At last update, four actors (Lucas Till, Luke Bracey, Brenton Thwaites and Jack Reynor) were being tested for the role Tobias "Four" Eaton in Neil Berger's book-to-screen adaptation of Veronica Roth's Divergent. Now, it looks like the studio is giving two more guys a shot at the role.
According to Variety, Till will join Alex Pettyfer and Jeremy Irvine for a second test for the role this week.
Till, who recently starred in X-Men: First Class, is the only holdover from the first batch, but Variety reports that he may be disadvantaged by being so tied up with other film commitments this year to ultimately snag it.
Pettyfer, of course, starred in I Am Number Four (appropriately?) and Magic Mike and has long been expected to be on the cusp of the big time, given the right property.
Irvine, meanwhile, is known for just one film - War Horse - though he's got several book adaptations on the way himself (Now Is Good, Great Expectations, e.g.).
Photos of all three are attached in the slideshow.
