Theo James to play Patch?


http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/548773/20140420/hush-theo-james-divergent-star-play-role.htm

I read this book and it was pretty lame, so Im hoping this isn't true.

I doubt this is happening. Would Theo jump from one YA based film to another?

I would rather believe the news that he is in negotiations for a role in "The Most Wonderful Life," with the likes of Alan Arkin, Diane Keaton, Annette Bening and Amanda Seyfried also in talks to join the cast.

I hope not...Hush Hush was poorly written. His name is big right now, so hopefully he can get on with a nice project.

From the wrap article, I found out that his talent agency is WME (Endeavor Agency), same rep as fellow Brit star, Robert Pattinson. He's in good hands, but it is up to him to choose wisely the projects presented to him.

I will be believe this only when it comes from respectable news sources such as Variety or Deadline. I expect all the tabloids will publish it.

reply

Could just be the rumor mill, I hope so LOL

reply

No... No way, for many reasons. First of all, with Divergent being as successful as it ended up being, he would not be able to sign onto another franchise. Also, I don't think Theo would be interested in playing Patch, because as far as that series goes, it was awful. The romance was almost worse than Twilight in my opinion.

I agree, I was shocked to hear his name rumored for the role. I was like...NOOOO!
