Ansel Elgort: Teen Vogue September Cover Star

September Cover Star Ansel Elgort on Movies, Music, and What He Would Do If He Was Taylor Swift

Posted by Teen Vogue (if it was a small blog I wouldn't copy/paste the whole thing, but seeing as it's Teen Vogue... I don't feel so bad). Photos at the end!!

Watch the behind the scenes video at the end as well!

"When I met Ansel, I didn't know he was a star. We were in Amsterdam, my hometown, at a Nicky Romero Protocol party about a year ago. The funny thing is, I've never seen one of his films because I barely watch movies. We had a crazy-fun night — then I posted a picture with him on Instagram, and the number of comments was ridiculous. I found out who he was a week later. What makes Ansel so cool is his easygoing personality. He's the most humble guy, and he's always true to himself. He is supertalented, but still the same person I met last October. And he produces his own music, which is a big deal in an industry where most people hand that job over to someone else. We send each other tracks, and we've played onstage together — but our friendship is about more than just music; he's like a brother to me. I think we've exchanged around 200 ugly selfies — I'll wake up and get one from him, and then I'll reply back with one. Ansel and I recently met up in New York and had a great conversation, the type you can't have with just anyone. We relate on so many levels — we're both young; we love music and life; and we each have great careers and are trying to balance them with our personal lives. It's nice to have a friend who really understands you. — Martin Garrix" 

Insurgent Special Features REVIEW

As it always seems to go, the best special features are only available on the 3D bluray, blu-ray, or the special editions made available from Target, Best Buy, or WalMart. I am only reviewing the basic 3D bluray, which is the same as what's on the bluray. Target has some additional footage that I won't be reviewing. WalMart's edition doesn't have any extra footage that isn't available on the regular version, though they are selling a pack that has both Divergent and Insurgent in it.

First I'll review each special feature, then I'll give you my overall impression of them all plus if I felt like anything could've been changed or added. You know me, I can't review something with just one or two sentences. If you're wanting to watch all these features without knowing what they're about or what's in them (and even quotes), then don't read ahead! Wait and watch for yourself first!! My overall review is that they're all excellent and totally worth it!

I'll be watching the Producers' commentary at a future time and I'll write a separate post for all the interesting facts I learn from it.

Hypable Exclusive: Shailene Explains the Truth Serum

Exclusively from Hypable.com:

In a brand new video snippet from the upcoming Insurgent DVD, actress Shailene Woodley discusses the truth serum sequence her character Tris goes through when she and Four (Theo James) arrive at Candor seeking refuge.

As Woodley puts it, the truth serum in the world of Divergent is a double edged sword.

“On one hand, it’s good because it allows someone to speak honestly and openly but on the other hand it’s forced from them and so that honesty doesn’t come with any sort of compassion, or any sort of pillow, and it’s hard to hear new information that hasn’t been infiltrated with a sense of kindness,” explains the actress. “I felt very distraught to have to watch Tris go through something that was so stripping.

Teen Exclusive: FourTris Feels from Insurgent Resurface

From Teen.com:

"In the 1+-minute’s worth of footage, Shailene Woodley begins to explain her character’s relationship with her love in the second film in the successful movie franchise, “The relationship with Four has been affected because Tris hasn’t had time to digest her own situations and so she isn’t able to be present with another person.”

“Four is trying to help her and contain her in a way, but there’s a distance that’s growing between them,” Theo James adds.

Insurgent will be available on 3D Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand on August 4. Until then, watch our exclusive behind-the-scenes clip here:"

EW Exclusive: Veronica Roth on Insurgent Sims

From Entertainment Weekly:

"The film arrives on Digital HD on July 21 (with Blu-ray and DVD to follow on Aug. 4), and in an exclusive clip from a behind-the-scenes featurette, Roth talks about how the simulation scenes opened her eyes to storytelling possibility and the power of cinema.

“In the movie, you can show [the series of simulations] in such great detail, and they can become so much bigger, and so much cooler, and so much stranger than you ever imagined,” she says. “So for me, that’s been the best part of seeing this movie get filmed, is just how huge and crazy the world has become.”"

Insurgent Blu-ray Giveaway!!!

I was lucky enough to receive an advance copy of Insurgent from Lionsgate to review the special features (which is coming soon, I promise!) and they offered two blu-rays to give away!! I'm so excited to share them with you!

The winners have been emailed!! 

