Amidst unrelenting dating rumors that hound Shailene Woodley and Theo James, the "Divergent" stars have over and over again stated that they are just good friends and that they enjoy working with each other. Theo James and his girlfriend for three years, Ruth Kearney, have been rumored to have ended their relationship ever since Shailene Woodley and Theo James started promoting the Sci-fi film.
Fans observed the remarkable chemistry between the two as they openly complimented each other during interviews and revealed personal observations about each other's habits. However, the pair loyally denied that they are dating, even though rumors started sparking again when the duo was spotted at Comic-con.
Shailene Woodley and Theo James were at the San Diego convention last week to talk about the upcoming sequel to "Divergent," entitled "Insurgent" and to promote the home entertainment release of "Divergent," which will be available on DVD/ Blu-ray on Aug. 5. At panel, Shailene Woodley said that she preferred to be seen onscreen with her pixie haircut rather than wear a wig for the sequel.
"I talked to the director [Robert Shwentke] because I didn't want to wear a wig. I think wigs look wiggy, especially in an action movie. We're running so much and doing so much, I think, technically, a wig would have looked quite [expletive]. I think it's cool to have a young heroine with short hair," said the actress.
Theo James comments on Shailene Woodley's hairstyle, "When I'm looking at Shai on screen, now you get a character progression in a visual way," "There are a maturity and a difference between the characters here and in the first movie."
They are both currently filming "Insurgent" alone with other cast members Kate Winslet, Zoey Kravitz, and Ansel Elgort. The movie is set to be released on March 20, 2015.
