Actress Shailene Woodley, the star of the first three "Divergent" films, says she is not interested in doing the TV version of the popular sci-fi mystery.
The 24-year-old star revealed that she disliked the idea of turning the film series into a television show as it is not what she signed up for, reported Female First.
"Last I heard, they were trying to make it into a television show. I didn't sign up to be in a television show.
"Out of respect to the studio and everyone in involved, they may have changed their mind and may be doing something different, but I'm not necessarily interested in doing a television show," she said.
It was previously reported that Lionsgate is planning to forgo the theatrical release for the final post-Apocalypse drama after "Allegiant", the third movie in the series, did not fare well at the box office.
