James appreciates being given the role of Four in the “Divergent” movie series because it certainly gave him the name and fame.
However, he does not want to be typecast in the role because he wants to be known as a well-rounded actor and that he could only do so if he will be able to prove himself beyond the “Divergent” movie series.
James actually started his acting career with “A Passionate Woman,” where he starred opposite Billie Piper. He has taken on other film acting assignments including “Bedlam,” “Golden Boy” and “Underworld: Awakening.”
In a recent interview, Theo said that when an actor is working in a film franchise, things are very different because the world sees him as that character only. He added that he thinks being recognized for “Divergent” series alone will affect his career in the long term. He said that he is the type of person who likes doing things differently and wacky too.
Both Theo and Shailene only have good words for each other because they apparently gave justice to their roles in the film.
While previous reports indicate of an unfortunate ending because Shailene’s Tris character would die in the end, book author Veronica Roth has publicly come out to explain the huge changes and differences between the novel and the movie.
