As promised! :)
Ok, so for the past few days, the Divergent fandom has been talking about the recent casting updates. But what shocked almost all of us the most is the casting of our most awaited character, Tobias "Four" Eaton.
As we all know by now, Theo James (another British actor ;D) is chosen to play the part.
Different reactions blasted and exploded the virtual world. Of course, there's a lot of hate (palm on face) and disapproval from some fans, saying: "He's too old!" "He's not handsome/hot enough" (seriously, what's wrong with them???) and the likes.
But, I'm no different. XD
At first!
To be honest, my first reaction upon seeing the post was SHOCK. Real shock.
I don't know the guy.
And the picture they posted...

...urgh...
I even commented, "WHAT?????????"
But that is pure shock.
I really like Four and it can't be helped that, somehow, I have my own "imagination" of him (just like the others).
So the next thing I did (actually, series of things):
I started Google-ing the name. Theo James. He's new. Few film career background. Hmm..
Image. Yeah, he kinda look old... Oh, he looked good in there!
It's kind of their fault for using a not-so-attractive photo of him in the poster.
Looked for his FB fan page. Found one! I'm 6,788th liker. XD
Oh! Someone posted a video. It's Four singing!
Can't find the video they posted but here's one that I also like to listen to, like, everyday ever since. XD
He's got a wonderful voice. Plus points!
He's now in Bello Magazine.

Now look at THAT! :)
Finally, I ended up defending him against haters. I'm not on war, I just try to kind of change their minds. Give him a chance, people!
On the other side, it's great that a lot of people are openly accepting him, especially that he's Veronica Roth approved! :)
I just wish they would release their screen test (Theo and Shaillene) so we know what to expect.
UNLESS, they want us to keep hanging (onto the bar in the chasm!)
