According to an insider’s source of the Hollywood Reporter, 17 year old Brendan Meyer from the Disney XD series Mr. Young has been cast as the bully Stilson who torments Ender Wiggin at school.
Although the role is very small, the character Stilson has a lasting impact on Ender as he makes his way through Battle School, coming back to haunt Ender when he begins to play the fantasy game Giant’s Drink.
Meyer joins Asa Butterfield (Ender Wiggin) in the production, which begins filming in New Orleans next February, while Hailee Steinfeld and Ben Kingsley are still in negotiations to join the cast.
