Alex Pettyfer played the lead in "I am Number Four" and is usually the dream cast of all fan girls as lead in almost all YA books to films adaptions including Peeta in "The Hunger Games" and Jace in "The Mortal Instruments." But, he wasn't able to have those roles, some says that he turned them down. Yes, he definitely have the looks but a lot have been complaining about his attitude recently including his feud with Magic Mike co-star Channing Tatum.

Jeremy Irvine played the lead in War Horse and Lucas Till played Havoc in X-Men: First Class.

Actors Who Are Considered to Play Four in Divergent Movie

Deadline has reported that there are four potential actors who are vying for the role of Four or Tobias Eaton in the film adaptation of Veronica Roth's novel entitled "Divergent." No, Alexander Ludwig is not one of them. You should bear this in mind that this is all rumors and not official. Anyway, Deadline says that the actors who are rumored to play Four include Lucas Till, Luke Bracey, Jack Reynor, and Brenton Thwaites. Accordingly, these four actors have had their chemistry reading with Shailene Woodley, who will play Tris, last November 14, 2012. 

Lucas Till might be the most recognized among the four because of his involvement in quite popular films like the X-men: First Class as Havoc. Other than that, Lucas might be a familiar face in different fandoms, particularly The Hunger Games (THG) and The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (TMI: COB). It was reported before that Lucas had auditioned for the role of Peeta Mellark in THG and Jace Wayland in TMI: COB but he wasn't able to get any of those career-rising roles. Would this be Lucas' time to burst up his career?

On the other hand, Australian actor Luke Bracey was in Monte Carlo with Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester, and Kate Cassidy. He was also part of the Australian soap opera Home and Away.
