While the two-part “Divergent: Allegiant” is to hit theaters next year considering that the sequel “Insurgent” was just shown in March this year, people have already been talking about the upcoming movie owing to the great chemistry between its lead stars Theo James and Shailene Woodley, who plays Four and Tris, respectively, in the series.
“Divergent: Allegiant Part 1” is due to hit theaters on March 18, 2016.
Their romantic chemistry onscreen is so obvious that some fans of the series have insinuated that the two may be onto something in their private lives. Theo James and Shailene Woodley eventually quashed those rumors as the two of them have their respective relationships.
British actor Theo James has his girlfriend Ruth Kearney while Shailene Woodley is going out with Nahko Bear.
Feeling awkward
In a recent interview, James admitted that there are a number of intimate scenes between Four and Tris in the upcoming third installment of the very successful “Divergent” movie series based on the novel of the same title by author Veronica Roth.
They have one intimate scene in the sequel “Insurgent” and according to Theo James, he really felt awkward that he even had to drink booze to be able to take on the scene.
He also shared that the most awkward thing that took place while they were filming the scene was when something had to be changed that the two of them had to freeze at the moment until they can finally move, details Movie News Guide.
James said that he really felt uneasy about it because they were completely naked and covered in sweat.
But Shailene Woodley is not bothered at all since she already had her fair share of bed scenes from previous movies including “The Fault in Our Stars.”
The 23-year-old actress said that sexuality is a very normal part of life so the more that kind of normalcy is suppressed; the more people seek ways to fulfil their sexual needs.
She also said that it was not difficult doing the sex scene with Theo James because he was such a gentleman that she felt really comfortable. She added that doing a sex scene with Theo James is like shooting a normal scene with him.
Banking on the success
“Divergent: Allegiant Part 1” is reportedly banking on the successful chemistry of lead stars Theo James and Shailene Woodley and the characters they played in the series as Four and Tris, respectively.
The two will be returning again as they enter the Bureau of the Genetic Welfare and find out something about themselves and the kind of world they live in.
It was reported early this month that the movie will be taking on veteran actors Bill Skarsgard and Jeff Daniels to join the cast of “Divergent: Allegiant” and it is likely that the two are good as in since they already have characters to fill in.
