Allison Williams was chosen by NBC to play Peter Pan, but we didn't get the opportunity to see her character in depth. The first photo of Williams as Peter Pan had been shown in the media. Williams looks amazing!
This is not the first time a girl was chosen to play a male role, and it will not be the last. It will be fascinating to see how fans respond and if she is able to make audiences believe she is Peter Pan, the viewers will doubt the character as a female.
Williams had volunteered to cut her hair for the role, but it seems she would not have to go that far, but she insisted. This is a big break for Williams, since the age of 3. It has been her dream to play Peter Pan, and now it is materializing.
She said during the interview with NBC Today, "I sort of very tentatively offered to cut my hair, I was like, 'You know, if it's a thing that would help I could cut my hair,' and they were like, 'You're welcome to do that, we're still gonna put you in a wig."
For those wondering what the show is, it is entitled, Peter Pan Live and its format is a live/theatrical performance that will be shown on NBC. Robbie Kay played Peter Pan in
Once Upon A Time, but Peter Pan Live is entirely different from it.
The network is looking to creating a full-fledged TV show, where there will be guests every episode, for this liver Peter Pan show. Surely, this is a first in the history of television.
Peter Pan Live will premier on Dec 6, 2014. There are interesting videos of Williams art of flight routine training uploaded in her Instagram, It offers a perfect representation of what the audience could expect from the show.
