NEWS RELEASE
MICHAEL DE LUCA AND DANA BRUNETTI TO PRODUCE UNIVERSAL PICTURES AND FOCUS FEATURES’ FILM ADAPTATION OF THE #1 BESTSELLING BOOK “FIFTY SHADES OF GREY”
LOS ANGELES, CA, July 10, 2012—Universal Pictures and Focus Features today announced that veteran producers Michael De Luca and Dana Brunetti will produce Fifty Shades of Grey. De Luca and Brunetti will produce the film based on E L James’ #1 Bestselling book alongside James. The announcement was made by Universal Pictures Co-Chairman, Donna Langley and Focus Features’ Chief Executive Officer, James Schamus.
In March, Universal Pictures and Focus Features announced the acquisition of rights to the entire Fifty ShadesTrilogy with Focus Features marketing and distributing the first film in partnership with Universal. To date, Vintage Books has sold 31 million e-book and print copies of the trilogy in English-language markets worldwide. In the U.S. alone, the “Fifty Shades” trilogy has sold over 20 million copies in e-book and print making it one of the fastest selling book series ever.
“At its core, Fifty Shades of Grey is a complex love story, requiring a delicate and sophisticated hand to bring it to the big screen,” said Langley. “Mike and Dana’s credits more than exemplify what we need in creative partners and we’re glad to have them as part of our team.”
“Michael De Luca is a dream producer, whose combination of vision, taste and fearlessness is the perfect match forFifty Shades of Grey,” said Schamus.
As an award-winning producer, De Luca has made his mark on some of the most critically-acclaimed films of the last few years including 2011’s Best Picture nominee Moneyball starring Brad Pitt as Oakland A’s former general manager, Billy Beane. Brunetti and De Luca served together as producers with Scott Rudin and Cean Chaffin on The Social Network which earned critical accolades, including an Academy Award® nomination for Best Picture. Brunetti and De Luca are collaborating with Scott Rudin on the upcoming Tom Hanks’ film Captain Phillips, the true story of a cargo ship captain held hostage by Somali pirates and rescued by Navy SEALs. Other film credits for De Luca include I Am Sam, Blow, Magnolia, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, Wag the Dog, American History X and Boogie Nights. Additional film credits for Brunetti include Casino Jack, 21, Fanboys, Beyond The Sea and Safe.
“I am thrilled that Mike has joined Team Fifty,” said E L James. “He brings a passion for and in-depth understanding of the characters and story, and a wealth of experience in making quality films.”
“Dana and I are both grateful and honored to be invited to join this team,” said De Luca. “We deeply respect and admire the kinds of films Donna, James and Jeb have been responsible for and are very excited to be joining Erika in a collaboration to bring her vision of this once in a lifetime, provocative and resonant love story to the screen.”
“Fifty Shades of Grey” follows the relationship of 27-year-old billionaire Christian Grey and college student Anastasia Steele. Subsequent novels in the series, “Fifty Shades Darker” (September 2011) and “Fifty Shades Freed” (January 2012) explore the couple’s deepening relationship.

Defiantly IAN SOMERHALDER from vampire diaries he is sooooo freaking Hott with them eyes. Just hope the movie does the book justice.can’t edit for another book or:-)
yes, IAM SOMERHAULDER is cute, hot and definitely CHRISTIAN GREY Figure. hihi
i totally agree!!!
I totally agree!. My first choice… Ian somerhalder plzzz!
I am sooo excited that they are going to make a movie
I hope the casting director will stick close to the description of the characters. Example: Christian has “unruly dark copper color hair” and his body is like a “Greek God”. I see some people have expressed some young actors (yes, the are hot!) but I would like to see an unknown, up-coming actor to play Christian. I just cannot see Ryan Gosling or Ian Somerhalder as Christian (sorry).
I agree with you,, take some time and check out Colin Egglesfield.. and tell me what u think??
I think Colin would be great if they can get the hair color right and his hair long enough. I picture Matthew McConaughey or someone like that. He has to have the copper hair. I think a new and upcoming would be great. Age has to be right too.
I was actually picturing Mathew McConaughey as I was reading the first book. There is something about Mathews expressions that make me feel the same way Ana does. But I am leaning more towards Ian Somerhalder because he is so damn hot. Vamipre Diary for me was like reading these books. How he moves and his looks made we want to climb the wall.
