Hart:For a $25 donation to Lionfish University the donor will recieve the very rare first draft screenplay of Hook! The Return of the Captain, by Jim V. Hart & Nick Castle. This draft was written before Spielberg's involvement or Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman. The script was developed for TriStar Pictures and was not on anyone's radar at the studio or in the industry when Jim and Nick wrote this draft. In fact every company on Hollywood had turned the project down when the head of TriStar did Nick Castle a favor and commisioned the script for a low fee. Nick and I spent the next year in Neverland and were left completely alone with no studio notes not even an executive overseeing the project. When we turned the script in, the new head of the studio read the script and immediately saw the tentpole blockbuster potential. Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman attached themselves immediately to the project and went to five directors at the same time giving them a weekend to read. One of them was Steven Spielberg.This is the draft of the script that attracted all the talent to the production.J.V. Hart is an acclaimed screenwriter and producer known for crafting imaginative and emotionally rich stories in Hollywood. He gained recognition for writing Hook (1991), Steven Spielberg’s beloved reimagining of Peter Pan, as well as Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992), directed by Francis Ford Coppola. His other notable works include Muppet Treasure Island (1996), Contact (1997), and Sahara (2005).  http://twitter.com/dreamingkingdomhttp://instagram.com/kingdomofdreamspodcasthttp://facebook.com/kingdomofdreamspodcast Watch the feature films that I have directedCitizen of Moria - https://rb.gy/azpsuIn Search of My Sister -  https://rb.gy/1ke21Official Website - www.jawadmir.com
