With the release of Divergent this weekend, its sequel, Insurgent, has been greenlit (officially).
“We’re confident that ‘Divergent’ is on its way to becoming another important franchise for us, and we have just greenlit the second film, ‘Insurgent,’” said Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer.
The films are based on the books in Veronica Roth’s best selling trilogy about Tris, a 16-year-old living in a dystopia who does not fit into any one of the society’s five factions.
Though Divergent was filmed in Chicago, where the stories are set, Insurgent and Allegiant will be primarily shot in Atlanta beginning in May.
Insurgent will hit theaters on March 20, 2015. The release date for Allegiant is March 18, 2016.

I really want to go to the set of this. Will be glued to this site so I can plan a trip there to see it being filmed!!
do you know if they will be filming in Chicago?
possibly but majority of filming will be in Atlanta. If they do shoot in Chicago it will be very short shoot.
Is that the crew I’ve seen over by east Decatur?
I’m not sure I don’t think they’ve actually started filming yet, I’ll try to find out what it is
do you know where the studio is? that would be sweet to take a trip and see them filming!?
Amstel ephors put on his Instagram a picture of a building and said insurgent films starting so I don’t know
