First Look At Shailene Woodley & Ansel Elgort In The Fault in Our Stars

January 10, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Fault-in-Our-Stars-pic1At a first glance it looks like Shailene Woodley is going a little bit tomboy for The Fault In Our Stars – but the short hair in the first image from the movie above is actually more to do with the fact that she’s playing a cancer patient. The guy she’s holding is. Ansel Elgort.

The movie follows Hazel Grace Lancaster (Woodley), a teenager who joins a support group after being diagnosed with cancer. Hazel begins to fall for another cancer-stricken teenager Augustus (Elgort) from her group. Sam Trammell and Laura Dern are playing Hazel’s father and mother, with Nat Wolff playing Isaac, Augustus’ best friend.

The film, directed by Josh Boone, is due out this summer. You can also take a look at the first poster below.

Shailene Woodley & Ansel Elgort Get Educated In A New Divergent Image

August 17, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

divergent-pic8
Summit is hoping that Divergent will be its young adult replacement for the Twilight franchise, and as they did with their earlier hit, they’re started the promotion early in the hope of getting fans of the novels excited. We’ve already had a few pics from the film, and now another one has shown up – although I’m hoping the whole movie isn’t quite as beige as this.

Neil Burger is directing the adaptation of Veronica Roth’s best-selling novel, which takes place in a dystopian future made up of five factions that are based on different personality types. As they come of age, everyone must join the faction they fit into, but certain people are ‘divergents’, showing traits from more than one group. Tris (Shailene Woodley) uncovers that these people are seen as dangerous and the government wants to get rid of them.

The other person in the pic is Ansel Elgort, who plays Tris brother, Caleb Prior. They both become part of the both part of the Abnegation faction, and this appears to be part of their selection of training.

The likes of Theo James, Kate Winslet, Miles Teller, Ashley Judd and Maggie Q co-star. It’ll be out next March.

True Blood’s Sam Trammell On For The Fault in Our Stars

August 15, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

sam-trammellBack in March Shailene Woodley signed on for the female lead in The Fault in Our Stars, and since then she’s been joined by Ansel Elgort. Now, with filming set to begin imminently, True Blood star Sam Trammell and Laura Dern have joined the cast of Fox’s movie, according the TheWrap.

The film is based on Josh Green’s novel about Hazel Green Lancaster (Shailene Woodley), a teenager stricken with cancer who falls in love with Augustus (Ansel Elgort), a young man from her support group. Sam Trammell is set to play Hazel’s father in the drama, with Laura Dern as the girl’s mother. Nat Wolff co-stars as Augustus’ best friend, Isaac.

Josh Boone (Stuck in Love) is directing from a screenplay by Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber ((500) Days of Summer, The Spectacular Now). Filming will begin this month in Pittsburgh.

Ansel Elgort Joins Shailene Woodley In The Fault in Our Stars

May 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Ansel-elgortAfter beating out the likes of Brenton Thwaites, Nat Wolff, Nick Robinson and Noah Silver for the role, Ansel Elgort has been chosen for the male lead in The Fault in Our Stars, according to Variety.

The movie will reteam Elgort with his Divergent co-star Shailene Woodley. Elgort will play Augustus ‘Gus’ Waters, a former basketball player who lost his leg to cancer and meets Woodley’s character in a cancer support group. The two unsurprisingly begin to fall for one another.

Josh Boone is on board to direct the adaptation based on John Green’s book, which shoots later this year.

Maggie Q, Zoe Kravitz & Ansel Elgort Will Be Divergent

March 12, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Maggie-QWith Twilight at an end, Summit Entertainment has lost its biggest franchise, but it’s hoping to have a similar amount of success with Divergent, based on the first in Veronica Roth’s planned young adult dystopian trilogy. Shailene Woodley has already signed on for the lead role, with Kate Winslet also up for the movie.

Now they’ve been joined by Maggie Q, Zoe Kravitz and Ansel Elgort according to THR.

Divergent, which has inevitably drawn comparisons to The Hunger Games, is about a 16-year-old girl named Beatrice ‘Tris’ Prior, who lives in a society divided into five factions, each based on a different virtue: honesty, selflessness, bravery, peacefulness, and intelligence. Beatrice must choose which faction she wants to try and join, and starts training in order to enter.

Newcomer Ansel Elgort will play Tris’ brother Caleb, who chooses a different faction from his sister and family. Although he’s older that Tris in the book, THR suggest that he’s her twin in the movie. Zoe Kravitz is set to be Christina, Tris’ new friend and fellow initiate. Maggie Q meanwhile is Tori, a tattoo artist who’s involved in testing Tris to determine which faction she’s most suited for.

It seems they’re still looking for the male lead of Four, despite having been searching for months. Neil Burger is set to direct, with shooting kicking off later this year.
