The Cast

Aside from Emma who has the power to create fire using only her hands, Olive (Lauren McCrostie) is also a part of Miss Peregrine's loop. She can fly so high that she needed to wear a specialized heave shoe to be grounded. Furthermore, Bronwyn (Pixie Davis) is incredibly strong that she can carry anything heavy with her bare hands. There's also Millar (Cameron King) who can go invisible and the twins who have the ability to do mental telepathy. The twins are Thomas and Joseph Odwell.

The movie will also include Chris O'Dowd who will play the role of Franklin Portman. Rupert Everett is also included as well as Miss Avocet who is portrayed by Judi Dench. Samuel L. Jackson plays the character Barron.

In this normal world, there is a different dimension full of these unique children whose ages stop when they enter the loop of a certain year from the past. Jacob is from the present who happens to be peculiar himself. Jacob has the ability to feel Hollows nearby and the only one who can see these monsters. His journey will be challenging and once he goes inside the loop of Miss Peregrine, he acquires the dilemma of keeping them safe from the monsters. Thus, he does not return to his present time and he stays in the loop with the others to fight the enemies who wanted to invade each loop that these peculiar children are in.

"Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" will be in theaters on September 30, 2016.
