You’ve seen the first trailer for Divergent last month; now, the first official posters for the YA film adaptation have been released. The posters, which you can see in the gallery below, showcase the lead actors Shailene Woodley and Theo James surrounded by strong shadows. Very foreboding and dark, no? The focal points of the two posters are in the characters’ tattoos characterizing their divergency from the established factions in the futuristic Chicago they live in.
Are we ready for yet another Young Adult, dystopian film focused on class structures a la The Hunger Games (and Battle Royale before that)? With Shailene Woodley making Jennifer Lawrence-esque waves in Hollywood, I’d be willing to look past these formulaic YA fad just to see her showcase her range.
