If there was a problem with copywrite then they would not be able to use ANY of the characters, so I don't see how using Peter Pan would be a problem  when they've used almost everyone else.

'''Not true. The majority of the characters on the show are in the free domain, but the characters from Peter Pan are not. That copyright is owned by a hospital in London, and Disney does indeed need to seek permission to use them. They got it for their animated movies, and even for Kingdom Hearts. That being said, however, I doubt they'd have trouble getting permission if they wanted it, but they probably don't want it, given the statement that we wouldn't be seeing Pan this season. (Unless they changed their minds. But if Nealfire is Pan, I don't think that would count if we never see him as a teen.)'''
