Theo Tuesday: Love Four, Theo James's Sexy Divergent Character? Watch This Video

The Divergent universe is about to expand, and we're not even talking about the currently filming sequel, Insurgent. Divergent author Veronica Roth is releasing her next book in the series, and it's not the sequel after Allegiant, but a new view of the world through the eyes of the character Four, named after him. As she told us in our interview with her, Roth chose to write about the Dauntless member so she could write a prequel, and she explains why she chose the character in this exclusive video. The other perk of watching? Lots and lots of footage of the man who plays the character in the movies: Theo James. Check out the video and also our exclusive quote from Four below, which comes out July 8!

News: Naomi Watts Joins 'Insurgent,' Two 'Allegiant' Films

The actress will follow up the "Divergent" sequel with Gus Van Sant's "Sea of Trees" opposite Matthew McConaughey.

Naomi Watts has signed on to join the next three films in Lionsgate's Divergent franchise.

The actress, who recently committed to star in Gus VanSant's Sea of Trees oppositeMatthew McConaughey, is joining the cast of Divergentsequel Insurgent as Evelyn, leader of the Factionless. Watts' deal calls for to co-star in the futuristic franchise's two final movies, which are based onVeronica Roth's YA novel Allegiant, the final book in the Divergent trilogy.

Watts will jump right toInsurgent, which began shooting last week in Atlanta.Shailene Woodley, Theo James, Ansel Elgort, Kate Winslet and Miles Teller -- who all appeared in Divergent -- return for the sequel. Watts joins Octavia Spencer as new additions to the cast. After Insurgent wraps in September, Watts will move on to Sea of Trees, which will take her through November. The in-demand actress is mulling a number of films after that.

Robert Schwentke, who replaced Divergenthelmer Neil Burger, is directing Insurgent from a screenplay written by Brian Duffield and Akiva Goldsman.

Red Wagon's Doug Wick and Lucy Fisher are producing alongside Pouya Shahbazian.

Insurgent puts Watts, who typically gravitates toward indie projects with auteurs, in the YA tentpole game. Divergent, which opened March 21, has earned $267 million worldwide. Still, she is no stranger to commercial films, having starred in Peter Jackson'sKing Kong and The Ring films. Watts has three films awaiting release: Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Birdman, The Weinstein Co.'s St. Vincent -- opposite Melissa McCarthy -- and Noah Baumbach's While We're Young.

Theo James Up For New Role Off Of ‘Divergent’ Fame

[Image Credit: Summit Entertainment]

Since the release of the box office hit Divergent, its star Theo James has broken out in a huge way. Whether it’s through a supposed romance with his co-star Shailene Woodley, or his affable charm during his press interviews, it looks like everyone is after the dashing international man.

All eyes are on James to see what career move he’ll take after a big box office hit, and it looks like the star is slowly making moves to see what’s out there aside from his Divergent franchise, which still has three more films to complete from the series.

Reports have emerged that Theo James is currently looking at another adaptation to attach himself to. Rebecca Fitzpatrick’s fictional best selling book “Hush Hush” is being turned into a film, and since Theo has already seen major success from the Divergent adaptation, why not go out for another one?

Theo James is currently up for the role of the fallen angel Patch Cipriano. The role which is described as “dark” is supposedly very iconic to the novel and a role fans of the book are heavily anticipating to see which lucky star will nab it. According to International Business Times there’s been a laundry list of hot actors slated to play Patch Cipriano and one of those people is Theo James.

“Hush Hush” the novel is about a girl named Nora Grey who falls in love with Patch, a fallen angel, who is seemingly everywhere she turns and also knows more about her than her closest friends. Even though she resists his allure she obviously can’t control how drawn to Patch she is.

If the Divergent actor gets scores the role he will most likely sign an option contract for three additional films, which would put the actor in two huge franchises. It may not be the best move career wise, but money wise it’s a smart decision to strike while the iron is hot.

There’s a question that Theo may not be available due to the rigorous shooting schedule of the Divergent franchise, but we figure if Jennifer Lawrence can manage two Oscar nominated films with the Hunger Games franchise, Theo may be able to juggle the Divergent franchise with this promising role.

Currently the actor is back on the Divergent set as he just started filming the second installment of the franchise called Insurgent. The film is already set to be released next year.

Veronica Roth wants you to figure out what 'Divergent' is all about

Four is more than “man candy,” says Veronica Roth

"Tris' voice is hard, direct straightforward and repetitive -- like a man's," author Veronica Roth said of the protagonist in her "Divergent" trilogy. She appeared Sunday at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books. (Anne Cusack / Los Angeles Times)

In between some rants and caveman talk, "Divergent" trilogy author Veronica Roth explained Sunday how she came up with the female protagonist of her dystopian coming-of-age novel.

Roth, 25, spoke at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books with Leigh Bardugo, whose books include "Shadow and Bone" and "Siege and Storm." Bardugo set the stage by explaining why young adult novels such as "Divergent" are such hits.

"That feeling never goes away of finding somewhere to belong," she said.

Borrowing from the five groups of people in Roth's books, here's a look at what Roth shared about her process, characters and message to young adult readers.

