The trailer has been released for Finn Wolfhard's new horror film, The Turning, which is a modern take on Henry James' 1898 novella The Turn of the Screw.
Wolfhard, 16, takes on the role of an orphan called Miles who lives in a mansion under the care of newly employed Kate - played by Mackenzie Davis (Black Mirror) - with his sister Flora (Brooklynn Prince).
In Wolfhard's first major role since starring in Stranger Things and It, Miles is described as a 'special' child. Shortly afterwards he stamps on a fish, saying: "Nothing should have to suffer." Hand yer notice in, Kate.
