Ashley Judd is set to star in Summit Entertainment’s Divergent, a Neil Burger (Limitless) directed adaptation of Veronica Roth’s debut novel of the same name, the first in a young-adult trilogy about a dystopian future in which people are divided into a caste system based on their personality traits.
Heatvision reports that Judd will play the mother of a young woman who doesn’t belong to any group and is out to end the war among the people. The film also stars Kate Winslet, Aaron Eckhart, Theo James, Ray Stevenson, Tony Goldwyn, Zoe Kravitz, Maggie Q and Shailene Woodley as Judd’s daughter.
Judd’s genre creds include William Friedkin’s junkie thriller Bug and the serial killer dramas Twisted, Eye of the Beholder and Kiss the Girls, an adaptation of James Patterson’s Alex Cross crime novel. She’ll always be remembered, however, for flashing her wynonna at the 1998 Oscars.
