Vanilla Ice Is Captain Hook, Hook Baby!

The good news: Vanilla Ice will be playing Captain Hook in an upcoming theatrical production of Peter Pan.

The bad news: Those of us who don’t live in England will have to start saving up for plane tickets.

That’s right, folks! Vanilla Ice will be starring as Peter Pan’s nemesis in an upcoming stage adaptation of J.M. Barrie’s play, which will start playing in England this December.

But it gets even weirder….the production will be completely in pantomime!

How wild is that? Here’s what the theater manager for the production had to say about it:

“(He) has never performed in a pantomime before, but I am sure that he will go down as a hit.”

Crazy! We’re very curious to see Ice’s acting/pantomiming skillz!

Go ninja Vanilla, go Vanilla, go!
