'The Fault in Our Stars' trailer: A deep dive
The story focuses on two teenagers with cancer who fall in love after meeting at a cancer support group.The pic bows on June 6 and while it doesn’t have the components of a normal popcorn summer pic, it should play as good counter-programing. Film will also benefit from Woodley’s momentum following her starring role in another popular YA novel, “Divergent.”
'The Fault in Our Stars' trailer: A deep dive;Pic also stars Ansel Elgort with Josh Boone directing.
One might expect those kind of over-the-top reactions from fans when the first look at a superhero or other likely summer blockbuster debuts. (I mean, we all remember where we were when we first saw Heath Ledger as the Joker, right?) But today was a different kind of big summer movie: Fans got the first full-length trailer for the movie adaptation of the beloved YA book The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.
Starring About-To-Be-It-Girl Shailene Woodley as well as I’m-Also-In-Divergent Ansel Elgort, the tearjerker features the duo as a couple of teens who meet in a cancer support group. While Hazel resists their relationship in fear of eventually hurting him with her death, he persists and their ensuing adventure of love and life resonated with readers of all ages. (The book is currently number one on Amazon’s bestseller list.) While the sarcastic humor and edge of the novel is one of the main reasons people have latched on so strongly to it (Read: This isn’t A Walk To Remember), the plot is quite heavy – so it was no surprise there were quite a few feelings over the 2:30 clip released this afternoon.
Let’s break it down (Light spoilers follow. Read the book. Just do it.)
