Christopher Walken's Captain Hook costume and more from Peter Pan Live on display...

Following the success of The Sound of Music Live! in 2013, NBC followed up with the musical spectacular Peter Pan Live! in December 2014. Allison Williams was the titular flying boy who never grew up and Christopher Walken played his infamous pirate nemesis, 'Captain Hook'. Here's a look at the familiar costume he wore in the villainous role, plus more models and props from the special TV event.

I actually thought that this flamboyant costume and detailed miniature pirate ship featured in the one-off live show were the highlight of the NBC Universal Experience archive exhibit at Universal Studios Hollywood on May 8, 2015.

On this occasion, Catherine Zuber was the the Costume Designer responsible for bringing the look of J. M. Barrie's literary characters to life.

If you're a fan of pirates, then you should also check out this much larger Black Pearl miniature ship and this HMS Endeavour ship, plus more original costumes and props from Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean movies on display at various exhibitions in recent years.

Plus fans of Steven Spielberg's 1991 Peter Pan movie, should also check out this fun bowling ball Lost Boy prop from Hook on display at the Planet Hollywood Cafe in Las Vegas.
