The Fault in Our Stars movie has cast Williem Dafoe in the critical role as Peter Van Houten.
The casting announcement was made by author John Green on his official Twitter account Friday afternoon.
Peter Van Houten is the favorite author of Hazel Grace (played by Shailene Woodley). In the story, Van Houten invites Hazel and Augustus to his home in Amsterdam so that he can spill secrets about characters in his book An Imperial Affliction. The author and book are fictional.
After a couple forks in the road caused by her health, Hazel, her mother, and her medical team deem her suitable for travel, and thus the trip is made.
The Fault in Our Stars movie began shooting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania last week. It co-stars Woodley as Hazel, Ansel Elgort as Augustus Waters, Laura Dern as Hazel’s mother, and Sam Trammell as Hazel’s father.
Green visited the set last week and filmed a great VlogBrothers episode with the cast. After they finish shoots in Pittsburgh they will move to Amsterdam for on-location filming.
A release date for The Fault in Our Stars has not been set.
