About the film

Directed by Neil Burger and released March 21, 2014, Divergent adapts the first book closely — Choosing Day, the Dauntless initiation trials, Tris and Four’s relationship, and the simulation-serum attack that kills Tris’s parents and sets up the sequel.

The film grossed over $288 million worldwide against a $85 million budget, launching the franchise and cementing Shailene Woodley and Theo James as Tris and Four.
