‘Ascendant’ to become TV Movie and Spinoff Series! #Divergent

Variety is exclusively reporting that the final film in the Divergent series will become a television film and will lead up to a TV series spinoff.

Negotiations are in the early stages, but instead of having “The Divergent Series: Ascendant” open in theaters next year, the studio wants to wrap up the film series on the small screen, according to an individual with knowledge of the situation. That would then segue into a standalone television series set in the same post-apocalyptic world.

Lionsgate’s television group will handle production. The idea is to finalize the storylines involving the current cast and to introduce a new cast, who would then continue the series on either a traditional or streaming network.

It has not been reported that any of the stars from the film series, Shailene Woodley, Ansel Elgort, Theo James or any of the others will return to reprise their roles.

Jai Courtney signs with Bonds Underwear

Our badass aussie has signed with Bonds Underwear and we have to admit that we want him for Christmas!

The brand is considered a national symbol in Australia and has been making underwear since 1918, three years after it was founded.

Jai has recently said that training for ‘Terminator’ has gave him the confidence he needed to undress for Bonds:

“It came about at a time when I was in the throes of having to get into shape for [The Terminator] film I’m working on — so the timing couldn’t have been more perfect for an underwear campaign, that’s for sure,” Courtney said, with a laugh.”

“I guess that alleviated a little of the anxiety that would have come about with the nature of this kind of shoot. But I’m proud to be associated with the brand they’re obviously an iconic part of Australian history really.”

We hope you are as delighted as us, to keep up to date with more ‘Divergent’ news follow us on twitter @DivergentFction.
