Divergent hits theaters March 21, 2014, and last night at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards we got our first teaser trailer for the anticipated film. This movie has been called "the next Hunger Games," due mostly to the similarities between the stories but also because of Divergent's leading starlet, Shailene Woodley. The young actress is being compared to Jennifer Lawrence already, and we all know that that is a very good thing. Kate Winslet, Maggie Q, Theo James, Ansel Elgort, Miles Teller, Zoe Kravitz, Jai Courtney, Mekhi Pfeiffer, and Ashley Judd also star.

Here is a synopsis of Divergent:

"Based on Veronica Roth's #1 New York Times best-selling novel, DIVERGENT is a gripping action thriller set in a futuristic world where society has been divided into five factions. As each person approaches adulthood, he or she must choose a faction and commit to it for the rest of their life. Tris Prior (Shailene Woodley) chooses Dauntless-the daring risk-takers who pursue bravery above all else. During the Dauntless initiation, Tris completes death-defying stunts and faces her inmost fears in spectacular simulations. When she discovers she is a Divergent, someone who will never be able to fit into just one faction, she is warned that she must conceal this secret or risk her life. As Tris uncovers a looming war which threatens her family and the life of the mysterious Dauntless leader whom she has come to love, Tris must face her greatest test yet-deciding whether revealing she is a Divergent will save her world-or destroy it."
