Shailene Woodley has denied rumours that she is dating Ansel Elgort.

The 22-year-old actress - who starred opposite 20-year-old Ansel in 'The Fault In Our Stars' - has insisted that the pair have no intentions to start dating and their friendship is entirely platonic.

Speaking at a conference for Deadline's 'The Contenders' last night (01.11.14), she said: "We went from brother and sister to lovers and now we're back in the brother-sister game."

The pair - who played loved-up teenagers Hazel and Augustus in the romantic drama - won an award for the 'Best On-Screen Couple' at the Young Hollywood Awards earlier this year.

Shailene credits their chemistry to their long-time work relationship.

She recently said: "It definitely made things easier. I mean, we already knew each other; we were already comfortable around each other.

"And we already loved each other and had a deep sense of admiration for the other. Which I think translated into our performances."

Ansel added: "We are pretty tight. I like working with her a lot. She's really good. She's a really, really good actress. She's a really nice girl - really genuine."
