"All will be well," author Ransom Riggs promises worried fans of his novel "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children." The book is turning into a movie, courtesy of director Tim Burton, who seems like the perfect choice for the fantastical story. However, when the first photos from the film were released by Entertainment Weekly and Empire Magazine, fans couldn't help noticing some major changes.
For example, why is Emma (Ella Purnell) shown wearing lead shoes?

So! Eagle-eyed fans are noticing that Tim changed some things in the film. While the book and film won't be identical (& they rarely are)...

... I totally trust Tim's vision. There's no filmmaker in the world better suited to adapt this book. All will be well!

@ransomriggs pls tell me the reason they've aged Olive & swapped Emma & Olive's powers isn't to make a love triangle situation with Jacob

Head to EW and Empire for more photos, including great shots of Eva Green as the title character, and Dame Judi Dench as Miss Avocet. The movie is scheduled to open September 30.
Are you disappointed about the changes, or will you stay in wait-and-see mode?
