He started off the announcement by reminding fans that Christopher Walken would be playing Captain Hook and then moved on to inform viewers that the Girls actress (who, yes, is his daughter!) would be playing Peter. He kept a super straight face and then delightfully added in a gem of a sentence, along with a flashback pic of toddler Allison dressed up as Peter Pan.
