In the movie, the star was the entrance to Neverland, a place where no one grows up. It is the home of Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, Captain Hook and his crew, the Indians, Mermaids, and Tinker Bell. Peter agrees to take Wendy Darling and her two younger brothers, Michael and John, with him to Never Land so Wendy does not have to grow up.
The star appears again in the 2002 Disney sequel. When Captain Hook and his crew come to London and kidnap Jane, Wendy's daughter, they take her to Never Land. As the pirate ship reaches the Second Star, a vortex appears and they reach the island.
The Second Star to the Right reappears in the special "Battle for the Book". After Captain Hook journeys through the star to London and steals Wendy's book of Never Land. Hook and his crew couldn't locate the star through a fog bank. As John and Michael try to figure out what to do, Wendy decides to contact Peter Pan to help them via a song that can alert Peter that she needs his help. Peter busy dealing with a sea monster that is threatening Queen Coralie, Marina, and Stormy at Mermaid Lagoon. When Tinker Bell arrives to tell him of Wendy's call for help, unable to answer it since he's busy with the sea monster, Peter assigns Tinker Bell to contact Jake and his crew, giving her his hat so he can speak to them through it to tell them what to do. When Tinker Bell finds Jake and his mateys, Peter explains the situation to them, and they set off on Bucky to head to London, being amazed by the sight of the British capital as they arrive to locate the Darling house. By the time Jake, Wendy, and the others catch up to Hook, he's able to convince the officer that Wendy, Jake, and the kids are the bad guys, allowing him and his crew to escape back to the Jolly Roger as the fog clears so they can return to Never Land with Wendy's Book. Jake, Wendy, and the rest of the gang try to convince the officer of the truth, but it's not until he sees Tinker Bell himself does he realize he's been tricked and lets the kids go to pursue Hook through The Second Star to the Right back to Never Land. The star is also mentioned again in the song Never Land Ahoy as Jake and his crew accompanied by the Darling siblings return to Never Land to rescue Wendy's storybook from Captain Hook.
