We might not know when exactly it’s happening, but we know it’s coming for sure now – “Divergent 3: Allegiant” has been confirmed and it’s definitely in the works, and Theo James has recently decided to share some secrets about the film’s plot together with Shailene Woodley, generating a lot of hype all over the Internet as fans of the franchise were extremely happy to hear the confirmation.
Of course, there have been various rumors for a while now, and most of the fans were already convinced that the new film was happening, they just didn’t know when. We still don’t know, but it’s always good to hear the news from a more official source instead of having to rely on alleged sources close to the set.
The sequel will apparently be split into two parts in order to allow the writers and producers to expand more on some important plot points, so fans should prepare for a lot of new content. It looks like it’s going to be an exciting ride as well, as we’ve been hearing various curious details about what the new film is going to offer.
At the same time, the most important elements of the plot structure aren’t going to change, as Theo James reassured his fans that they’re aiming for as much consistency as possible with the design of the new film. Key elements from the book have been taken and implemented into the new installment as closely as possible, and the amount of information that has to be presented from the book has been the main motivating factor behind the decision to split the film into two parts.
Plus, this gives them more room for experimenting with new additions to the plot themselves. Even though the film is going to try and stick to the original structure as closely as possible, it’s still going to introduce some new elements that could shake things up for fans, but hopefully there will be nothing too extreme that takes the story too far away from what it was in the books.
Shailene Woodley also wanted to confirm that the film is happening, but she wasn’t that eager to talk about its plot in detail, just stating that she was excited that the film is being developed. She didn’t address questions about the two-part decision, but we don’t know why she decided to avoid them, considering that Theo James has been more open in discussing the structure of the new film. Of course, it’s possible that Shailene Woodley simply doesn’t have much information to share right now.
