News Watch James Franco Parody Christopher Walken's Captain Hook in Peter Pan Live! Spoof on "SNL" (Video) The Dec. 6 episode of "Saturday Night Live" parodied NBC's special event Peter Pan Live!

Featuring Cicely Strong as Peter Pan and Aidy Bryant as Tonkerbell, Tinkerbell's half-sister, the skit also featured "SNL" host James Franco as Captain Hook.

Franco, who made his Broadway debut in 2014's Of Mice and Men, mimicked Christopher Walken, who played Hook in the Dec. 4 live event, by speaking in Walken's trademark cadence and offering a brief song satirizing Walken's tap-dance number "Vengeance."