BRAVO!!!! I agree 100%!!!
i am so thrilled that fifty shades is going to be a film and i suggest that Alexander Skarsgård should play christian grey becuase them trousers hang off his hips perfectly, also he is tall and sexy and has great facial expressions. after reading fifty shades he just fits christians character SO MUCH. if you dont know who this is watch some true blood and the new advert his in … http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Swh3N1LTXZA he just graps that chin perfectly yet again!!
Absolutely 150% agree. As far as my “personal” heart-throb goes, it is not Alexander Skarsgard BUT!!! He is so perfect for the role, down to being just straight out arrogant, sooo super sweet and loving to OMG sexy as all heck!! And the body?? That’s a double OMGOSSSHHHH and he’s big (tall – manyly)and what he can do – I’ve been watching True Blood and I’ve definitely come around to appreciating every little piece of him – PERFECT for the role. Ryan Gosling – yes, handsome but as far as straight-up work it sex appeal – he’s “too” much of a young man – What I gather from from the books is that Christian Grey does for something for the libido of all ages of women. (Not Ryan – and he also has a beautiful body in every masculine way of beautiful – he just doesn’t have the vibe.)
I am so excited about the movies! My Christian Grey is William Levy.
Also, the perfect song for the 50 shades movies…..Kelly Clarkson’s song, “Dark Side”. If you haven’t heard it go to you tube or someplace and listen….It is PERFECT!!
Me too!!!! My Christian is William Levy!!! That’s all I picture. And my Ana is Minka Kelly.
I definitely agree on the song! I heard it after I’d read the books and thought exactly the same thing!
I am super excited about the possibility of a movie, I hope they are able to do it justice. I am a huge fan of the books, the storyline is amazing and I cannot wait to see it in motion picture! Congratulaions EL James
If I had a vote: Ian Somerhalder, or Liam Hemdsworth as Christian and Lucy Hale or Nina Dobrev
i have never read a book as googd as these, just not been able to put them down,and i want more!!!!!!and i can not wait for the flim.please hurry and keep wrighting dont leave us hanging i just could not do that.i can not say how its made me feel readind a book like this i lovelove itxx
I do hope that Ian Somerhalder will be Christian Grey! After all, he’s been very vocal about how much he want to have that role. Lots of fans will be thrilled!
Please do separate the trilogy. And please, please, please, when they do the movie, I really hope that they will give justice to it… Anyway, I’m looking forward to this movie!
I think this is great. I really can not wait for the moive(s) to come out. I have read the book six times in a row. When I first started reading the book, Alexander Skarsgard pictured in my head. I still see him as Christian, (even when watching trueblood). I know that we can not pick the actors. Some of us just want to help. Alexander Skarsgard fits the part as if he was born to play it. Like you wrote it for him. (I just really hope you give him the chance). E.L.James thank you for writting such great books. I look forward to more of the Fifty Shades.(I like the idea of doing it in Christian way also).
I am with you all the way on Alexander Skarsgard. He’s the only one I can see doing Christian Grey any justice at all.
All I know is I would be pretty disappointed if some actor from the CW got the part. Oy. No offense to anyone, just my opinion.
I agree completely!! I am ALL for Alexander Skarsgard and just like you, I also invisioned Alex as Christian Grey! I think that his role in true blood shows us how talented and what a perfect fit he would be as Christian Grey!!
Even though he doesn’t have the tall/dark looks, the delicate acting ability required is completely fulfilled, in my opinion, by actor Matt Czuchry (The Good Wife series actor, Cary). He’s got that stillness, a real measuring type of personality that would absolutely NAIL Christian’s character.
I think Alex Pettyfer as Christian and Shenae Grimes or Jessica Stroup as Ana. So very excited about this movie!!
I love 50 Shades and am very excited about the movie. My Christian is Dustin Clare!! He is ripped and already knows how to handle the tasks at hand!!
I am so excited! I loved the books. The movie is going to make it or break it depending on who is casted to play christian and Ana. My vote goes to Emmy Rossum and Chris Hemsworth.
I suggest not rushing through the details if you need many parts to complete the passion than by all means do it! Do not rush it to make it fit into a 2 hour film…
Wonderful!!! There is no one better to play Christian Grey than TOM HIDDLESTON,TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON, TOM HIDDLESTON!!!!!!!!!!!! He is tall, looks sexy with black hair and he already works the grey eyes. I hope you consider him for the role.
