A Deep Dive into the History & Making of Steven Spielberg's "Hook" and how it came to be. From its origins as an abandoned Steven Spielberg follow up to Temple of Doom, to how it was almost made by an entirely different director, and its troubled reception upon release. Featuring rarely seen promotional & behind the scenes material from the Making of Hook.
A very, very special thanks to the creator of Hook-Movie.com, for helping me out with various aspects of research and providing many of the Hook BTS clips. Check out his sites for even more fascinating history!
