Don’t expect to see Theo James in any more Divergent movies or television shows.
Although Lionsgate announced they would like to make a TV movie for the final film in the series, Ascendant, and a TV show, the 32-year-old actor has said that he will not be returning to his role as Four.
“I think it’s a shame that we can’t finish the story,” he told TooFab. “But I think it’s evolving in a place where the actors that have been in the three movies probably won’t be in whatever it evolves to in the future.”
His co-star Shailene Woodley also said that she will not be involved in any further movies or TV series.
Theo has also been apart of the Underworld franchise since Underworld: Awakening, and he was asked if he would still be involved in any future films in that series, after the upcoming Underworld: Blood Wars.
“I think David’s storyline is done. I think his arc has been fully realized,” he said. “I think now is the time for the new characters that have been introduced to the story to take the helm, mainly Bradley James, who will be the next lead.”