Amity (the peaceful): Four, the male partner-in-crime for Tris, was purposely well-balanced with the heroine.

"I didn't want one person's strength to require the sacrifice of the other," Roth said. "I think there can be two strong people but they have to be complicated people." 

"I think it's important to show he's a human being, not just man candy." - Veronica Roth on Four

In that same vein, Four isn't a typical male. He respects Tris, respects women, Roth said, toning herself in a caveman voice. "That's appealing," she said.

At the core of her series, Roth said, is a reversal of the typical character arcs of males and females. Traditionally, female characters keep things, such as family, together. Male characters go through a journey of becoming a fully formed adult. Instead, in "Divergent," Tris is becoming her "fully realized self."

Lionsgate To Split Final ‘Divergent’ Sequel ‘Allegiant’ Into Two Films To Cap Hit Sci-Fi Franchise

Lionsgate/Summit will adapt Veronica Roth‘s Divergent novel trilogy into a total of not three, but four films starring Shailene Woodley as the dystopian sci-fi heroine Beatrice “Tris” Prior, Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Co-Chairmen Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger revealed today. Following last month’s blockbuster hit Divergent and its planned 2015 sequel Insurgent, Allegiant – adapted from the third book in Roth’s bestselling YA book series – will be split into two separate films to conclude the franchise. Lionsgate had previously set Allegiant for a March 18, 2016 release. Allegiant Part 1 will keep that date, with Part 2 to follow on March 24, 2017. Both films will be produced separately.

Divergent has quickly made a box office star of Woodley, who will reprise her role in all three sequels as Tris, the 16-year-old girl who finds herself a target as one of few in her futuristic society who defy categorization into one of five personality-based factions. The first picture scored a $54.6M opening in March and has now racked up $117M domestic and $139M worldwide in three weeks of release. It’s still rolling out strong internationally and opens this weekend in France, Germany, Russia, Australia, Scandinavia, and other territories. Meanwhile sales of Roth’s novels have also enjoyed a bump from the film’s release, with boxed set and multi-book e-bundles jumping up 55 percent in sales last week and nearly 20 million copies sold worldwide.

Splitting Roth’s final novel into two films isn’t a left field move for Lionsgate. Similar thinking first paid off for the company in a big way with Twilight Saga-ender Breaking Dawn. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II took in $829M in worldwide grosses alone and extended Summit’s vampire romance franchise into five films from author Stephenie Meyer’s original four novels. Likewise, the upcoming Hunger Games finale Mockingjay will be released in two parts on November 21, 2014 and November 20, 2015, respectively, squeezing an extra installment out of the final book in novelist Suzanne Collins’ YA series. Together the two film franchises have already grossed over $5 billion worldwide for Lionsgate/Summit, with last year’s Hunger Games: Catching Fire becoming the 10th highest grossing film of all time.

“Veronica Roth brings her captivating story to a masterful conclusion in Allegiant, a rich, action-packed book with material that is ideally suited to two strong and fulfilling movies,” said Friedman and Wachsberger. “The storytelling arc and world of the characters lend themselves perfectly to two films, a storytelling strategy that has worked very well for us on the two Twilight Breaking Dawn films and about which we’re tremendously enthusiastic for the two upcoming Mockingjay films of The Hunger Games franchise.”

The question is, where will Lionsgate split Allegiant‘s story? Conspiracies within the world of Divergent unfold further in sequel Insurgent, which begins filming next month under helmer Robert Schwentke, directing from an Akiva Goldsman rewrite of Brian Duffield’s draft. He got the gig when Lionsgate fast-tracked the sequel for a March 20, 2015 date while helmer Neil Burger was still in post-production on the first pic. Third book Allegiant is told from the perspectives of both Tris and fellow initiate Four, played in Divergent‘s film adaptation by Theo James, as the characters enter a dangerous new world they no longer recognize and new truths are revealed about the past and future.

Ansel Elgort Talks 'Insurgent' and 'Allegiant' SPOILERS After 'Divergent' Movie 2014, Will Caleb Turn Evil?

(Photo : Facebook) Ansel Elgort talks Caleb's character change in upcoming sequels

"Divergent" actor Ansel Elgort has revealed that Caleb fans may be in for a rude awakening.

According to Bop and Tiger Beat, the 20-year-old actor inferred that although fans may have taken a liking to his character in "Divergent," they might feel different about him towards the end of the series.

"I like the fact that he's not a leading man, and that he's kind of an antagonist," Elgort said. "He's not the guy the audience will love the whole time. You might even hate him as the second and third movies-if we get to make them-come out, because Caleb has a real arc."

Theo Thursday

When the number one movie; Divergent has one of if not the hottest man on the planet right now in it, it only makes sense to have  Theo Thursday starting today.

I’ve been tossing the idea around to make him a staple of FANdemonium, and now it just seems like the best time.

If you are a fan of Downton Abbey you got your first glimpse of Theo when he played Kemal Pamuk in season one. He was dashing, charming and delightfully wicked. Destined to be a star in leaving us wanting more.

