of Captain Hook (and his crew), who despises Peter for cutting off his left hand and feeding it to Tick-Tock the Crocodile during their first battle. Ever since, Peter and Hook have been at each other's throats constantly, battling in the hope that one would finally "walk the plank." One of the many things Peter discards is adulthood. This drove him to create a team of kids who also desire to stay young who he deems the Lost Boys. One can say Peter stands as a father figure for the group as well. Peter's most trusted companion is Tinker Bell. Even though they have a close best friend relationship, it is obvious Tink has strong feelings for Peter. Whether or not he is actually aware is currently unknown, although, in the first film, when Tink was close to death, Peter stated: "Don't you understand, Tink, you mean more to me than anything in the world!"

Despite being heroic and charming, Pan can be quite cocky, and being an immortal child somewhat, he can also be quite immature, and as such, he enjoys goofing off, listening to stories, playing "pretend", and parties with his friends. Peter's youthful nature symbolizes his place in childhood wonder. Even so, Peter can also be very adult. By the end of the film, despite proclaiming his hatred for adulthood with great intensity, Peter eventually comes to put his more childlike nature aside for the sake of protecting Tinker Bell, Wendy, her brothers, and the Lost Boys. With this, he brings himself to serve as a more adult figure, by risking his life for the sake of his loved ones, and selflessly escorting Wendy and her brothers home to London, despite his desire to have them stay.

This directly ties into his dynamic with Captain Hook who, despite Peter developing into a child with an adult mindset, is very much an adult with a more childish mindset, being loud, overly commanding, dependent on others, and prone to tantrums.

### Physical appearance

Many of Walt Disney's envisioned characters went through an evolution of designs, and Peter Pan is no exception. Most model sheets depicted Peter as a small little boy but soon later changed into more of a fairytale-like creature. Finally, Peter was given the look of a nearly teenaged boy. He has fair skin, rosy cheeks, short red hair, thick red eyebrows, brown eyes, and pointy elf-like ears. His outfit resembles an elf's attire, consisting of a green short-sleeved tunic with a collar and a long V-cut neckline down to his heart, olive tights, and sienna-colored moccasin shoes. He wears a green Robin Hood-like hat (called a bycocket) with a red feather situated on the left-hand side, and has a brown belt around his waist which usually holds his dagger.

### Powers and abilities

* **Flight:** Peter's most unique trait is his ability to fly without any physical methods, he uses this to gain the advantage on those who cannot.
* **Semi-Immortality:** Peter cannot die of old age, but it is never stated whether or not he can survive death.
	+ **Eternal Youth:** Peter cannot age due to living in Neverland which his claims suggest that it prevents people from aging.
* **Dagger-Fighting:** Peter is very skilled with his trusty dagger, able to wield it with such skill he can fight a master swordsman, like his nemesis Captain Hook, and hold his own. However, Peter often fights while flying, which gives him an edge; when he fights Hook without flying, he is almost killed.
* **Voice Mimicry:** Peter has an uncanny talent for impersonating others' voices, as he does when he imitates Hook and tries to trick Mr. Smee into taking Tiger Lily back to her people. In *Kingdom Hearts*, he imitates Smee to lure out Hook, and in both cases, Smee and Hook are fooled.

## Appearances

### *Peter Pan*

 File:Peter-pan-disneyscreencaps.com-2191.jpg
Peter first appears returning to Wendy's home to retrieve his shadow (bringing Tinker Bell in tow), but accidentally wakes up Wendy, John, and Michael in the process while he is chasing it. After Wendy sews it back on, they begin to talk, during which time Wendy reveals she does not want to grow up. Peter then decides to take Wendy and her brothers to Never Land so she will never have to grow up, and for Wendy to be a mother of the Lost Boys. Once they arrive, they are attacked by Captain Hook, who assaults them with his cannon. While he distracts the pirates, Peter orders Tinker Bell to take the Darlings to safety, only to find that Tinker Bell had attempted to have the Lost Boys kill his new friend Wendy (by telling them that Pan told her Wendy was a terrible "Wendy bird" and that they were ordered to shoot her down). Peter swoops in just in time to save Wendy, and after chastising the boys, learns that Tinker Bell was the mastermind and they had been tricked. Peter angrily tells Tink she is banished permanently, though Wendy pleads him not to be that harsh. He tells her she can come back within a week, but Tink is already gone, still believing she can never return to Peter's side. After this, Peter takes Wendy to see the mermaids of Mermaid Lagoon. While there, they spy Captain Hook and his right-hand man, Mr. Smee, with the Indian princess Tiger Lily as a captive, rowing toward Skull Rock, where they plan to interrogate her.

