Insurgent Featurette from Regal Cinemas

Regal Cinemas takes us behind the scenes with this new behind the scenes look at Insurgent.

Insurgent: About "The Box"

New information was made available to us today from Lionsgate about Insurgent. Thanks so, so much to www.fyeahtheojames.com for sharing what was in the press release with us all!

First, here's an interview from MTV with Shailene Woodley about the box and the significance of Tris's divergence.

Next, some info from Lionsgate explaining some of the production value of adding the box to Insurgent's story line.

Lastly, we also learned today that Insurgent will be rated PG-13 for intense violence and action throughout, some sensuality, thematic elements and brief language. The movie will have 158 minute run time (2 hours, 38 minutes! 19 minutes longer than Divergent!)

Final Insurgent Trailer + Tickets On Sale!

Tickets for Insurgent went on sale today! Check out fandango.com to find a showing in a theater near you. And don't worry if you don't see one just yet. I've found that some theaters don't update with Fandango as fast as others (I had a bit of a ticket fiasco with the Night before the Stars event... lol).

Here's the epic final trailer for Insurgent!! Make sure to check out all the official Insurgent videos here!!

ROUNDUP: Ansel Elgort at the Oscars! (Photos + Videos)

Ansel Elgort's first time at the Oscars!

On February 22nd, 2015, Ansel Elgort presented at the Academy Awards! He took his mother as his date.

Ansel posted this on Instagram with the caption, "MY MOM IS MY DATE!!"

Photo from @Ann_Caruso on Instagram

Grethe Holby (Ansel's mom) was wearing a red dress designed by Azzedine Alaia. Ansel wore an excellent navy blue tux by Prada. They were both decked out with jewelry from Harry Winston! A watch for Ansel and gorgeous earrings for Grethe!

Third Insurgent TV Spot - "Risk Everything" + 15 Screenshots

This is the TV Spot that aired before the Oscars! (Another one came out earlier today as well, but this one is more exciting!)

Here are the screenshots of mostly new things in this TV Spot! And what I think of them! (click on them to enlarge)

 This must be inside Erudite!

Looks to me like Dauntless patrolling Factionless areas. And what is that Erudite propaganda? That's crazy!

Beautiful Amity

My theory is that's Jeanine on that building, because, as you'll see in a later screen shot (and like the second one) she's got herself projected everywhere. The book described Erudite HQ as having big paintings of her everywhere, the movie just took that a step further into the technological age.

A new angle of some FourTris love <3

Four and Tris leaving... somewhere. 

Eric's coming to get you... With Jeanine watching, as always. I happen to love how they've updated her Erudite propaganda 

A new glimpse at Caleb

Ooooh poor Marlene ;(

Four and Tris having a little heart to heart. I think this must be near the end because they're standing there with the box in the background.

Dauntless comes busting into Amity, most likely when they're searching for Four, Tris, Caleb and Peter. 

Dauntless taking out Amity from the inside. 

Tris and Caleb narrowly escaping the Dauntless attack.

Again, Eric is coming for you. Lol but seriously, he is.

And this last part... much better in video form but I had to post it because I had to share that it honestly made me gasp out loud that this is in the movie. So emotional when he's banging on the window and yells, "Tris!"

Second Insurgent TV Spot! - "Be Different"

Thanks SO much to www.fyeahtheojames.com for finding and sharing this on Twitter!! 

This is not the same as the TV spot that aired before the Oscars, but you can watch that one here!

"Be Different" 

[It was shared by Jaguar Film International] 

Second Insurgent Clip! Tris, Tobias, Peter, and Caleb in Amity!

Thanks to Collider, check out this new clip from Insurgent! I didn't really like Peter in the books but I love the way Miles Teller is bringing him to life!! He's honestly becoming one of my favorite characters to watch.

Also, be sure to check out all the other official videos from Insurgent on my "videos" page, here! 

Ansolo shares music with us!

 Check out Ansel Elgort (aka Ansolo)'s guestmix on his fellow producer Arno Cost's show, When In Paris!

What does this even mean, you ask? Ansel shared some of his favorite music with us and even some of his own tracks! This is actually a momentous event because it's the first time he's shared his newest remix in it's finalized form with us! It's called Runaway (U & I) and was produced by Galantis.

Skip ahead to around 30:00 in to the show if you want to hear Ansel! (Not that I suggest missing out on what Arno Cost shared with us for the first half hour, but let's face it, I know my audience.) His voice sounds so strangely deep... A friend of mine thinks its a sore throat, but my guess is that he recorded himself in the middle of the night. Lol we probably think about these things too much. XD

Ansel Elgort Gets Personal with Elle Magazine

I never thought I'd see the day that Ansel spoke so openly about his love life, but apparently that day is here. This interview with Elle Magazine is in their March 2015 issue.  Honestly, I can't believe so much drama came out of this article. It doesn't help having every major news source tweet about it saying "Ansel Elgort lost his virginity at 14" and then only sharing that segment of the interview. Not great for his image. But the other comments about sex, I think that's what really got to people. Mainly because 90% of his fans are younger than 20. I just think sex is still taboo for that generation, so the fact that Ansel is acting like a normal, healthy adult about it spooks them. It's unfortunate. They should listen to him and learn from him. Because it's true, as humans it's in our nature to seek sexual satisfaction, so once you've found it why waste it? That's the human way. And as for wanting to find that special someone who shares your interests (like going to an EDM concert and then enjoying some video game time), what's so wrong with that? Maybe he didn't say everything so eloquently, but he's a real dude. You can't fault him for that.

For a generation of young women, Ansel Elgort may always be Augustus Waters, the cancer-stricken heartthrob in last year's heartbreaking romance The Fault in Our Stars. You can't blame them. Gus is basically Prince Charming with an iPhone. It turns out Elgort—whose father is renowned photographer (and sometimes ELLE contributor) Arthur Elgort—is a hopeless romantic too, often speaking as if he's been sprung from a Shakespearean sonnet. If the 21-year-old actor is so in touch with his emotions, perhaps that's because he graduated from Manhattan's LaGuardia High (aka the Fame school) and spent his summers at Stagedoor Manor, the storied theater camp in the Catskills with alumni such as Natalie Portman and Lea Michele. The dude knows drama. This month, Elgort (who deejays under the name Ansolo and will appear in Prada's spring/summer ad campaign) reunites with his Fault costar Shailene Woodley in Insurgent, the second installment of the Divergent film series—which still may be less intense than what happened the night he lost his virginity.

What were the girls like at LaGuardia?
Ansel Elgort: LaGuardia is a wonderful, wonderful place. If you're like me and you love dancers, you just have to walk up to the eighth floor and you can get one.

You make it sound like adopting a puppy.
[Laughs] That's a terrible way of saying it! No, you can just go up there and try to flirt. I like strong women. Physical women. My dad photographed a lot of beautiful dancers. My mom was a dancer. I love when a girl is like, "I can't hang out. I have to go to class." And I go pick her up and she's all sweaty in a leotard with her hair in a bun. That's the hottest thing ever.

VIDEO: Ansel Elgort on Fox After Dark on NBA TV

Did you miss Ansel Elgort's appearance on Fox After Dark? Never fear, the video is here! Ansel sat down with Rick Fox for NBA TV to talk hoops and Insurgent! (Be sure to turn your volume up if you want to actually hear the interview, the video is kind of quiet!)

Insurgent Deleted Scene, "Tris and Tobias Break Up"
