The Sexy, Important Reasons Theo James Is Your Favorite Part of the Divergent Series

Everett Collection

Even though the future of the Divergent series may be up in the air, we still have a lot of excitement for the franchise, which can be described in two words: Theo James. Sure, sure, sure, we want to see where the story goes, but let's be real: we are all about Divergent because of the very sexy Theo James. He plays Tris's devoted love interest and all-around ass-kicker Four, the breakout role James needed to land him in our hearts (and if this was the '90s and we were in middle school, on our walls). Here are all the ways James has become our favorite part of the Divergent franchise.

01
02

He's a Dauntless leader.

03

It's the badass faction.

04

So basically he's the leader of the badasses.

05

He's the first person Tris meets.

06

He's kind of rude to her at first, actually.

07

Which equals sexual tension out the wazoo.

08

Yeah, I said wazoo. What's up?

09

But then he starts to soften toward her . . .

10

And grab her butt and stuff.

11

Then things get real sexy.

12

He means his tattoos, obviously.

Perv.

13

He's got all these things he wants to be.

14

He's already hot, at least.

15

So they become, like, the badass couple.

16

In leather and stuff.

17

It's all four you, buddy.

18

He's soft but tough.

19
20
21

Yes, sexy even when he's possessed.

22
23

In Insurgent, Four continues the hotness.

With heavy artillery.

24

And shirtless makeouts . . .

25

He's a take-charge man but an equal partner to his lady.

26

She's really in charge here, after all.

27
28

Oh, those eyes.
