It was already confirmed that “Divergent 3” or “Allegiant” is going to be divided into two parts.
This could only mean that the book-to-movie franchise, based on Veronica Roth’s bestselling young adult novels, could consolidate all of the story’s original plot lines, maybe adding a few more to make the film even more interesting.
The International Business Times has confirmed that Lionsgate had already started to film the third installment of the “Divergent” movie series. Theo James spoke with Collider and told the publication that dividing the last film into two movies was actually a good thing as it gave them more leg room for adding a few things to the plot.
“Not huge changes, no,” James said. “I think they were able to consolidate with the third movie and, kind of, consolidate all the key elements of the book. I think it is going to be pretty similar. I think the luxury of this one is that we have time to tell the book over two movies. So, I think, if anything, it will be the material in the book, but then added, as well.”
“There will be more stuff because we have more time to tell the story,” he added.
Shailene Woodley, on the other hand, opted to be more secretive with regards to the film. When asked about the film being divided into two parts, she would only respond about her excitement of making it. “I am excited,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “That is another year of kicking ass. I am honored to be Tris. It is exciting. ‘Divergent’ was a very fun film to make. I worked with some great people.”
Apart from “Allegiant: Part 1,” Woodley is also busy wrapping up “Snowden.” After she films this particular movie, she will be jetting off to start production for the third “Divergent” flick.