Thank you to everyone who entered! The prizes have been mailed out!

a Rafflecopter giveaway

Unfortunately, movies are coded by region, which means that it won't work on any equipment manufactured outside of North America. That means this giveaway is only open to US, Canada and Mexico. 

(I'm so sorry, everyone else! I'll make sure to have another giveaway before too long that's open to everyone! Another factor is that I'm not currently working as I'm an employee of the school district, so that means I'm out for summer break right now- and not getting a paycheck. Shipping oddly shaped things (like posters, for example) internationally is not cheap! But I love you guys and when I am making money I enjoy giving back to everyone in what little way I can, so keep your eyes peeled in the future.) 

All I need for you to enter is a valid email address, so I can respond to the winner! The entry option is simply to tell me who your favorite character was in Insurgent! Only one entry per person, each day (so you can enter twice), but your entry actually counts as five, so your name goes into the hat 5 times (10 times, if you enter both days).  NOTE: Entries only count in the raffle copter raffle below. 

I'm not the biggest fan of giveaways in which you can enter as many times as you want... then some people who have nothing to do that day would have a way better chance of winning than say.. an adult who's stuck working a shift for 8 hours that day. I want this to be fair for everyone, so you get two chances. I wanted to start it midday Friday but rafflecopter won't let me start any time other than midnight unless I pay to upgrade my account.

Allegiant Deleted Scene

This is a deleted scene from Allegiant that was only available in the edition sold by Chapters bookstores in Canada. Thanks so much to the-divergent-faction.tumblr.com for sharing these photos for us all to enjoy! (Be sure to click on the images to enlarge them!)

This scene talks about them getting tattoos of their number of fears, and we've seen a photo from the set of Tris with a mysterious mark on her inner wrist, just like what's described in this very deleted scene... curiouser and curiouser!

New/Old Photos from the set of Divergent

These photos were recently shared by Garrett Warren, the stunt coordinator for the movie Divergent! His list of stunt work, both as coordinator and double, even sometimes the fight coordinator, is vast. Check it out here!

"Found a bunch of pics from past work. This is the set where we filmed the training fights on Divergent. I loved Alwins lighting. #divergent"

"Rehearsing with Shai and Theo. #divergent"

The above photo is of Shailene and Tony Goldwyn!

Allegiant Production Officially Commences

Lionsgate, the company producing The Divergent Series, issued a press release today that brought light to a number of interesting new facts. In case you don't want to read the full thing, I'll sum up the interesting bits for you.

• Allegiant officially began on May 20th: "principal photography has commenced"
• Nadia Hilker has been cast as Nita (photo of her below)
• Screenwriters are Noah Oppenheim and Adam Cooper & Bill Collage and Stephen Chbosky, (Yes, that Stephen Chbosky)

Jai Courtney in "The Water Diviner"

Jai Courtney, who featured as Divergent's antagonist, Eric, is now starring in The Water Diviner directed by Russel Crowe.

The Water Diviner follows the true story of an Austrailian farmer travelling to Turkey after the Battle of Gallipoli to find his three sons. Jai Courtney plays Lieutenant Colonel Cyril Hughes, a member of the Imperial War Graves Unit and a man who played a key role in bringing some kind of order to the destruction of Gallipoli in the immediate years following the war. 

"It was a bit of an intimidating first meeting,” he says. “He looked me in the eyes and said, ‘Can you ride a horse?’ So, like any actor would, I said yes. He saw right through me and said, ‘Don’t bullshit me’.” He laughs. “The great thing about Russell is he demands the same from himself as he does from everyone else around him. He’s an incredibly hard worker and a real stickler for authenticity. I knew it was going to be a tough job but he was just wonderful." 

The Water Diviner is in cinemas now (15)

Ansel Elgort Explains Why Caleb Runs So Weird!!!

I'm so glad he finally acknowledged it!! The thing that bugs me is... Caleb was Erudite. He would have been smart enough to know that running a certain way is going to be better for your body than flailing yourself around... I mean.. in the book Caleb was pretty good at jumping on and off the train because he could calculate the angles, distances, and timing of it all. I'm sure he could figure out how to run, Sheesh...

This is an interview Ansel had with MTV to clarify his reasoning in running so strangely.

Ansel Explains Why His 21st Birthday Is Like Pokemon

Ansel did this interview with MTV to explain how he feels like turning 21 is like a Gyrados learning Dragon Rage. Awesome Pokemon analogy, my friend!

