Hugh Jackman becomes Blackbeard in the new Pan trailer
Because there haven't been enough new takes on Peter Pan recently, Warner Bros. Pictures is releasing Pan next summer.
The new film, though, focuses not on Captain Hook's influence on a young Pan, but on Blackbeard, played by Hugh Jackman. Blackbeard's men kidnap orphans, including Pan (Levi Miller).
Pan also stars Garrett Hedlund as Hook and Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily (yes, even in 2014, white actors are still playing Native Americans). --Meghan DeMaria
