Entertainment Weekly has just revealed 5 exclusive character portraits for Insurgent featuring Tris, Four, Jeanine, Johanna and Evelyn.
EW also interviewed Shailene Woodley(Tris) and Theo James(Four).
Shailene Woodley told EW:
“She’s left with a lot of confusion as far as what the future holds. But she’s also left with a lot of guilt from the war, from losing her parents and from Will, so you see a newfound strength in her for revenge, as well as a lot of internal battles that she’s trying to weave her way around.”
Theo James also spoke of Insurgent:
“In this movie, I wanted it to be clear that obviously things have changed and he’s fallen in love with Shai’s character, but at the same time, he’s still the same man. So I don’t want him to suddenly be like Prince Charming or something. So when you first meet him, he is trying to protect her at the beginning of the movie, and calm her, and make sure she doesn’t make any mistakes. But at the same time, they’re fugitives in this faction that they shouldn’t be in, and he knows that they’ve got to move quickly. And then all hell breaks loose.”
Head over to Entertainment Weekly to read the full interview with Shailene Woodley and Theo James.
Insurgent hits theaters March 20 in 2D, 3D and IMAX 3D.

DIVERGENT FACTION Reaction to final trailer:
The trailer is everything that I’ve ever hoped for. Once Tris is injected for the aptitude test by Tori that’s when the action starts. In the trailer we see the dog simulation and then Tori of course tells Tris her results were inconclusive. In this trailer we see more of my favorite characters Tori(Maggie Q) and Natalie Prior(Ashley Judd). We also get to see a little bit of Tris and Natalie at Visiting day. I get so sad seeing anything that involves Natalie Prior. We also get a better glimpse at Tris heading over to Erudite headquarters. Tris’ simulations when she’s in the tank and when she’s with the crows look great. The part of the trailer that got me the most excited was when Tris and the other Dauntless Initiates ran out of the Choosing Ceremony and were heading for the trains. This is when her journey truly starts. It’s the first day of the rest of her life and that makes be so excited. I can truly tell that this movie will be absolutely amazing! There is no doubt in my mind that it will do great.

Kate Winslet has never been known to play a bad character in a movie. All kf that changed when she accepted the role of Jeanine Matthews in Divergent. Check out what she and Veronica Roth had to say about it.
Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet, who has played several “good girl” roles on the big screen, surprised herself when she agreed to play a baddie in her forthcoming film “Divergent”.
“Divergent” is adapted from Veronica Roth’s novel of the same name and the actress will be seen as Jeanine Matthews, the story’s antagonist.
Winslet, who was pregnant at the time of the shoot, said that she had thoroughly thought through before coming on-board and accepting a negative role.
“I’m no idiot. The idea went through my head that I have never played a baddie before. I was almost kind of surprised,” the “Titanic” actress said in a statement.
It is a story where society is divided into five factions and each represents a different virtue; teenagers have to decide if they want to stay in their faction or switch to another – for the rest of their lives.
Jeanine is the protector of a futuristic dystopian society based in Chicago in which the population is divided into five factions. As the leader of the Erudite, or intelligent group, Jeanine is also the story’s antagonist.
Talking about a scene where she adopts a positively chilly demeanour, Winslet said: “That’s the whole point of Jeanine. She walks down the corridor and sort of just leaves this vapour trail. I knew I had to bring that intimidation.”
Even the author of the book “Divergent” was amazed to see Winslet go deep into the script.
“Kate has gone with a very subtle, even well meaning villain. She’s not a moustache twirling Disney type. She brings the menace in a very quiet way,” Roth said.
You can see Kate in all of her Jeanine glory in Divergent on March 21.
