What is the point if Rogers isn't the Hook we've known for years? I don't get it. And why exactly would it have made more sense to create another entirely new character?

Wish Hook is no different from Cindy, Tremaine, Drizzle, Alice, Tiana, etc. -- he's a brand new main character for the requel. But by going with Wish Hook instead of Captain Jack Sparrow from the New Enchanted Forest played by Zelda Williams, they got to keep a talented, fan-favorite actor who loves the show instead of having to cast a brand new one and get the audience to love them and the new character.
