'Insurgent' News: Ansel Elgort Talks Hectic Schedule As He Heads From Toronto Film Festival To Atlanta Set Of 'Divergent' Sequel [VIDEO]
It is a crazy life right now for rising star Ansel Elgort as he had two hit movies earlier this year in Divergent and The Fault in Our Stars and now is leaving the Toronto Film Festival after talking up his latest movie that could be an Oscar hopeful. But is the hectic schedule getting to the actor? Maybe a little.

Elgort spoke with Teen Vogue as published by Entertainment Wise on Wednesday as the actor left Toronto after the premiere of director Jason Reitman's Men, Women, & Children where Elgort stars alongside Adam Sandler and Jennifer Garner.
The actor talked about the crazy schedule he had ahead of him, including making his way to the Insurgent set in Atlanta.
'Insurgent' Star Being Recast For Future Movies?
"I finished TFIOS in October 2013 and then I had about a month off and went right into filming Men, Women & Children," Elgort said.
"From there, I went into Divergent press and that movie came out in March. And then once that came out, I went into TFIOS press, and then I was in the middle of doing Insurgent as TFIOS was coming out. I'm finishing up Insurgent tomorrow for two days in Atlanta. They changed the location from Chicago to Atlanta."
Elgort also talked about the difference in being on the set of Men, Women, & Children and Divergent.
"We all have mutual respect for each other, which is nice. We all lived in the Marriott and we were all friends and hung out every day," Elgort said.
"There was no status thing whereas sometimes-and I'm not saying that in a movie like Insurgent there was a status thing-but a lot of the actors were established and had a lot of stuff they had to do. Shailene works every day and Theo James as well, so the kids don't hang out on set...they can't."
Elgort added that after finishing work on Insurgent, he would most likely head home and take a week away from everything to recharge.
Insurgent is set to open in theaters on March 20, 2015.