Peter and Wendy investigate and find that Hook is planning to learn the location of Peter's hideout. Peter then fakes Hook's voice toward Smee to convince him to free the Princess, and Peter is able to rescue Tiger Lily. Although Smee proves to be gullible, Hook catches Peter and they begin a bout of swordplay. Ultimately, Peter's ability to fly gives him the upper hand, and he escapes with Tiger Lily and Wendy. For his bravery, Peter is rewarded by Tiger Lily's father the Indian Chief, who crowns Peter "Little Flying Eagle", thus making him another chief of the Indians. Peter then returns home with the Darlings and the Lost Boys. Peter realizes Wendy is ready to return home and, even worse for Peter, the Lost Boys wish to have a real mother and return home with Wendy. Peter tells them once they grow up, they can never return. Peter really does not worry knowing they will return eventually. Unbeknownst to Peter, however, his friends are actually kidnapped by Hook and his crew the moment they exit Hangman's Tree.

Peter is then a victim of Hook's newest scheme: Hook plants a bomb in Peter's home while he and Tinker Bell are inside it. While Peter has truly survived and unharmed, Tinker Bell is fatally injured and Hangman's Tree has been destroyed. While she tells Peter that Hook has Wendy and the boys and that he needs to save them, he refuses to leave her and begs her to stay alive, saying that he loves her more than anything. Together, Peter and Tinker Bell fly over to The *Jolly Roger* ship to battle the pirates. After the pirates are done with, Peter takes on Hook alone atop the ship. As Hook is about to strike Peter in the back while he is off guard letting out a triumphant crow, Wendy quickly warns him, having Peter fly out of the way and leaving Hook to plummet into the sea where he is chased away by the crocodile. The Lost Boys, Michael, John, Tinker Bell, and Wendy all celebrate Pan's victory. Peter commands Tink to cover the ship in pixie dust so that he may drop Wendy and her brothers off home to London.

### *Return to Never Land*

 File:Peterpan2-disneyscreencaps.com-4404.jpg
Peter and Tinker Bell are out and about in Never Land and pay Hook a little visit, only to discover Hook has a girl being held captive, who the Captain claims to be Wendy. Pan becomes serious and battles the Captain to rescue his friend. After Hook is defeated, he frees the girl, but instead of reuniting with Wendy, he meets her daughter Jane, who unlike Wendy is rather practical.

He takes the newcomer to his hideout and introduces her to the Lost Boys. The boys begin to surround her, asking to play all sorts of games and activities, which causes Jane to lose her temper and storm off. Peter and Tinker Bell follow her and witness her collecting supplies and boarding them on a raft. After the failed attempt to ride off home, Peter informs her that the only way to go home is to fly. He takes her on a lesson, and oblivious to Peter, Captain Hook is spying on them and plans to use Jane's desires to get home against his enemies. Jane's first take-off fails. Peter finds her beloved notepad and begins playing rugby with it. It is accidentally eaten by Cubby, causing Jane to yet again go into a complete rage to the point where she declares that she does not believe in fairies, and storm away for good. Jane's non-belief causes Tinker Bell to become ill.

The only way to save Tink is to have Jane believe again in magic. The friends set off to find her, but she finds them instead. She suggests playing treasure hunt (as part of Hook's plan to retrieve his treasure in exchange for giving her a ride home), to which Peter agrees. She finds the treasure, but she changes her mind about Hook, but Tootles finds their communication whistle and unknowingly alerts Hook. Peter angrily calls Jane a traitor and warns her that Tink's light is going out. Jane rushes there while Peter and the boys are captured and taken to Hook's ship.

