Facebook Fandom Spotlight: Divergent

Posted on by

The popular book Divergent came to the screen this past weekend, launching the latest YA novel to movie adaptation. The movie did well, opening up in first place and a $56 million opening. It’s reported that the audience was heavy female, with their making up 69% of the audience.

For this week’s Facebook Fandom, I decided to see how that percentage compares to the Facebook likes for the series. For this, I broke down the various terms, grouped them together, and also added in the two stars of the film.

Overall, these stats show 78.72% female, with fans of the film and book skewering a bit higher. 50% of the audience had read the book, and without seeing how that broke down, it’d be hard to determine differences for these stats. It’s possible some of those men were there as dates, so skewed the percentage a bit.

Below are the raw stats and percentages.

Welcome to Bedlam Heights, the stylish new apartment building, has sexy tenants and gorgeous decor. But little do the new residents suspect that behind the luxury fittings lay unimaginable horrors. This is a place tainted by abuse, suffering and death – and the ghosts of its dark and violent past are out for revenge. As the direct descendent of those who ran the asylum, Kate (Charlotte Salt, The Tudors) – who both lives and works there – is a prime target. She is surprised by the unexpected arrival of Jed (James) – her adopted cousin. Jed is unique. With a history of mental illness, he’s a troubled man who sees ghosts and visions of the past. Recent messages to ‘Save Kate,’ propel him back into Kate’s life. Can he really ‘Save Kate?’ And from whom, or what, does she need saving? Everybody has a dark side in this new series also starring Ashley Madekwe (Secret Diary of a Call Girl), Hugo Speer (Skins) and Will Young (Pop Idol winner, Skins).  Bedlam premieres Saturday, October 8, 9:00pm ET/PT on BBC AMERICA’s Supernatural Saturdays.