He romped around in other projects including Bedlam, The Inbetweeners before he helped lead Underworld: Awakening in 2012 along with Kate Beckinsale. Americans truly got to swooning when the very ‘New York’ sounding Theo graced the small screen weekly in the short lived tv drama Golden Boy. I never looked more forward to Friday nights and staying home and seeing our golden boy.

Now the world has taken notice of this amazing rising star, and I am sure we will see him in so much more in the years to come besides the amazing Divergent series as he brings Four to life. 

     

Video: Jai Courtney of Divergent

If you saw Divergent, then you saw Jai who plays Eric in the series, but who knew how hot the Australian actor was? Well we did, if you saw him in the action packed, 'A good Day to Die Hard' with Bruce Willis or even the hit tv series Spartacus.  Jai stopped by Jimmy Kimmel last week to of course talk about Divergent. Make sure you check out the two clips below. Pay close attention to part two close to the 3:25 mark to hear Jai's take on his fans and being legal {winks}

It's hard being a Fangirl

There are so many fandoms out there, with elitists, snobs or better yet passionate fangirls for lack of a better name for them, that for some reason or another, that feel the need to put down other fandoms or the fans that love them. We are all passionate about one thing or another and don’t want to back down from our convictions or loves, but we are all fans that is our common link and we often forget that.

Being a fan of something or someone gives us the most joy and helps links us in a special way. We all need to just get along and remember that. That is the basis of all fangirls. We love something or someone!

A lot of avid readers of Young Adult books that were older than 18, back in 2005 when Twilight was first published forget that there we not many if any books to captivate us and get older readers reading this genre. Twilight whether you like it or not, opened the door for other books and series that many of us are clamoring for and reading and making successful and seeing them now on the big screen.  The Vampire Diaries written by L.J. Smith was out way before Twilight  back in 1991 and didn't have much of a following until the success of The Twilight books and then they saw the potential and bam we have a hit series on our hands. Yet some hardcore TVD fans will look down their noses at Twilight fans like they are pariah. Without Twilight there would be no TVD on every week, so maybe just say thank you.

Divergent fans that have been fans of the series for a while are on the fence from what I have seen in tweets that their beloved series is now a hit movie and that they will have to share it with the rest of the world that is just catching on. Well, again, if it was for Twilight and Summit a lot of people would not have known about this series. While we Twilight fans were standing on line and waiting at Tent City, they handed out Divergent to all of us. So some Twilight fans found the book and fell in love with it because of Twilight.

Fans are fans people whether we find the books on our own before they become popular in the book community or if we find them after that have been cast and are about to hit the big screen we are fans!  The more the merrier. Yes if you follow the book all the way to the big screen, you can bitch and moan and complain when they didn't cast your fave, but when it all comes down to it the more people that fall in love with the book or the newly released movie the better chances of success and sequels. So don’t complain when people “jump on the bandwagon” some people are a little slower to find the books, TV Shows or movies, but it doesn't make them less of a fan.

I was late to the Twilight party and until this admission no one knew about it! I found the books by accident after the movie was cast and right before they started the promos all over the TV and in the malls near us. I am still and will forever call Twilight my love. I hold my head up high and proud when I speak of the books and the movies. After Twilight, I found The Vampire Diaries books, I couldn't get enough of vampires and the YA section. I was disappointed that the show changed from the books, but for those that never read the books or didn't know about them it doesn't matter, it’s a huge success and there is no going back. I watch the show religiously and I can’t even imagine it would have been so successful if they never strayed from the books. And having Ian and Paul as the leads sure doesn't hurt, but the point it I was a fan and was salivating for the show when they said it was happening. I am forever grateful that fans caught on to the books, and the show and it’s the success that it is. For the “true” TVD fans to snub fans that are or {gasps} used to be Twilight fans isn't right. We are all fans!

Yes Twilight vampires sparkle, and TVD ones, need a ring to mingle in society with no one getting suspicious, but authors have a different way of writing. It’s that simple. Doesn't mean one vampire group is better than the other. I love the Lynsay Sands Argeneau Vampire books (Not YA, but so wicked and worth finding and reading) I found them after Twilight when I was looking for something different to read and stay true to my love of vampires. She took it to an entire different level and blows me away. I tweet, and blog about them any chance I get. I would love for more people to find her books and read them. The more fans the better.

We are all passionate about our loves whether they are books, TV shows, or movies. There is always room for more fans. It’s ok to love them and welcome and sometimes explain why a book is maybe better than a movie, and maybe get that person to now read the book. Maybe then the popularity would increase and that author would get more fans and maybe just maybe we could get more books or movies.

It’s OK to be a fangirl for more than one thing, it doesn't make you less of a fan, it makes you diverse and human.

What makes you a fangirl? What books, TV show or movies are you passionate about and would like to share with us. We would love to hear from you. 

'Divergent' author, star talk sweet marshmallows and not-so-sweet character

"Divergent" author Veronica Roth keeps her promises. She once told readers of her blog that when she found success and landed a book deal, she would jump into a pool of mini-marshmallows. And that's just what she did.

Well, close enough. In a video she shared on her blog (below), Roth actually decided to just hop into a bathtub of mini-marshmallows instead.
