Mr. Smee is the secondary antagonist of the 1991 live-action fantasy film Hook. He is Captain Hook's first mate.
He was portrayed by the late Bob Hoskins, who also portrayed Harold Shand in the Long Good Friday, Iago in the BBC 1981 television movie adaptation of Othello and Old Joe in the 2009 film adaptation of A Christmas Carol. Hoskins portrayed Mr. Smee again in Neverland (2011).
History[]
In the film, Mr. Smee devises the scheme to kidnap the children of Peter (who has now grown up) and make Hook like him more than Peter.
Smee and Hook's relationship takes on an almost intimate tone, at times even resembling an old married couple or a master/servant arrangement. Smee is allowed access to Hook's private quarters, is seen preparing meals for the captain and even helps him disrobe before bed. When Hook threatens suicide, he makes it obvious that he expects Smee to stop him, to which Smee replies "not again". Hook also confides all of his darkest and most personal thoughts and concerns to Smee, seemingly exclusively. When Hook admits (untruthfully) that he wants to die, Smee embraces the captain and kisses him on the cheek to dissuade him. He also convinces Hook that they should try to convince Peter's children, Jack and Maggie, to remain in Neverland permanently by using his repeated broken promises and prolonged absences as examples.
He assists in Hook's attempts to make Jack think he doesn't need Peter anymore through various activities together, such as breaking clocks and playing a game of baseball.
During the final battle, Smee steals Hook's personal treasure and flees after leaving him and Peter for their final duel. He is last shown as a custodian cleaning up beer bottles and trash when Peter wakes up in Kensington Gardens after returning from Neverland.
