Hugh Jackman cast as Blackbeard in upcoming Peter Pan film!


Warner Bros. has made a big announcement concerning their upcoming untitled Peter Pan film and comic movie fans will be happy. It has been revealed that Hugh Jackman has just been cast in "Peter Pan" as the film's villainous pirate, Blackbeard!

Jackman will join the cast alongside actor Garrett Hedlund who will be playing Captain Hook. The role of Peter Pan has not yet been filled. This film, directed by Joe Wright, will focus on an orphan who is taken to a magical land and becomes a hero to the natives when he battles the villainous pirates. An interesting twist to the story is that it appears that Peter will fight along side Captain Hook as an ally against the main antagonist, Blackbeard. Perhaps by the end of the film we'll see why Captain Hook and Peter Pan really become enemies.

Do you think that Jackman can pull off a convincing villainous pirate?

"Peter Pan" will fly into theaters on July 17, 2015.
