Initiates rejoice! After years of praise for the best-selling trilogy and months of intense hype over the subsequent on-screen adaptation, the full trailer for the film Divergent has finally been released!
Divergent is a popular young adult dystopian trilogy written by Veronica Roth. Often compared to The Hunger Games, another dark young adult series, the novel is set in a world where people are divided into five factions, each representing a different virtue. Protagonist Tris Prior has a secret. She is “divergent,” an anomaly who doesn’t fit into a single category. This secret makes her a threat to the government and puts her life in danger. At the same time, hidden tensions between the factions threaten to rip apart the very threads of society.
“The future belongs to those who know where they belong,” says antagonist faction leader Jeanine Matthews, played by Kate Winslet, in the trailer.
For fans of the books, the trailer does not disappoint. The audience gets their first look at Shailene Woodley (The Spectacular Now) as Tris. There seems to be plenty of action, from physical fights to troops on the verge of war. At the same time, the chemistry between Tris and her trainer Four, played by Theo James (The Inbetweeners Movie), is evident and viewers can definitely look forward to some romance.
From the book, one might recognize Four’s tattoos, knife throwing and of course, the unforgettable Ferris wheel scene. Check out the trailer below:
Directed by Neil Burger, the movie is scheduled for release on March 21st, 2014.
