Shailene Woodley shared a few intimate scenes with her Divergent co-star and love interest Theo James. But an unexpected turn of events led to the scene being more embarrassing than it should’ve been for James.

Woodley was already cast in Divergent by the time a search was being done for her potential love interest in the film. Although Woodley’s casting was considered a no-brainer, hiring her co-star proved to be much more challenging. Especially when Woodley would often outperform the other actors who she screened with by a long shot.
“We were seeing all of the young stars in town, and as we brought each of these guys in to read with Shailene, she blew them away. She made them seem weak,” Divergent director Neil Burger once said according to Bustle.