Peter, being strapped to an anchor, is about to walk the plank until Jane arrives with Tinker Bell fully charged. She frees Peter and the Lost Boys until Hook traps her by the neck with his hook. Peter returns the favor and cuts Hook loose falling through the ship and sinking with it until he and his crew are chased by the octopus. Peter personally escorts Jane back to London with the Lost Boys. Peter and Tink reunite with the now grown-up Wendy. Originally upset at the fact that Wendy has changed by growing up, Peter happily accepts it after Wendy assures him that even though she has grown up, she has not really changed and still believes in him. After the reunion, Peter and Tink watch Wendy and her children happily greet Jane's father as he returns from war, and they then fly back to Never Land.

In the special, Peter returns to Never Land to recruit Jake, Izzy, Cubby, and Skully to find his shadow, who escaped to Never Land. Without his shadow, Peter is plunged into a depressive state, unable to fly, causing more problems for the heroes and giving a plus to the revenge-seeking Captain Hook, who manages to capture the shadow, and attempts to use it as leverage to capture and exile Pan from Never Land. Eventually, Peter and the shadow are rejoined and leave Never Land once again to explore new parts of the world. However, Peter promises that he will be back soon.

Peter later reappears in the episode coming to Jake and his crews' aid defending his shadow from the wicked shadow pirate Shade. Pan last appears in the episode as he greets Hook and his crew on the Jolly Roger and points out the Tick-Tock Croc on deck. Hook refuses to be tricked by Pan, believing it to be the cardboard cutout croc Sharky and Bones used on their prank on him earlier in the episode. Hook attempts to toss it overboard until he realizes it's the real crocodile and is chased across the deck of the ship. Smee, Sharky, and Bones wish Peter a happy Pirate Fools Day from the safety of the ship's mass before Pan leaves.

Peter is primarily the focus in the final episode, "Captain Hook's Last Stand!". In the episode, the pirates celebrate Peter's official homecoming from the lands beyond the Never Sea (not counting his visits throughout the series). When showing his treasures to his mates, he unveils a powerful artifact: The Doom Stone, a cursed relic that can turn whoever uses it into stone, along with the user's targets. Unfortunately, Captain Hook devises yet another plot to get revenge on Peter Pan. He steals the Doom Stone and turns Peter into stone, (whilst turning himself into a darker, destructive, more powerful version of himself). Luckily, Peter is freed from his stone prison after being kissed by Wendy and is once again free to explore and defend Never Land, now with the help of the pirate boy-turned legend, Captain Jake.

### Other appearances

 File:Peter Pan & Wendy - Photography - Peter Pan.jpg

When he returned to his home, his mother was long dead, and someone was living in his home. He then met James Hook and the two became friends until Hook wanted to see his mom and left Peter. When Hook returned to him, Peter learned that Hook has changed, he cut his hand off and threw to the Crocodile. Peter could never accept him and the two friends now became enemies.

Peter Pan arrives at the Darling family's house where he approaches Wendy, John, and Michael who are all in bed to which as he arrives, the three suddenly wake up to see Peter Pan as Wendy curiously questions to know how he is real which Peter replies that he likes to hear stories about him, as he found the Darling family's house the perfect place where people believe in him and tell stories about him. However, in a plan to get the children of the Darling family out of the house, he decides to find his shadow to help him fly with him which he suddenly catches his shadow before it goes downstairs. After Peter caught his shadow, Wendy asks him to know how he knew her name which Peter recaps that he heard Wendy's mother Mary call her, but Wendy never wanted to go as Peter was waiting for her to come with him to Neverland. Upon hearing Tinker Bell jingling, Peter tells Wendy that it's time for her and the children to go to Neverland, the place where no one grows up. Peter then tells Wendy, John, and Michael that in order to fly, all they have to do is think of happy thoughts with faith, trust, and a little bit of Pixie Dust which Tinker Bell sprinkles Pixie Dust as Wendy finds herself flying, followed by Michael and John flying thanks to the Pixie Dust effect just as Peter and Tinker Bell bring the children out of the house on their way to Never Land. As Peter and the children fly past the Big Ben, they fly into the Second Star to the Right where they end up in Neverland, the place where children never grow up.

