Lionsgate CEO John Feltheimer announced the details on the film's trailer at a conference for the company's revenues for the first quarter of 2015.
"With the first "Insurgent" trailer slated to debut with the release of "Mockingjay" in November, skyrocketing book sales, a stellar home entertainment launch and stars Shailene Woodley, Theo James and Ansel Elgort generating ever-increasing online buzz, I think you can understand why we believe that the "Divergent" series is becoming very special," Feltheimer said.
"Divergent", the first movie of the series, premiered earlier this year and raked in over $270 million at the world box office.
The last book in the Veronica Roth's trilogy, "Allegiant", will be broken down into two films and are expected to premiere in March 2016 and March 2017.
The company's CEO also suggested that Lionsgate may be creating more "Divergent" movies after "Allegiant", mentioning Roth's short stories, "Four: A Divergent Collection" as the basis for such potential films. This spin-off book revolves around the account of 16-year-old Tobias "Four" Eaton and backstory as a Dauntless initiate.
When asked about "Insurgent", Feltheimer stated how themes of love, trust and betrayal will revolve around the characters which viewers "have not seen in films of this nature before."
Actor Ansel Elgort also promised that the movie will be bigger but darker. "It is like Divergent but a little bit darker and less introductory," Elgort said in an interview with Hollywood Life. "It is more about the characters."
