Universal is hoping that the Fifty Shades Of Grey phenomenon won’t have run its course by the time its adaptation hits cinemas February 2015. To help keep up the interest, they’ve released the first poster for the movie, featuring hunky Jamie Dornan standing with his back to us.

The movie follows 27-year-old billionaire Christian Grey (Dornan) and his S&M filled affair with young college student Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson). Jennifer Ehle, Victor Rasuk, Eloise Mumford and Max Martini also star. Sam Taylor-Johnson is directing from a script by Kelly Marcel, Patrick Marber and Mark Bomback.

It’s due out February 13th 2015.

First Pics Of Sexy Jamie Dornan For Fifty Shades Of Grey, As The Film’s Release Gets Delayed

November 13, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

fifty-shades-ew-pic1A few hours ago it was announced that Universal has decided to delay the release of Fifty Shades Of Grey, and around the same time the first pics of Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson that were taken for the movie arrived, via EW.

The movie was due for release August 2014, however Universal has now announced it’ll be coming February 13th, 2015 instead – it’ll certainly make a different sort of Valentine’s movie. The reason for the delay is due to the ever shrinking production schedule. Things were already tight before Charlie Hunnam left the lead role of Christian Grey, causing a rush to find a replacement. That meant a delay in the shoot, and even less time to get it ready.

It also moves Fifty Shades away from the heavy competition of Marvel’s Guardians Of The Galaxy and the 2014 Soccer World Cup. Instead it’ll get a prime President’s Day weekend debut in the US.

The new pics are pretty nice too, although there’s little hint of the BDSM the book is famous for.

Victor Rasuk Will Be Jamie Dornan’s Love Rival In Fifty Shades of Grey

October 31, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Victor-RasukWith the jump from Charlie Hunnam to Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey in the film version of Fifty Shades Of Grey, shooting has had to be pushed back a few weeks until early December. That’s partly so they have more time to fill out the rest of the cast.

Now Victor Rasuk has become the latest to join the Fifty Shades of Grey cast, according to Deadline, signing on to play college student Jose, who ends up being Christian’s love rival.

In E.L. James novel, Jose is an amateur photographer, classmate and close friend of Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson). He’s keen to take their relationship to the next level. However, he finds himself competing for her affections with young billionaire Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan), who draws Anastasia in with his twisted S&M games.

Jennifer Ehle is set to play Anastasia’s mother, with Luke Grimes as Christian’s brother, Elliot. Sam Taylor-Johnson is directing from an adapted screenplay by Kelly Marcel, Patrick Marber and Mark Bomback. It’ll be in cinemas next August.

Hottie Luke Grimes Joins Fifty Shades of Grey

October 26, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Luke-GrimesNow that Jamie Dornan has stepped into the role of Christian Grey, after it was vacated by Charlie Hunnam, Universal and director Sam Taylor-Johnson are rushing to fill out the rest of the Fifty Shades Of Grey cast. They’ve now signed Luke Grimes as Christian’s brother, Elliot, according to Variety.

Dakota Johnson is set to play Anastasia Steele, a young college student who strikes up a steamy, S&M filled affair with 27-year-old billionaire Christian Grey. Jennifer Ehle is also attached as Anastasia’s mother, Carla.

Variety notes that there are still key supporting roles to be cast, such as Anastasia’s roommate and Christian’s bodyguard, which have the potential to be break-out roles for any young actor.

Grimes is known for playing Ryan in TV’s Brothers & Sisters, and has also appeared in All The Boys Love Mandy Lane (which was his debut), Taken 2 and Season 6 of True Blood. He’ll have a big summer 2014, because as well as Fifty Shades, he’s also due to appear in Transformers: Age of Extinction.

Sam Taylor-Johnson is directing from a screenplay by Kelly Marcel, which is being polished by Patrick Marber. Production starts next month in Vancouver.

Crush Of The Day: Jamie Dornan Up For Fifty Shades Of Grey, But Just How Sexy Is He?

October 24, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Jamie-Dornan-slide
Since Charlie Hunnam exited Fifty Shades of Grey, Universal has been scrambling to find a replacement to play Christian Grey, with the likes of Alexander Skargaard, Francois Arnaud, Billy Magnussen & Luke Bracey in contention. Now the role has gone to Jamie Dornan, according to Variety.

Belfast born Dornan is a former model turned actor, who’s appeared in Marie Antoinette and Shadows In The Run, but gained many more fans as Sheriff Graham in TV’s Once Upon A Time. During his modelling career he certainly wasn’t averse to showing off his body, as you can see below. He’s certainly gonna make a sexy Christian Grey.

He will now play the highly coveted role of a young billionaire who gets into a kinky S&M filled relationship with Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson). Sam Taylor-Wood is set to direct, with filming kicking off next month, for a summer 2014 release. [Read more…]

Francois Arnaud, Billy Magnussen & Luke Bracey May Find Fifty Shades Of Grey

October 19, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

billy-magnussenWith Charlie Hunnam out, Universal are scrabbling to find a replacement who’s not only hot enough but ready and willing to get S&M steamy when cameras start rolling in a few year’s time.

Alexander Skarsgard, Christian Cooke and Jamie Dornan (The Fall) have already been rumoured as replacements, and now E! adds in Billy Magnussen and Luke Bracey, while JustJared says Francois Arnaud is in the mix.

None of the new names are strangers to nudity, as Magnussen spent most of his time on stage in the play ‘Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike’ in his underpants, while Luke Bracey spent a lot of time with his shirt off in the Aussie soap Home And Away.  Arnaud meanwhile has been seen getting sexy in the Borgias (and going gay in I Killed My Mother).

Take a look at pics of all three below, and see which you’d prefer as the billionaire Christian Grey, who gets into a kinky relationship with the young Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson).

Alexander Skarsgard & Jamie Dornan On The Fifty Shades Of Grey Shortlist

October 15, 2013 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

alexander-skarsgard06It’s only a few days since Charlie Hunnam dropped out of playing Christian Grey in the movie adaptation of the sexy best-seller Fifty Shades Of Grey. However, with an August 2014 release date, they need to find a replacement asap. THR suggests a shortlist has been drawn up, with Alexander Skarsgard (True Blood) and Jamie Dornan (The Fall) two of the top contenders for the coveted role.

Universal Pictures is also returning to its earlier list of frontrunners, such as Theo James (Divergent) and Christian Cooke (Magic City). Garrett Hedlund had been in contention, but he is currently shooting Angelina Jolie’s Unbroken, so he is no longer available.

The studio has also hired Patrick Marber to perform a polish of the screenplay, based on Kelly Marcel’s drafts. Marber previously wrote the likes of Closer and Notes on a Scandal.

With shooting due to kick off in a few weeks time, expect to hear who has the role very role.