Arriving at Never Land, Peter and the children encounter a group of mermaids swimming below them while flying across the landscape of Neverland; suddenly, a nearby pirate alerts Captain Hook about seeing Peter Pan, who has arrived back at Never Land, leading Hook to send his crew to fire cannonballs at Peter and his friends by firing cannonballs at them. Peter attempts to lead them to a safe spot to avoid getting hit by cannonballs as they arrive at Neverland. Just as they land at the edge of Neverland, Peter sees the Jolly Roger from a distance, telling Wendy, John, and Michael that Captain Hook is the one leading the attack against them. Peter then lands on the other side far away from the Jolly Roger where he devises a plan, telling the children that they will create a plan to distract Hook which they are suddenly struck by Hook while Wendy suddenly finds herself on the beach washed ashore. Suddenly, Peter survives the battle against Captain Hook and his crew where he then appears disguised as a pirate where he arrives at Skull Rock, as Hook and his crew approach Peter wearing a pirate disguise. As they see Peter wearing a fake beard and a pirate hat, they realize that the pirate in disguise was none other than Peter Pan. After Peter removes his disguise, Tinker Bell tells him that now is the chance to escape which Peter outsmarts the pirates followed by Tinker Bell taking on other pirates, knocking them into the water which the two were able to foil the pirates, just Captain Hook engages in a confrontation against Peter Pan who is threatening to kill him, much to Wendy's worry to which as Hook attempts to attack, a massive Crocodile emerges from the water, foiling Hook and his crew just as Peter Pan gets Wendy, John, Michael, and Tiger Lily out of Skull Rock in time.

After escaping from Hook, Wendy discusses with Peter that she had a dangerous adventure during her encounter with Captain Hook to which while discussing, she tells Peter if he could beat Captain Hook on his own which Peter replies that he doesn't need any help, just as Peter tells Wendy and the Lost Children that nothing ever changes in Neverland just before Wendy follows alongside her brothers as well as the Lost Children into their hideout. Wendy then encounters Peter who is at the Lost Children's Hideout where discusses with Wendy about telling the Lost Children his story but Wendy instead sings a lullaby to them instead. As Wendy sings "All Grown Up" to the children, Peter sits alone studying his sword in his own room. Wendy then follows Tinker Bell into Peter's room where she approaches Peter who recaps that Captain Hook used to be friends with Peter, just as he describes him as the very first Lost Boy and after Hook left, he betrayed Peter and became a ruthless pirate captain just as Wendy tells Peter that Neverland is not exactly she was expecting just before Wendy exits Peter's room.

As Captain Hook enters Peter's room, he plans to kill Peter Pan who is attempting to hide from him like he did in the past. As Peter backs away, he starts falling down from high below while Tinker Bell attempts to rescue Peter to prevent him from hurting himself only for Tink to be captured by Mr. Smee with his beanie, much to Wendy, John, Michael, and the other Lost Children's worry just as Hook returns to the Jolly Roger alongside the rest of the crew with the children held captive. Suddenly, the Pixie Dust left by Tinker Bell sparkles over Peter, but still lies unconsciously while Peter's shadow runs past the Indian Camp to alert Tiger Lily of what happened to Peter, resulting in Tiger Lily to arrive at the spot where Peter is lying down unconscious at Lost Children's Hideout.

Tiger Lily arrives at the spot where Peter is lying down unconsciously just as Tiger Lily nurses Peter back to health. Peter, who regains his consciousness, tells Tiger Lily to know what happened to Tinker Bell and the Lost Children which Tiger Lily tells him that Hook and his crew have arrived at the hideout and captured them, leading Peter to find Hook and rescue Tink and the Lost Children. Peter attempts to fly, but realizes that he cannot, because he doesn't have the Pixie Dust to help him fly, as Tinker Bell has been captured. Seeing Peter having trouble, Tiger Lily plans to help Peter find an alternate way to get to Captain Hook so that he can rescue Tinker Bell.

