According to The Hollywood Reporter, Oscar-winning writer Akiva Goldman is working on the script for Insurgent, the sequel to the upcoming film Divergent. The script was originally worked on by Brian Duffield. Goldman has been called in to work on scripts in progress in the past. His own work includes the Oscar-winning screenplay for A Beautiful Mind, as well as The Da Vinci Code, Cinderella Man, I, Robot, and Angels & Demons. Insurgent is the second in a planned trilogy of films adapting Veronica Roth's Divergent young adult novels. The series stars Shailene Woodley as Beatrice Prior, a teenager with a special mind, who finds her life threatened when an authoritarian leader seeks to exterminate her kind in her effort to seize control of their divided society. Insurgent is still without a director, as Divergent director Neil Burger will not be returning for the sequel. Divergent will be released in theaters March 21, 2014. Insurgent will follow on March 20, 2015.