I can picture him as Christan Grey as well!!! He just have to buff up a bit
This film will be very delicate to make. Obviously we want it on the big screen but you can’t put pornography on the big screen. Just reading the books the imagery is so intense that you can visualize everything, bringing that imagery to the big screen is a dangerous and delicate task. I look forward to the artistic nature of what will come from the creative minds behind this film.
Everyone has an idea for the actors – I know the characters are young in the books, but the readership is so much older (as in 30s and 40s), I hope the actors aren’t too “kid-like.”
But my suggestion is not the actors, mine is for director: Ang Lee. He would be able to pull it off. In the hands of the wrong director, the whole thing might come off as cheesy – or even a joke – which is my fear (and, I suppose, yours too!) Thanks.
Good point! Definietly hope it has mature not kid-like actors since yes, it is more of an adult read.
Brilliant trilogy, I’m so excited about the film, hope its as good as the book.
Henry Cavill for Christian and Mia Wasikowska for Ana
I cannot wait for this movie. My first choice for Christian would be Ryan Gosling. But I also would not mind Chris Pine or Taylor Kitsch. As Ana the only I can picture is Emilia Clark from Game of Thornes.
Looking forward to the movie, however I would much rather have more books! I can’t wait until you realase more books! Please please more books!
So excited the film is finally in the works! My vote is Ian Somerhalder as Christian and Shelly Hennig as Anastasia. All the rest I could care less.
Congratulations! I’m so excited for the movies! I wasn’t ready for it to end and am finding myself going through withdrawals…I think I’ll re-read them. Such a beautiful, sexy story. Picking actors will be key for this story; my Christian would be something like Ryan Goslin but please no Twilight or Disney actors.I’m hoping the trilogy will continue….Thank you E.L. for such a great story.
Thay have to find a good looking man to play Christian, Ryan does not fit the bill
Can’t wait for the Movie.. This will be great.. I vote for IAN SOMERHALDER for C-Grey.. The eyes. .the Voice.. Plus. .he has played roles similar..
Oooh….I thina IAN S. would be perfect!! Yes, the eyes fit an ideal Christian.
Agreed! Ryan is a definite no for me. He’s not tall or imposing enough and would not come across as a dominant figure.
Don’t think Ryan would work for me. HENRY CAVILL,he is really hot!
DEREK THELER!
I am so excited on making this film, like everyone else I was addited to the books and trying to start another book you are still involved with The Shades, books you couldn’t put down. Any idea when the movie would be out? l’ll be waiting..sk
IM so xcited.. As Christian I believe IAN SOMERHALDER and as Anna I believe ALEXIS BLEDEL.. I cant wait.. Im a huge FAN..
I completley agree the parts were made for them, please Ian Somehalder and Alexis Bledel, from a huge fan too
i am trilled that they are finally making a movie but i and many of my friend’s would love to see IAN SOMERHALDER as CHRISTIAN GREY .
I am so excited for these movies! I am obsessed with the books and am thrilled that we are going to get more! I am up and down with who I think should play Christian Grey. However, I think I should be Ana Steele! Haha.. jk!
I would love for non-mainstream actors to play the roles of Christian and Ana. You should seriously consider PETER PORTE as Christian. He was deliciously creative with his recent role as a devilish character who could charm the pants off of anyone with his smile!
Peter Porte would make a great Christian, but I vote for Joe Manganiello (Alcide from True Blood). I think he would be AWESOME as Christian.
For Ana, I think Natalie Portman would be a good choice.
I would just like to recommend Olivia Thirlby for the role of Ana. This is a girl who is beautiful without being overly beautiful which I think represents Ana so well. Just a thought.
Congratulations, such exciting news! I just can’t wait, I’m finding myself going through withdrawals! This story is just brilliant, sexy and well done. Casting will be top key as long it’s it’s not Twilight or Disney stars. However, Ryan Goslin would make a great Christian. Thank you for such a great story.
Are they going to seperate the story into 3 movies like the books? …..I hope so, if not that would be like squeezing Harry Potter into a couple of movies.
Agree. I’d like to see them seperate. There’s so much to the story I’d hate to see so much left out if it’s crammed in one.