Ansel turned 21 on March 14th, 2015. He celebrated with a party catered by Chipotle Mexican Grill and then his friends and family piled onto a "party bus" with him and they all went to Pacha NYC, where he had a headlining show as Ansolo. See photos here!

Ansel Elgort in Commercial for 2015 MTV Movie Awards

This is awesome! (I'm sorry we didn't share this earlier..) Ansel scored a TV spot with Amy Schumer, the host of this years 2015 MTV Movie Awards.

"2015 Movie Awards host Amy Schumer will totally hook Ansel Elgort up with an award of his own, but she has one not-so-tiny condition. Make sure you watch the big show live on Sunday, April 12 at 8/7c to catch all the action!"

20 Brilliant "Insurgent" Reaction gifs featuring Ansel Elgort via Buzzfeed

I'll be honest... I have no idea how to embed gifs... 

So CLICK HERE to go check out these hilarious reaction gifs that Buzzfeed made with Ansel when they had him for his Twitter Q & A. You don't want to miss them!

Be warned- kinda spoiler alert for the last few. They give some detail about the ending of the movie, things you might not already know from the book, so if you haven't seen the movie yet make sure not to scroll to the very end! 

Jai Courtney gives Shailene, Miles and Ansel a Q&A

During the Insurgent Press Day, Kim Holcomb (an entertainment reporter) enlisted the help of Jai Courtney to ask his co-stars some humourous questions.

Ansel Elgort, Shailene Woodley and Miles Teller were each asked a question from Jai via a video.

Jai's question for Ansel was "Ansel, were you aware that by portraying Caleb in Insurgent, you'd look like such a b****?" 

For Shailene: "Shailene, was it weird kissing your brother in The Fault In Our Stars?" 

And Finally to Miles: "Miles, do you think you were robbed not being nominated for an Oscar (for Whiplash) this year? I noticed JK (Simmons) didn't thank you in his acceptance speech. Is that something that upset you, and why?"

March 30th- Insurgent Stills!

HLN: Game on! We quiz the stars of 'Insurgent'

"Shailene Woodley, Theo James, Miles Teller, Ansel Elgort and Octavia Spencer are the stars of one of the biggest movies of 2015 -- "Insurgent," the second hit in the YA book series/film franchise that has legions of super fans!When we caught up with the star-studded cast of the "Divergent" follow-up before the sequel's release, we had to test their knowledge on their own film and, of course, find out which faction they think they would belong to.

Theo James Gets Interviewed on Four and How He Changes the Roles He Portrays (BONUS: 5 New Portraits!)

In his new interview with LA Times, Theo James talks his old music career, the "Divergent Experience," and being offered more movie roles.

On his old music career:
“Now I’m scared to touch one [a saxophone] ,” he says of the instrument. “I feel like I’ve lost all my powers. It saddens me.”

On the "Divergent Experience"and Insurgent filming:
“Sometimes the nature of a big movie, the nature of the material, the scene doesn’t have the richness that you’d want it to,” James said. “We always personally worked together to make it make sense and make it as real as possible in that hyper real world. We talked about how there would be fractiousness and distance between [Tris and Four].”

On being offered more roles: 
“Scripts and opportunities changed and increased, but that’s a double-edged sword,” he said. “It’s easy to be wooed by what comes easy and the glamorous ones, those kinds of projects, whereas I was pretty sure I wanted to, at least for three or four years, be very specific with what I do and do smaller stuff.”

Behind the Scenes Video: Ansel Elgort with Teen Vogue

Ansel recently had a photoshoot with Teen Vogue for their April issue! Here's a behind the scenes video they shared, and the photos are below, along with their intro to the video!

"Going behind-the-scenes with Ansel Elgort is never a bad thing—especially when there's dancing involved. When we spent some quality time with the Insurgent star in Brooklyn during his Teen Vogue photo shoot, he was totally in his element.

Ansel went back to his roots for the dance and theater-inspired shoot. From the backstage dressing room vibes to a gorgeous model accompanying him en pointe, his time in the studio definitely brought back some memories. But that wasn't the only magic that happened throughout the day.

Ansel's mom brought a very special guest by the shoot—Katie Hawley, who's battling Ganglioneuroblastoma, a type of nodular cancer. As a big The Fault in Our Stars fan (and Ansel fan in general!), it made her day to be able to meet her favorite star—and completely inspired Ansel in return.

