First up: timed to release with the first big screen adaptation of her most beloved book, “Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret,” the warm and lovely documentary “Judy Blume Forever” premiered last week on Prime Video. Directed by Davina Pardo and Leah Wolchok, the film tells the life story of beloved author Judy Blume, and underlines the radical and influential nature of her writing about the intimate inner lives of girls and women, and how she continues to touch readers with her work.
David Lowery’s “Peter Pan & Wendy” premieres Friday on Disney+. The new take on the beloved children’s book by J.M. Barrie is a live-action remake of the Disney animated feature, with Ever Anderson as Wendy, and Jude Law as Captain Hook. Yara Shahidi co-stars as Tinkerbell, with Jim Gaffigan as Smee in this dark and lyrical take on the well-known adventures of Never Never Land.
