A special collector's edition of "Divergent: Allegiant" is set to hit the bookshelves this week. Veronica Roth revealed that the new book includes multiple deleted scenes between Tris and Tobias, as well as 48 pages of bonus content.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Roth explained that he had to cut a few scenes in order to speed up the writing process. She shared that there was supposed to be a chapter where Tris, Tobias and the others reunite with the rest of Dauntless. She said that it was supposed to symbolize a "quiet rebellion" on their part, in which they wanted to prove that they will remain a faction no matter what the factionless say.
The third movie is going to be split into two movies, "The Divergent Series: Allegiant - Part 1" and "The Divergent Series: Allegiant - Part 2." Shailene Woodley and Theo James will be reprising their roles as Tris and Four, respectively.
It has long been rumored that the movie will end on a much happier note, with Tris and Four eventually getting the happy ending they deserve. Both actors, however, have expressed their skepticism in having a different ending, explaining that it would change Roth's vision.
Steve Pattinson, from Toronto, On, started a petition on change.org, encouraging the producers and directors to change the ending of "Allegiant." He said that he did not agree with how Roth ended the series, adding that Tris symbolized hope.
"The hero's victory is our victory, and when the hero dies, it feels as if we've died too," he wrote.
"The Divergent Series: Allegiant - Part 1" premieres March 18, 2016.
