This news reportedly upset its star Theo James and Shailene Woodley, even Miles Teller and other cast members. As a result, the original cast reportedly backed out from the project.
On the other hand, there are also rumors that the reason behind the cancellation is due to Shailene Woodley and Theo James feud. GameNGuide reports that the onscreen lovers allegedly had a fight because of Ruth Kearney. The actor's fiance is rumored to be so upset with the closeness of the two stars and is now begging the actor to back out and focus on the preparation of their wedding.
