French actress Eva Green poses for the talented duo photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott for the August 2016 cover story of W Magazine. Eva looks stunning in gothic looks selected by the stylist Edward Enninful. Inside the magazine she talks about playing a Bond girl in “Casino Royale,” a medium in “Penny Dreadful,” and about her character in Tim Burton’s new movie “Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children.”
Miss Peregrine’s Home… is based on the best-selling young adult novel by Ransom Riggs. The peculiar children all have special talents—for instance, one can control fire, another has incredible physical strength. “People want the kids to have superpowers, but these are kids who have afflictions,” Burton said. “That’s why I loved the book. These kids feel different rather than ‘super,’ and the movie speaks to that difference.”
“You know, Mary Poppins is fucking weird,” Burton said. “And Miss Peregrine is the weirdest version of that weird character. There was only one person I could see in that role.”
