According to Entertainment Weekly, the singer's character in The Giver is "the last teen mentored by The Giver before he meets Jonas." Jonas is played by Brenton Thwaites, one of the key characters in the story.
The Giver is based on Lois Lowry's book of the same title, which tells the story of a seemingly perfect world without war, pain and suffering, notes the film's description. The plot centers on Jonas, a 12-year old who was appointed to be the community's Receiver of Memories.
As the Receiver of Memories, Jonas' task is to savor all the pain, suffering and sadness of the community, notes io9.com.