I honestly think they will need to creep into the 2nd book for the ending to the first film. The first film would need to end with them getting back together. I think quite a bit can be cut out of 50 Shades of Grey, as a majority of the character development and arc take place in Darker and Freed.
I agree! If not all three at least 2 movies
Agreed! There is too much in each book to put into just one movie!
This is great news, glad to hear that such experienced and great producers have signed on. I think it sets a great start to the movies that it will have a great cast and crew, hopefully they will do as good a job with past movies and do justice to Christian and Ana.
So excited for this. I am getting ready to read this series for a second time. It is fantastic! I hope Alexander Skarsgard is cast for Christian. He would be perfect!
I agree with this Full heartedly. Alexander Skarsgard is my Christian. I do not think any one else could do the part justice.
personally i think ian somerhalder and emma stone would be perfect!
but i really really hope that the books will turn into a saga i loved it so much i didnt want it to end ive read all 3books twice and i still want more!
I have started reading the trilogy again for the second time as well. God how I miss that man. LOL But, I do have to admit, I think Alex Pettyfer would make a better Christian.
Alexander Skarsgard all the way for me too! The producers have such a huge task on their shoulders making sure that the right person is picked for this role!
I think Mr Grey should be played by Jonathan ryhs Meyers. I loved the first book, on to the second one now. I actually was emotional reading the last page of the first book. Romance is so very complicated and I think the book captures this well. Brilliant!
EXCITED ! I have nearly finished the last book (sob) and i am definately hooked on the story line i wish EL James will carry on the story pls pls pls would love another load of trilogies with ana and grey what happens next etc or what ever happens to each of them in the future it is so gripping the story line its all i think about lol but the film would be great i just hope they cast the right characters and not 2 jumped up idiots thinking they exactly what christian looks like and ana too they must agree on what the public think on us who have read the story and whom we imagine the 2 love birds look like – ohhh excited still hehe
YES!! I would love for the trilogy to continue! I would love to read more about after.
I need more books!
I can’t wait for more books! I hope she writes one soon!
I think EL James should write another trilogy, from the point of view of Christian. Wouldn’t that be a fun read?
i would love to hear christian’s point of view
i loved the end of the third book about his perspective
Point of view from Chrisian….perfection.
I’m dying to see if she continues with that teaser at the end. A series from his pov but starting as a child with his bio mom then touching on the most important parts of his life then finally starting when he meets Ana and continuing all the way from there. Would LOVE to read that!!
I am hanging by a thread waiting on books from Christian’s perspective!!!!!
Christian’s point of view would be astronomical!!!!!!
I so agree. She should write another trilogy from Christian’s POV. I was very sad when the book ended with his POV just before the photo shoot. I can’t get enough of this story. I hope she keeps writing.
i agree, i think that wouid be really good, i also loved the end of the 3rd book when we heard what christian thought when he was interviewing ana, it really made me giggle, xxxx PLS PLS PLS write some more books about christian an ana xxxxx
That would be AWESOME!!!! You never know what Christian is thinking.
I would love to keep reading about them to. Can not wait
yes. would love to read the entire series again from christian’s pov as well.
I am excited for this as well! I am only 1/2 way through the 2nd book, but have already in my mind cast the roles
I see Ryan Gosling as Christian, maybe Natalie Portman as Ana (although Emily Browning would be good too!). ..definately see Cate Blanchett as Mrs. Robinson LOL Maybe Helen Mirren as Dr. Trevalyn Grey? See. …I am way obsessed.
Whoever is cast, I hope they do the characters justice!
I am kinda excited but kinda apprehensive. There is no way the movie can stick to the book and. I love the kinkiness of the book but am afraid the movie will have to tame it down for the silver screen.
Anyway my choices for any are a little unconventional but I love them
I like Lyndsy Fonseca (she plays Alex on Nikita). I think She would make a really cute Ana.
Or
I really think Zooey Deschanel. I’m sure most would think it’s a weird choice but I think she is cute but can be sexy.
Fantastic news! Wonderful producers! So far I haven’t been too thrilled with any of the suggested actors. Maybe they are just too perfect in my head.
Congrats!
I can’t wait! I just wish there were more books I could read by james until these movies come out! Such a great trilogy.
Great news
And yeah… Alex Pettyfer as Christian *dies*
That would just be… Gah…
I too am so excited for the movie. I am addicted to Fifty Shades. Can’t quite decide who could play Christian but Emma Stone is definitely Ana.
