Sam Trammell Cast as Hazel’s Father in The Fault In Our Stars Movie

Sam Trammell Cast in The Fault In Our Stars 

More amazing news from The Fault in Our Stars casting! True Blood star Sam Trammell has been cast in the role of Hazel Grace’s father. This just about rounds out the cast of all-stars in charge of bringing this amazing novel to life.

 

In the novel by John Green, Hazel’s father doesn’t have a huge role. There is the chance that the film will give him more of a pivotal role, seeing as how Trammell is a really solid actor. Laura Dern is playing Hazel’s mom, with Shailene Woodley leading the cast as Hazel Grace Lancaster. Ansel Elgort plays Hazel’s best friend/boyfriend Augustus Water with Nat Wolff playing his best friend Gus.

Shooting of The Fault in Our Stars starts in two weeks in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, reports Hypable.
