With
a February start date line up, Tim Burton is going with a familiar face to lead
the away in his next pic.
Eva
Green is in negotiations to star in the Fox pic “Miss Peregrine’s Home for
Peculiar Children” which Burton will direct.
Based
on the Ransom Riggs’ novel about a teenager who finds himself transported to an
island where he must help protect a group of orphans with special powers from
creatures out to destroy them. Green would play the title character, who acts as
a guardian for these orphan
Chernin
Entertainment is producing the pic.
If
the deal closes, the film would be a step closer to giving Burton another
supernatural feature to tackle. Green and Burton had previously worked together
on “Dark Shadows” and Burton has always enjoyed reteaming with thesps he has
worked with in the past.
Green,
who is repped by UTA and Tavistock Wood Management, was last seen in “300: Rise
of an Empire” and can be seen next in Robert Rodriguez’s “Sin City: A Dame to
Kill For.”
She
has also stayed busy on the TV front with her Showtime show “Penny Dreadful,”
which was recently renewed for a second season.
