Jeremy Sumpter and Rachel Hurd-Wood, stars of the 2003 adaptation of ‘Peter Pan’, staged an unexpected reunion yesterday.

And the venue couldn’t have been more fairytale either… Disneyland.

The ‘Friday Night Lights’ star, who was 14 when he played the role of the boy who never grew up in the movie, took to Instagram to post a picture with his former teen star.

“My little Rach,” he captioned. “Reunited at dinneyland #blessed #happy #newadventures.”

Though the movie, directed by Australian helmsman P.J. Hogan, received decent reviews (Roger Ebert gave it three-and-a-half stars out of four), it was a disastrous flop at the box office – it cost $130 million to make, and made back just $122 million.

The production’s dreams were largely shattered by the overwhelming dominance of ‘Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King’, which was released just the week before.

With Sumpter as Pan and Hurd-Wood taking up the role of Wendy Darling, it also starred ‘Harry Potter’ star Jason Isaacs in the dual roles of George Darling and Captain Hook.

Elsewhere, Richard Briars played Mr Smee, while Lynn Redgrave played the Darling children’s Aunt Millicent.
