A soft plateau to the Divergent film franchise gave way to finishing Ascendant as a TV movie, though stars like Shailene Woodley, Theo James and Miles Teller quickly offered their doubts on participating in a TV wrap-up.
Now, Woodley affirms the finality of her distance from the project, despite an upcoming TV role.
The film previously tapped director Lee Toland Krieger to make a June 2017 premiere, while Lionsgate has offered few updates on the proposed TV transition.
No fixed plans have come to light, but should any of the film stars sign on for the TV conclusion, or is Lionsgate better off recasting?
