By Ashley Lee, The Hollywood Reporter
“Because our abilities don’t fit in the outside world, we live in places like this.”
Eva Green is a master of misfits in the first trailer for Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.
The actress reunites with her Dark Shadows director Tim Burton to play the titular headmistress of the orphanage full of those with “peculiarities,” such as being invisible and eating through the back of one’s head, to name a few.
