Director Marc Forster's follow-up to Monster’s Ball is J.M. Barrie's Neverland, a tale of magic and fantasy inspired by the life of James Barrie, the real-life author of the children’s classic Peter Pan. Set in London in 1904, the film follows Barrie’s creative journey to bring Peter Pan to life, from his first inspiration for the story up until the play’s premiere at the Duke of York’s Theatre - a night that will change not only Barrie’s own life, but the lives of everyone close to him.

David Magee’s screenplay is based on the play The Man Who Was Peter Pan written by Allen Knee. The film stars Johnny Depp, Kate Winslet, Julie Christie, Radha Mitchell and Dustin Hoffman.
