None Of The Lost Boys Actors Knew Who Robin Williams Would Pass His Sword ToĪfter Dustin Hoffman’s Captain Hook has been defeated, and it is time for Peter Banning to leave Neverland with his son and daughter, he does not fly away without naming one of the Lost Boys as the new leader, after having lost Rufio in the fight. Of course, that would not even be the most exciting moment Hammond and Willliams shared on the set. Those Lost Boys, especially Raushan Hammond, were certainly lucky have him as their Peter Pan.

While Robin Williams’ famously childish and manic comedic energy was part of what got him the lead role in Hook in the first place, this is one of the few off-screen moments in which I would have loved to see him embracing his grown-up side. And when he would do that all the kids would stop because they were so shocked that the 10-year-old child in him would stop for a minute or two. Why would you act like this?' It was really surprising because we always saw Robin Williams always joking, always laughing, always doing the craziest things. Like, 'What are you doing? We're on a set, this is a major film. And Robin Williams would see this going on in-between shots and he would come over, like he was my dad, and he would turn the other kids straight.

There were a couple of times on the set of the movie where some kids would literally try to rough me up on the set. Raushan Hammond, who played Thud Butt, was being interviewed for Uproxx’s 25th anniversary retrospective, and shared the following heartwarming moment from the set: While he was the one initially being given a hard time by the Lost Boys onscreen, Robin Williams was actually the one coming to the aid of a young member of the Hook cast who was not being treated so well by his co-stars.
