Veronica Roth has confirmed that Theo James has been cast as Four in the movie adaptation of the novel Divergent. Theo James was last spotted in Underworld: Awakening.


She also added in her website, "Recently I saw Theo James’ screen test with Shailene Woodley, and I was sure within seconds: this was ‘Four,’ no question. Theo is able to capture ‘Four’s’ authority and strength, as well as his depth and sensitivity. He is a perfect match for Shailene’s incredibly strong presence as Tris. I’m thrilled!"

Many girls out there are certainly in for the decision so we may expect another Twilight Saga in the repeat.

Director Josh Boone has confided with Entertainment Weekly the following:

During our exhaustive search to find Hazel Grace Lancaster, I saw some stunning auditions by today’s finest young actresses. Over 250 girls read for the part, but it wasn’t until Shailene stepped in front of the camera that I truly saw Hazel for the first time. It was like lightning striking. I can’t wait for the rest of the world to see what I have.

Now that everything's in order we might expect, or not, how these actors will fare in the movie adaptation of some of your favorite books.
