Rue finally gets the revolution she deserves. 

The Hunger Games breakout star will play in a new adapted film about superhuman teens fighting the government in a dystopian world. In the trailer for The Darkest Minds, 16-year-old Ruby (Sternberg) raises her hand and leads a rebellion of teens who develop superpowers after a plague wiped out the majority of children. The movie is based on the young-adult novel written by Alexandra Bracken, and is produced by the people behind Stranger Things and Arrival. This isn't the first film adaptation for Sternberg. Besides last year's Everything, Everything, she will also star in a movie based on the best-selling novel The Hate U Give, alongside co-stars Issa Rae and Sabrina Carpenter.
