As young-adult films often focus on contests and matters of life and death turned into sporting events, it's fitting that ‘Divergent' -- which stars Shailene Woodley, Kate Winslet, and future Kyle Reese, Jai Courtney -- released an extended Winter Olympics trailer.
Stars Shailene Woodley and Theo James hit up 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' last night to premiere the final 'Divergent' trailer, which whittles down this complicated sci-fi world into the main plot points -- society is divided up into factions, one breaks from the mold, the government doesn't like that so much.
The business of adapting bestselling young-adult books into movies can result in untold riches (see 'The Hunger Games' and 'Harry Potter') or it can result in something instantly and completely forgettable (does anyone remember 'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones'?). The upcoming adaptation of Veronica Roth's novel is certainly hoping for the former, and unlike so much of the competition, the new 'Divergent' trailer makes it look like the film may have the pedigree to pull it off.
Summit Entertainment and Yahoo Movies have revealed the first 'Divergent' posters, featuring the two lead stars, Shailene Woodley as Tris and Theo James as Four, and this film more than ever seems like young-adult-film gold.
Tonight at MTV's VMAs (how do they even have video music awards when they don't play music videos?), the first full trailer for Summit's hot new young adult adaptation 'Divergent' made its debut. The film, starring Shailene Woodley and Miles Teller (both of recent indie 'The Spectacular Now') looks to breathe new life into the genre, much like its predecessor, 'The Hunger Games.' Is this the start of a new franchise? Summit sure hopes so, and this trailer has us hopeful, too.
With Comic-Con 2013 officially in full swing, news about some of the most anticipated films on the horizon has stopped trickling and started gushing. You may have already read our comprehensive report of what went down at the panel for 'Divergent,' but now you can get a little taste of what everyone who was in attendance actually got to see! A new batch of stills from the hotly anticipated adaptation of the popular young adult series has arrived, giving us a new look at stars Shailene Woodley, Kate Winslet and more!