I agree with Emma Stone being Ana!!! She is the first person who came to mind
LOVE Emma Stone as Ana it’s PERFECT! i can also see Anna Kendrick no doubt. And honestly, I could totally see Patrick Jane as Christian. Well, he’s my Christian…
I love Patrick Jane…to me he might be a little old for the part but I could picture him doing a good job!
Rebecca, I googled Benedict Cummberbatch and he doesnt seem as “Strikingly Handsome” as Christian is supposed to be. He has some good looks alright but Christian is supposed to be be effortlessly and immediately handsome. Like you said, can’t please everyone. I can wait for the movie
I can completely understand where you are coming from. I couldn’t get his voice out of my head during all three novels. Just for fun, if you have the time, check out this PBS interview for Sherlock.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MltF5YNPac
I can’t wait for the movie!! I think that Channing Tatum or Ryan Gosling should play Christian and Katie Cassidy should be Ana!!
I also see Ryan Gosling as Grey. . .I think he could do the dark and brooding thing well
he may be able to pull off dark and bruding but i just dont think he is sexy enough to play Christian. I think Ian Somerhalder is the best man for this roll
Gosling is my first pic it just came to me one day I think he can easly play the mood swings perfectly…… and I dont know if u agree but if jennifer lawrence could play nervous risky part I think she could fit for ana
I did not think of Katie Cassidy I like her
So Exciting!
Felicity Jones as Ana!
And the ever hot Chris Hemsworth for Christian Grey!
definately Chris Hemsworth!!!!!!!!
Totally agree with this! Chris Hemsworth is the total Christian Grey – second choice is Ian Somerhalder!
yesss about time someone agrees with me …..chris is GRAY height , body , that stern yet sexy and seducing voice, hair he IS GRAY
I really hope Alexander Skarsgard is cast…he is my Christian
I do so much agree with this he is mine all the way
I completely agree.
Finally!!! Someone with some sense!!! He is Christian grey. Tall, muscular, but more importantly he has the intensity and the vulnerability for the role. The only actor I have seen who has that physical grace, the charm, and above all, he commands the screen and can portray the sort of imperial and dominant attitude that is Christian Grey. Minor things like hair and eye color can easily be changed.
Alexander Skarsgard is about as perfect a Christian as you can get.
YES! YES! YES! Alexander Skarsgard is a MUST for this role. PLEASE do not cast Ryan Gosling or Channing Tatum or anyone with a Twilight connection. It is so important that this role appeals to the mature female as well as younger fans of the book, as I would imagine this is the stronger market in terms of book sales. As Rosalynh says, Alexander is tall and imposing with a good body, and would be able to portray all of the characteristics of Christian Grey. I don’t think he would be shy of the steamy scenes either! As for Anna… who cares really… it’s Alexander who I had in my head all the way!
YES!!
Alexander Skarsgard is the only actor I am aware of with the screen presence, acting abilities and physical charisma to play the extremely complex and intense Christian Grey!!!
Please EL James?? Please?? Watch him play Eric Northman and tell me I’m wrong.
Alexander Skarsgard – Absolutely perfect as Christian! Yes, please, EL James if you have not watched True Blood – Please do! And Fifty Shades as a HBO Series *drools* that would be amazing.
Wow, this is exciting news. I can hardly wait, altough I would rather have the energy of E.L James concentrated on rewriting the books in Christian’s pov.
Ian Somerhalder is way too old to play Christian the way I imagined him, although he is hot. My Mr. Grey would be Alex Skarsgard, although he is too old as well. I looked through most of the other suggestions here, too but I don’t see my Christian in them. I want to throw in a new name, like Alex, from True Blood: Ryan Kwanten. He looks like he could be 27, he got tousled hair, which can be dyed. He looks cute and sexy at the same time and I do not think Jason Stackhouse minds a sex scene or two. I mean considering some of his scenes in True Blood Season 1 … He did have sex with a woman who was suspended from the ceiling while watching vampire porn, altough Maudette Pickens was f*** ugly. I could see Ryan in the character. He could pull it off and outside of True Blood hardly anyone knows who he is.
I agree with Emily Browning as Ana. She is brown haired, cute and her face is 99% eyes. I can easily imagine her to be shy but also feisty.
