The first look into the live-action Peter Pan & Wendy is here and, just like every other Disney trailer, it’s getting trolled online.
Look, remaking a beloved adaptation is no small feat; however, it looks like internet pranksters have already come out guns a-blazing when it comes to the upcoming remake.
I’m sure you’ve seen the notorious ‘I love the part where…’ remarks in the YouTube comment section.
If not, let us explain: Basically the idea is YouTube commenters then come up with wildly and obviously untrue 'spoilers' about the new movie.

For example, when The Little Mermaid teaser dropped last year, there was no shortage of these.
Things like: 'Oh, I love the part where Ariel breaks into SeaWorld', or 'I love the part where Ariel hops on the back of a Harley-Davidson after being freed from the underground ocean world' spring to mind.
Another good one was: 'Or when Sebastian and Flounder give their rendition of Ricky Martin’s ‘Livin' la Vida Loca’.'
You get my point?
Well, the newest trailer for Peter Pan & Wendy is now getting the same treatment.
And, despite the clip dropping only two days ago, the comments have gone off like a frog in a sock and has garnered more than 4.3 million views.
One person wrote in the comment section: "I loved the part where Tinker Bell said ‘Peter Pan's costume is literal perfection', and then Wendy said 'It will be...once it fits a woman.'
“I cried, this was so stunning and brave.”
Another said: “I loved the part when Peter said, ‘It's Not About Money, It's About Sending A Message’ sent chills down my spine.”
A third remarked: “Loved the part where Wendy automatically knows how to fly a starship, fight off a Sith Lord and shows a highly experienced male 30 years her senior how it's done.'"
They continued: "YAAAAS QUEEN! So stunning! So brave!"
And, to be fair, we do love a stunning, brave queen.
Snaps for Wendy, babes.
While another said: “I loved the part when Wendy said 'I’ll never forgive you, you killed my father,’ and Hook said ‘No, Wendy. I am your father.’ Truly shed a lot of tears at that part.”
Honestly, it never gets old.
Peter Pan & Wendy is based on J.M. Barrie's classic tale of a boy who wouldn't grow up and recruits three young siblings to join him on a magical adventure to the enchanted Neverland island.
The film stars Alexander Molony as Peter Pan, Ever Anderson as Wendy and Jude Law as Captain Cook.
And the good news for fans is the wait for Peter Pan & Wendy won't be long, with the film set to drop on Disney+ on April 28.
