'Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children' Serves Up A First Teaser For Loop Day
In honor of Loop Day, 20th Century Fox has revealed the first teaser for Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, the next film by Tim Burton. What is Loop Day? Hit the jump to watch the Miss Peregrines Loop Day teaser and find out.
Fox shared the Miss Peregrines Loop Day teaser on YouTube. In the story, Miss Peregrine's home is located in a September 3, 1940 time loop. Every day, the clocks reset just before her island home is bombed by German forces. Yesterday was September 3, hence the Loop Day-themed teaser. (That Loop Day also gives Fox the chance to start marketing its movie six months before release is just a happy coincidence.)
