Kate Winslet - Divergent Thread #1: We can't wait to see Kate as the villain

Welcome to the first Divergent thread!

Quote:

A good portion of USA Today’s look at Winslet as Jeanine focuses on the fact that the actress is pregnant with her third child. In some scenes, she reportedly uses a suitcase to hide her baby bump.

According to the paper, “The pregnancy helped maintain the intimidation factor, since Winslet came into the shoot late. She used that distance from her co-stars to her advantage by keeping herself slightly aloof initially.

“I wanted to break it and say, ‘It’s OK, I’m really fun. I promise,’” she says. “But I thought, just for today, I’d let them think that I am a complete bitch.”

Winslet looks great as Jeanine and is very close to how this writer pictured her while reading Veronica Roth’s series. She has a fierce, sharp look to her that came across in the book.

The Divergent movie has now wrapped filming, and part of the cast will head to San Diego Comic-Con this Thursday to meet fans and unveil the first footage. We will be on hand to cover the event and conduct interviews with some Dauntless initiates.
