The Divergent Series: Insurgent teaser trailer shows a mind-bending reality in which Tris’s mom appears to be back from the dead.

‘Insurgent’ Trailer

Shailene Woodley stars in the Insurgent trailer as Tris, sporting a shorter haircut and an all-business black ensemble. Making her way through the wasteland of the once idyllic Chicago she formerly called home, she spots her mother Natalie (Ashley Judd), whom she thought was dead. Right when they’re about to stage a reunion, Natalie gets swallowed in flames and retreats into her home, screaming, “Tris, help me!”

Tris shouts, “Mom!” and begins a series of gravity-defying feats to chase after her mother in the house that’s fast floating out of her reach. When she gets to the house, it explodes and Natalie nearly falls off the ledge into infinity before Tris reaches for her hand and pulls her into an abandoned skyscraper.

“This spring… the world… will never… be the same,” read slides throughout the trailer. The trailer description reads, “Defy reality, seek the truth.”

In addition to Woodley, Insurgent will star Theo James, Ansel Elgort, Miles Teller, Naomi Watts, Maggie Q, Kate Winslet, Jai Courtney and Zoë Kravitz.

Insurgent is slated to hit theaters March 20, 2015.
