The trainer and one of the major characters of Summit Entertainment’s adaptation of the Divergent novel, Four is introduced and detailed a bit in this new featurette.
I have to admit, I don’t know a heck of a lot about Divergent other than what I’ve been seeing in TV commercials for the flick. From what I’ve been picking up lately from industry sites and word of mouth though, hype in the ‘young adult’ crowd is through the roof for this one.
All the basic themes of the age group appear here though, so I guess that really shouldn’t come as much of a surprise. The starring characters, both Four and Shailene Woodley’s Tris, are misfits who don’t fit into a streamlined and formal world of the future where everyone is slotted into a specific part of society by the makeup of their personality. For those who don’t fit into any one area, like our heroes, life is… difficult.
The official film adaptation of the hugely successful book series, Divergent is set to hit theaters on March 21st.