The next day, Tiger Lily brings Peter to help him find Hook which Peter arrives confront him on the ship. Hook then approaches Peter who arrived on his ship and then tells him to know how he survived the fall, which Peter tells him that a little help from his friends helped him survive. Soon as Peter prepares to attack, Hook then engages in a sword fight with him in battle just as Wendy, Michael, John, the Lost Children, Tinker Bell, and Tiger Lily join the battle and fight off against the pirates. Peter then confronts Hook inside the cabin just as Wendy turns the ship upside down to drop the pirates out of their ship. As Hook attempts to strike Peter one last time, he leaps into a hatch which he gets stuck and about to fall off his ship only for Hook to land on the mast. Peter then urges Hook to apologize for his betrayal as Peter apologizes for hurting him, which Hook tells him that this isn't how it works. Wendy defends Peter from Hook while two Lost Boys fire a cannonball at Hook. As Hook is about to fall off his ship, Peter tells him to think of happy thoughts which Hook falls into the ocean, causing him to lose his hook. With Hook defeated, Peter then returns home by leaving Neverland, returning the children of the Darling family to their home.

After Wendy returns home, she approaches Peter crying on the rooftop of the Darling family's house where Peter recaps that the area where he is at used to be his home and his mother scolded him, telling him to grow up, but Peter refused to grow up, telling him that he misses his home and his mother as well as telling Wendy that he could come back to the Darling family's house as there are people who read stories about Peter Pan. Wendy then tells Peter to look at the right side just before Peter returns to Neverland with Tinker Bell. Peter smiles down at them just as he sails back to Neverland with Tink, followed by Captain Hook who survived the fall earlier and successfully returns a smile, implying that he has forgiven Peter.

## Trivia

* Peter Pan, in the Disney movie, is one of the few adaptations of the J.M. Barrie play where he is played by a male actor. In most versions, he is played by a female actress to resemble the pre-pubescent vocal styles and build of a young boy.
* Peter Pan was once considered to be voiced by a woman following the tradition of being portrayed by one in the original stage play. Among the considerations was that of Mary Martin, who later went on to portray the character the following year in the successful Broadway musical adaptation of the story.
	+ Anne Boonchuy can be seen wearing a Peter Pan costume during a play in the *Amphibia* episode "The First Temple".
* In Neverland, people never grow up. It is never confirmed how long Peter has been on the island or his actual age. It could be possible that Peter is hundreds or thousands of years old.
* J.M. Barrie had two inspirations for Peter Pan's name. The first is the mischievous Greek God, Pan. Peter's other namesake was Peter Llewelyn-Davies, who was one of the sons of his friend Sylvia Llewelyn-Davies. Peter and his brothers were the basis for Peter Pan and the Lost Boys.
* Peter Pan was nominated for AFI's 100 Years...100 Hero and Villain list, one of three animated heroes and one of four Disney heroes, along with Buzz Lightyear, Mary Poppins and Belle. Unfortunately, none of them made the cut.
* Not counting Mr. and Mrs. Darling, Peter Pan, ironically enough, is the only main character in the film who does not sing. He does, however, sing for the first time in *House of Mouse* in the episode "Donald Wants to Fly", and also sings in *Return to Never Land*.
* In an early draft of the *Tinker Bell* film, Peter Pan was originally featured in the film and was going to show how Tinker Bell met him. The draft and its film production eventually got scrapped due to budget constraints within DisneyToon Studios and the film being deemed “virtually unwatchable.”
* For *Once Upon a Time*, his casting call, using the codename "Rufio," describes him as "in his teens, and is a mischievous and devious Lost Boy". Like Hansel from Oz in s7, who masquerade as Jack, Peter Pan was not originally Pan but a different original character masquerading another character.
* Some of the promotional material for the *Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers* film had Pan listed as **Mean Dean**.
