In Steven Spielberg’s Hook, what is the name of the adult Peter Pan’s wife?
Answer
Moira Banning
Answer
Moira Banning
Moira Banning is the wife of the adult Peter Pan in Steven Spielberg’s 1991 film Hook.
The film reimagines Peter Pan as Peter Banning, a work-focused adult who has forgotten Neverland. Moira is Wendy Darling’s granddaughter, connecting the film’s modern family story to J. M. Barrie’s original characters. Peter and Moira have two children, Jack and Maggie.
Moira’s family relationship is sometimes confused because the film also features Wendy Darling, played as an older woman by Maggie Smith. Wendy is not Peter’s wife in Hook; she is the woman who knew Peter in the original Neverland story.
After Captain Hook kidnaps Peter’s children, Peter returns to Neverland and gradually recovers his identity. Moira remains in London while Peter confronts the past he had tried to leave behind.
