I AM SO HYPED!!!
From what I have seen the actress that plays Tris refuses to do a tv version of the final movie. So I have little interest in this because it won't finish the story Tris started. In fact I am selling my blurays of the three movies. I don't have Starz and I am not paying for Starz on top of my regular dish bill. They should have made one movie, it was idiotic to split it.
So far it sounds like the majority of the actors do not plan on coming back for a TV movie, so they will be recasting the characters. The movie is going to tie into a TV series based off completely new characters.
Kind of. The TV Series in a nutshell will be the story and script that would've gone to the final film but will be played out n 10-13 episodes. It's spin off in the sense that it's a different format of media but will contiune after the ending of Allegiant - Part 1. So more of an extension of the movie series
It also sounds like they are getting an entire new cast to play the main characters as Shailene Woodley, Theo James, Miles Teller, and Ansel Elgort have all backed out of reprising their roles in the TV series.
It was a bad move on Lionsgate's part to split the last book into two movies. There wasn't enough material for it to make sense and be a coherent plotline.
Apparently there were talks (I cannot find the link now, forgive me) of remaking Allegiant in the future.
With some additional material developing ths story after Tris, it could have been split at the point where Tris stays at the Bureau and Four goes off to Chicago. But with almost no one wanting to reprise their film roles, will they ever make this movie???? What would be the point? It would be tough to capture the chemistry of the original cast.....Shay will always be Tris and Theo Four