I DEFINITELY agree with the idea of that delicious man to star as Christian
Im a big TrueBlood fan and honestly, Jason is my favourite character. I could definitely see him play ‘Fifty’. I also like the idea of Ryan Reynolds, he has experiance playing a serious role in Amityville Horror as well as a comedy role in The Proposal. If they choose the Actors badly, the movie will go horribly wrong. My ideal Anastasia would be Emmy Rossum, tho Emily Browning would be an excellent choice too.
Yes EMILY BROWNING for Ana…. she could definitely pull it off!!!!
OMG I SOOOO AGREE WITH THIS!! All my co-workers at work agree as well he would be PERFECT for it!! Good choice!!
i sooo agree you only have to see him as eric in true blood what a breath taking man mmmmm!yummy
Wow I was watching True Blood the other day and I was thinking Alex can be great as Christian the eyes the lips and the body OMG
i totally agree. i read the books before i watched true blood. i instantly imagined alexander skarsgard as christian. he was born for this part, 100%. his presence, voice, looks, body…its all there. E.L James, you need to watch true blood, its so similar to fifty shades
Please do not do as was done with Anne Rice’s Lestate books and choose actors to play these rolls just because they have a “big name’. Not many ‘big names’ could pull off truly being Mr. Grey and Ms. Steele or even Taylor and Ms. Jones. Just as Cruise & Pitt didn’t pull off Lestat or Louis – big names drew money, but did nothing for justice to the book or characters.
This is fantastic news!!!!
The excitement is starting to build as the foundations for the film are slowly being put down.
What a great choice for producers as well. I can see them doing a great job. Let’s hope we start to hear more news soon. xxx
such exciting news! i can not wait!
Guys, Alex Pettyfer is too young at 22. Remember, Christian is older than his years. I love the idea of Emmy Rossum as Ana.
I am so excited!
Alex Pettyfer <<< C.Grey
Emmy Rossum (age: 24)<<<<< Anna
please!!!
I totally agree with you. Alex Pettyfer as Christian and Emmy Rossum as Anna. Perfect as the characters described in the book.
I’m very excited about the movie. I really hope they make into three movies (maybe four) so they can capture all the details Ms. James put into the books.
Great writting E L James. I can’t wait to read more of your books. I’m very proud of you for a job well done on your first three books. Can’t wait to see what exciting books you release next.
I agree 100% with Emmy, but Alex Pettyfer (Christian is described dark, intense, powerful, disturbed…Alex doesn’t look at all like that…)
i also vote emily browning as ana steele as she has the same descriptio and innocent look about her
i think alex pettyfer should play christian grey he looks exactly how christian grey is described in the book
I think Alex Pettyfer would also be a great choice. I have a few I would like to see but he definitely would be a great pick.
Isnt Alex Pettyfer a little too young looking & too blond? Matt Bomer or Christian Bale (minus whiskers) are who I imagine when Im reading….
eww n thoses to are to old n ugly lol Taylor kitsch and or Ryan Gosling r my picks oh n Cam Gigandet cuz of his Christian Grey like swagg ….but for anna Jennifer Lawrence or Brittany Snow with brown hair would be awesome or Kristen Stewart!!
oh! Cam Gigandet for TAYLOR!!!!! ooooh yaaaa!!!!
I totally agree Christian Bale should play the part. As I was reading Fifty Shades I envisioned him. =)
you are so so right about that.
I totaly agree on you about Alex Pettyfer. I pictured him the entire time I read this. Such a perfact match. I was sad to finish and can’t wait to maybe read more from EL James.. I have to be honest I am not much of a reader.I have read maybe 4 books my whole life not counting these three and I really want to find more to read now. I read all three books 10 days and was dying for more. Excited about the movie and hopefully read more soon. Any suggestions?
You might enjoy On the Island, a new release. Not nearly as graphic as Fifty, but a very good read. Let me know if you like it.
Alex would be a perfect mr grey
I think it is brilliant that the project has a male/female team producing. Congrats on a great team. Good luck with the casting. There is no way of making everyone happy, my only hope is that the focus is on the acting. Looks come second for me. My Christian is Benedict Cumberbatch, his voice, stillness and emotional range is what keeps me from opening my mind to other possibilities. BUT I realize he will definitely not be everyone else’s Christian. So as I said, best of luck with the casting.
I am delighted about the movie and can not wait to see it!