The main thing we took away from this video? Ansel's still the same sweet, thoughtful guy we've always known him to be. Despite being one of the most-talked-about movie stars in the biz, he's happy to say he's still as normal as can be. As in a Chipotle-loving, street ball-playing guy who loves nothing more than lying in bed relaxing for hours on end. Watch the video above and see for yourself!"

@anselelgort is the best date ever! We went out with Hollywood's king of hearts—head to TeenVogue.com to hear all about the strange sides of fame and what love means to Ansel. Photos by @giampaolosgura.

Ansel Elgort interview with Seventeen Magazine (+ Photos)

Ansel is on the cover of the April issue of Seventeen Magazine! 

He actually has two covers! 

Here's the teaser for the interview from Seventeen Magazine's website:

The egg-throwing scene in The Fault in Our Stars is one of the most memorable moments in a movie that otherwise makes you cry your face off. Turns out, star Ansel Elgort had some real-life practice (eggsperience?), he reveals exclusively in the April issue of Seventeen.

Sounds like Ansel was a bit of a troublemaker back in the day, but the best part of his story is that he was able to sweet talk his way out of it, just like the endlessly charming Augustus.

He tells Seventeen:

"[My friend] Jordan and I used to throw eggs off my roof and hit cars. We got in trouble with the police when I was 15. They came to our door. I told my dad, 'We were throwing eggs off the roof and you were out of town and they got really mad at us and said if we did it again we would get in trouble, but we're never going to do it again.' I said it all in one sentence. He was like, 'Okay.'"

Here are a few quotes from this interview that E! shared here:

"If a woman is really pretty, it's kind of hard. I'm not going to lie. Actually, that's not true," Elgort said. "Me and Shailene have a really platonic relationship. I've never once wanted her sexually, which is nice. But for me, if a person is someone I'm attracted to, and she's my best friend, hopefully we're dating."

"I like to buy girls shoes and jewelry," the 22-year-old actor said proudly. "I buy stupidly expensive shoes. I got Louboutins for my mom and my girlfriend before. My mom was like, 'I can't wear these; they're too high.' I was like, 'Mom, you have to try them—they're so cool. They're red snakeskin!' She still wears them every so often, but she can't walk in them."

"I like romantic dates—going on a long walk in Central Park and then taking the subway downtown and going out to eat and ordering oysters. After that, you walk around again and talk. Morning dates are nice, too. I love doing romantic s--t. It's fun," Elgort told Seventeen, on newsstands March 24. "It's like you're living in a movie."

Epic Reads on the set of Insurgent

Check out this awesome video from the girls at Epic Reads! They met up with Veronica Roth in the Factionless set for Evelyn's house and got hands-on with the trinkets that fill the space (like we all wish we could) and then they went and gushed over the costumes! You aren't going to want to miss this!

HBO First Look: Behind the Scenes of Insurgent

This 13 minute long video includes a ton of glimpses at clips we haven't seen from Insurgent before and lots of new interviews! Thanks so much to PlanetShailene for uploading the video to YouTube! I could've just done it for myself but I'm a little scared of Lionsgate, lol.

New Clip: Tris and Four Will Find the Truth

Check out this new clip from MTV!

I know it feels like a ton of clips are being released and we're practically seeing the whole movie before it even comes out, but to me it feels like we're still well below what we got for Divergent last year. That was just nuts. So it's up to you whether or not you want to watch new clips/TV spots when they're released. You can choose not to! I decided not to watch the B-Roll footage of Insurgent for instance.

Ansel Elgort on LIVE with Kelly and Michael! (Video + Photos)

Ansel Elgort went on Live with Kelly and Michael to talk about Insurgent. He even talked about Anselites! I have never heard him say that word out loud before. I know he must've said it to the New York Post once because they shared it in an interview that later made it into People Magazine, but now we get to see it with our own eyes! 

(I'm particularly excited about this because I was actually the one who made up the word "Anselite". I knew he was going to have a big fandom someday and I wanted to have a hand in shaping it, so I asked him a number of times what he would choose and a number of my followers and I suggested quite a few options (like Elgies, or Elgorettes, *shudders*) but in the end he chose Anselites! It stands for Ansel + satellite, which is an object that revolves around something else, so in our case we're the fans revolving around the star called Ansel Elgort.)

Here's the interview! Thanks to Catie for recording it and sharing it with us!
