Director Tim Burton was reportedly rushed to hospital after being injured on the set of his latest movie Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiars.

The 56-year-old Beetlejuice director, who is currently filming in Blackpool, injured himself on Monday night while taking a break from shooting and was quickly rushed to A&E.

According to The Sun, Burton was taken straight to the Victoria Hospital, where his assistant is said to have requested a private area be sectioned off for the star.

His publicist said: "Tim attended hospital with a minor injury, no breakages."

Based on the best-selling children's novel of the same name, Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiars, is slated for release in 2016.