I think the PERFECT actor for Christian is Taylor Kitsch. He has the body, the smoldering eyes that seem to always have some secret or playful mystery to them and his lips are perfect by your description in the book. Where can we go to vote!. Just watch an interview with him and you will see
))
Definately agree with Taylor Kitsch as Christian! He is the epitome of sexiness with a touch of mystery and danger. You can absolutely get lost in his eyes and his body can excite you beyond control…just as Christian’s does Ana.
I think he would be a great Mr. Grey as well!!!
I am not sure about Taylor. Would be interesting to see. Christain is such a complex guy, it’s gonna take a really good actor to be able to play all “fifty” Christians. I love Emma Stone but i do not think she would be a good Ana. I personally think Jennifer Lawernce would be a good choice for Ana.
Jennifer lawrence could be a great ana and I think ryan gosling could be a great christian I think he could do the ever chsnging mood swings and have the charm and the atittuud he is a great actor and that is what we need for christian
Yeah, Ryan Gosling is the best choice
My christian grey is Christian bale !!
He’s sooooo freaking hot and all !
CHRISTIAN BALE PLEASE!!
I completely agree with Ryan Gosling, He is absolutely heart stopping BEAUTIFUL!! He is a great actor I know he would make an awesome Christian,
If not Ryan, my 2nd choice would Bradley Cooper. He is also a heart thorb.
I want to say Thank You to E.L. James, I oh so enjoyed these 3 books, I could not put them down. At the end of the 3rd book I was left wanting more. I love these Books!!
I think the Chris Hemsworth Should play Christian Grey. I am a HUGE fan of the books. There pages turners for sure I can’t seem to put them down. Iv read them over & over. I simply love them & I’m so excited for the movie whenever it comes out!
Most def COLIN EGGLESFIELD!! HE FITS CHRISTIAN PERFECTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didnt know who this guy colin was til I looked him up and OMG he probably would work.
It’s my first here,read the boks 2 times each and loved it and I too didn’t know that actor…THIS HIS CHIRSTIAN!!!!!!The eyes…
I agree! i also didnt know who Colin Egglesfield was, omg i think he will do so well playing Christian. I would like someone who is not a huge actor to play Christian, then you wont be thinking ‘ooo hes from vampire diaries his fangs might come out soon’ or something lol. My personal opinion. I hope they make a very good choice. But i believe no matter how good the movie is, the book will be better
I had to Google him, but so far he fits the bill compared to those rumored to be cast.
Yep! I agree he fits Christian with that look. Ha ha
Totally agree…also Eric Bana, even if he is not that young anymore…
YESSSS! He’s perfect. Not only his look, but his behavior as well-for the part. He IS Christian Grey!!! (saw him recently in “Something borrowed”)
needs to grow his hair a bit longer to completely fill the bill
I can not even wait until this movie is released. I have to agree with you on the eyes and all:)
Taylor is a good choice but i think Ian Somerhalder should also be in the running. Jennifer Lawrence could be the perfect Ana.
Ian is the perfect choice. Those eyes will get you every time!
Ian would be perfect for the role. He has the looks and is very capable of playing the mysterious Christian Grey! My first choice.
I agree I think Ian with his beautiful eyes would be the perfect Christian
Totally agree. Ian Somerhalder is the ONLY Christian Grey hands down. I have never seen his TV show but have seen him in interviews and in the fake trailers-he is perfect!!
I completely agree with you! Christian Grey needs to be great looking! Most of the book is about his looks… Matt Bomer is another choice, but I’m not sure if he can pull off the macho Christian aura. But Matt Bomer is the ultimate Christian Grey, looks and everything.
I was not a fan of Matt Bomer because of his possible sexualy orientation, but after watching the movie teaser on Youtube, he is PERFECT for Christial Grey. Ian too short! Christian is tall, it is stated enough times in the book. BUt still would like Amanda Seyfried for Ana!
