    Lionsgate shares are under pressure this morning after “Allegiant,” the third film in the “Divergent” franchise, stumbled at the box office, opening to a lackluster $29 million.

  • Watch 'Allegiant' Stars Answer Fan Questions, Hilariously Fail to Recite Theo James's Full Name

    “Theo James” is a lot easier to say — and fits way better on a movie poster — than the The Divergent Series’ breakout star’s full birth name: Theodore Peter James Kinnaird Taptiklis. So you understand why the 31-year-old Brit goes by a shorter, Hollywood-friendlier stage name.

    The Hunger Games saga comes to an end next with Mockingjay - Part 2, but lovers of post-apocalyptic YA movies need not cry. There are still plenty more of those in the pipeline! Saturday Night Live spoofed the genre’s sudden ubiquitousness in a fake trailer for “The Group Hopper” — from “the director of Maze Runner, the producer of Divergent, and a casual fan of The Giver.” Characters are penned in by walls, sorted into groups, and fall in love at first glance.

  • Insurgent Stars Shailene Woodley And Theo James Play The Faction Quiz  - EXCLUSIVE VIDEO

    So you’d think Shailene Woodley and Theo James would not only know the different factions, but they’d be pretty close to their fellow cast-members by now, right? We decided we’d put their knowledge to the test and get them to decide which of the cast members belong in which factions. Think of it as the Harry Potter Sorting Hat for factions, if you will. Unfortunately for Ansel Elgort and Miles Teller fans, they don’t fit neatly into one faction – perhaps they’re ‘Divergent’ or even, factionless?   To find out which ‘Insurgent’ cast members are the most intelligent (Erudite), the most energetic (Dauntless), the most selfless (Abnegation), the most harmonious (Amity) and the most brutally honest (Candor), have a watch of the video above.  Image: Rex Insurgent is released on DVD and Blu-Ray on August 3rd.
