Peter Pan - Portraying Peter

When Walt Disney cast Bobby Driscoll as Peter Pan, it marked the first time the title role was played by a male. In every mainstream production (stage and screen) of Peter Pan prior to Disney's, the role of Peter was always played by women.

Peter Pan - Second Star to the Right...

When Wendy asks Peter where he lives, Sir James Barrie's original text reads - "Second to the right," said Peter, "and then straight on till morning." Unaware that Peter was referring to Neverland, Wendy responds by laughing at Peter's unusual address.

Walt Disney's Peter Pan points out directions to Neverland, saying, "There it is Wendy. Second star to the right and straight on 'til morning."

Peter Pan - Neverland

After the success of Walt Disney's animated feature in 1954, most mainstream productions of Peter Pan refer to the magical world as Never Never Land, instead of the original Neverland.
