Tris and Four will explore the world beyond the walls of Chicago in the upcoming The Divergent Series: Allegiant. The third film in the franchise is expected to stay close to the book, while author Veronica Roth explained why Tris' sacrifice in the story is necessary.
The trailer for the Divergent Series: Allegiant has been released showing Tris and Four along with their allies as they cross the walls that bound them. As reported by The Global Dispatch, franchise leading man, Theo James also revealed that it will include key parts in the novel.
Moreover, he also confirmed that several elements will be added as well given that the final book in the film will be separated into two features."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 said.
Veronica Roth also previously revealed that changes are to be expected in the big screen iteration of her books. As reported by Movie News Guide Roth did not specify the changes to be expected in The Divergent Series: Allegiant. But she explained Tris' sacrifice in the story, saying that it is a necessity for the character especially after her experiences in the previous two books.
"It has to be about love... it felt like it was her finally understanding what her parents were trying to teach her in Abnegation and finally understanding what it means to be an adult and make a grown up decision because you have to, not because you particularly want to", Roth said.
Meanwhile, as reported by Yibada, despite James and girlfriend Ruth Kearney's public display of affection in Prague, rumor mill suggest that he could still be linked to co-actor Shailene Woodley. James has been consistent in keeping his personal life private, thus many speculate that the sudden PDA in Prague could simply a cover up to the real state of his relationship with Kearney.
Filming has recently concluded for The Divergent Series: Allegiant. It is directed by Robert Schwentke, and screenplay by Noah Oppenheim, Adam Cooper, Bill Collage, and Stephen Chbosky. Look for it in theaters on March 18, 2016.
