'The Divergent Series: Insurgent' trailer reveals a major action film

The Divergent Series can be a little impenetrable at first due to the amount of factions and characters involved; and for those unaware that Matrix-like simulations are a major part of the story, the recent teaser trailer for Insurgent was probably very confusing. The first full-length trailer offers a slightly clearer picture, as Jeanine is shown testing “Divergents” like Tris (people with more than one personality trait) in order to unlock some kind of magical box. Insurgent is directed by Robert Schwentke. The supporting cast includes Theo James as broody love interest Four, Kate Winslet as the big baddie Jeanine, Jai Courtney as Jeanine's lackey Eric, and Miles Teller, Ansel Elgort, Zoë Kravitz and Ray Stevenson as Tris' fellow Dauntless rebels. Veronica Roth's book series has a large enough fanbase for Insurgent to draw a respectable audience, and even for those who haven't read the books it looks like there will be an entertaining blend of action and romance. Insurgent is slated for release on March 20, 2015.

 

Jessica Alba doesn't care for fame

Actress Jessica Alba says she doesn't care about her celebrity status. The 33-year-old, who also runs her own eco-friendly business The Honest Company, says she wouldn't mind if her celebrity status was ripped away from her one day because she believes she transformed into the person she's meant to be when she became a mother six years ago, reports contactmusic.com. She said: "Living in LA, everyone likes to mould you and change you. I don't care about fame, I don't care about being a celebrity. "I know that's part of the job, but I don't feed into anyone's ideas of who I should be. When I became a mum, I finally became the person I am, that I always should have been." She has daughters Honor, 6, and Haven, 3, with husband Cash Warren.
