ALLEGIANT TO BE SPILT INTO TWO FILMS

Lionsgate announced earlier today that they will be splitting Allegiant into two parts giving the audience a year wait between both movies, thus the never ending theme of splitting the last instalment into two films. Allegiant: Part One is expected to hit the big screen on March 18th 2016 release, whilst Allegiant: Part Two is expected to arrive on March 24th 2017.

“Veronica Roth brings her captivating story to a masterful conclusion in Allegiant, a rich, action-packed book with material that is ideally suited to two strong and fulfilling movies,” said Lionsgate Motion Picture Group Co-Chairmen Rob Friedman and Patrick Wachsberger in a statement. “The storytelling arc and world of the characters lend themselves perfectly to two films, a storytelling strategy that has worked very well for us on the two Twilight Breaking Dawn films and about which we’re tremendously enthusiastic for the two upcoming Mockingjay films of The Hunger Games franchise.”

What do you think of this new move? Like many of the fans will you be disappointed that you have to wait an extra year for the final conclusion?
