It was reported last year that the fifth Underworld movie would focus on James's vampire character David, who was introduced in 2012's Underworld: Awakening. But James, who reprises his role as Four in this month's Insurgent, told Digital Spy that he is now unlikely to return for the sequel. "No, they have something in the works, but my involvement in it is... I think it's going be very difficult to do that with these [Divergent] movies, and my other commitments," James said.

How accurate is this article? The last tweet I re-tweeted was a Mr. James gif. doing the shaka and saying aloha. How foretelling.
On to the next. I've compiled a list on who could play David -
- Fredde Highmore, (I just listened to the Nerdist Writer's Panel podcast: Bates Motel episode 3/2/15)
- Thomas Howes
- Matt Barber
- Matthew Goode (I'm pitching every actor from Downton Abbey)
- Taron Egerton
- Colin O'Donoghue
- Alex O'Loughlin
- Richard Madden
- Norman Reedus
- Andrew Garfield
- Christian Madsen
- Matthew Lewis
- Orlando Bloom
- Keiynan Lonsdale
Why not this actor? Though he probably will not want to do it:
- Jamie Dornan
- Liam Hemsworth
- Taylor Kitsch
- Chiwetel Ejiofor
- Taylor Lautner
- Jai Courtney
- Tom Hiddleston
- Zac Efron (I would like to see him portray Yorrick Brown in Y: The Last Man.)