I read all 3 books in 1 week, i just couldn’t put it down. When i 1st found out Christian was into S&M i was a little bleek but carried on reading cos the story was good, by the time i started book 2 i was totally in love with Christian Grey, and was feeling so sorry for him. I’m am so excited there’ll be a movie of the book,I just hope it does the book justice… I dont mind Matt Bomer, Ian Somerhalder or even Colin Egglesfield to play Christain Grey. But i would definitely go with Alexis Bledel as Anatasia as i think she has that whole innocent Virgin kind of look about her, she’d be great. I have decided to start reading the Trilogoy again cos my day just isn’t complete without reading about Mr Grey…. Oh and i must say i loved the last chapter of book 3 as told from Christian’s side. Well E.L.James so far you are the only author to get me to read a trilogy in 1 week, and have me start it all over again. The books have left me wishing that more men could be like Christian towards their girlfriends or wives ( minus the s&m tho lol). I’m referring the to the adoration and love he has for Ana. I love how it ended as well, a really beautiful story.I laughed and cried in this book and then when i finished it i balled my eyes out lol, because i was just so happy for the both of them.
I too as many it seems read all 3 bks in 1 week, finished last night. I am now in Christian Grey withdrawal & left wanting for more! Can’t wait for the movies, but sure hoping EL James will continue on w/this saga soon. However, based on her interview on Katie Couric’s show she has bks she plans to write 1st. Many want more of CG POV like @ the end & she claims it was the publishers that made her write this (not her idea). She said something like CG is a very complex character to write from his POV (no doubt) I gather she is not up for the challenge right now!!! We can only hope & pray that she will see the light!!!! LOL I felt it was the “Grandest of Love stories.” I think I will have to re-read the bks again. #2 was my favorite, than #1 & last, but not least #3. We all want a CHRISTIAN GREY!!!!
i agree with Alexis Bledel. But Henry Cavil will be perfect Christian.
I read the books in 1 week as well thats how good they where. I was also glad that they are making a movie out of it and I hope that Ian Somerhalder gets the part of Christian.
My granddaughter has to read them for her Phsyscalogy class in collage. She may be 19 but she is still a virgin and believes in staying that way till she gets married. She is not a sex crazed girl the books will make her blush.
I agree with you sis. I am not born reader but since I’ve read this book. wow!
Chandz you took the words right out of my mouth!! My thoughts exactly
Taylor Kitsch would be great, but i really think Christian Kane of Leverage would make the perfect Christian Grey. He has the complete package. Hair and eye color, rockin body and very, very sexy!
everyone should take a look online at the images of Christian Kale. There’s one where is he wearing a suit, short hair, that you can see just falling in his eyes, as so often described in the books. OMG, very hot. would make the perfect Christian Grey
He would be perfect….he’s just so mysterious
I am so excited about the movie as well. Paul Walker will aslo be great to play as GREY.He has that sultry look and those magnificant “grey” eyes. Emma Stone will be perfect for ANA. sometimes i wish that this can turn into a series on HBO. this can easily be turned into 5-6 seasons. I’m just super hype about it!
I so agree on Emma Stone playing Ana!
so do i …. she is perfect
I agree that Emma Stone would play an amazing Ana…do not think Emma Stone or Jennifer Lawrence fit the descrition of Anna. I also think Ryan Gosling would be a great Christian and I believe Matt Bomer might pull it off well….Ryan’s acting ability could certainly pull all of 50′s personalities off well! It will be interesting to see who is cast!
I think that Alexander Skarsgård truly should be considered as Christian, even though he is blonde. He has this way with his eyes – he can express what he’s feeling with them and almost take you back to a moment in his life. It’s eerie and exquisite. If anyone has seen his character on True Blood, you can see how well he can portray the controlling, sexy, confident, and successful character he plays. And he is tall and hot! And whenever he has his shirt off, his pants hang on his hips in that gorgeous way that E.L. James describes on Christian! He is such a great actor; I have seen him in other roles as well. Check him out if you haven’t! I agree on Emma Stone and Jennifer Lawrence as good “Ana” choices. Jennifer looks more like I would picture Ana would look. Perhaps Natalie Portman as well. She is always a great actress.
I absolutely vote for Paul Walker!!!
I think Paul would be good in the role too.
Yes Paul Walker would make a great Christian Gray!!!!
Paul Walker isn’t a good enough actor to play Christian. He’s gorgeous and fun to watch but he dosen’t have the depth to play him.
I completely agree that Paul Walker is not a good enough actor for this role and think that Matt Bomer would make a wonderful Mr. Grey. The way he is in White Collar is just amazing. His eyes, his attitude, it’s so perfect. He would make a great Christian Grey. I am sure that the issue of casting Christian and Ana will be quite the challenge. I wish them the best of luck!
I would agree not Paul Walker. Christian Bale and Rachel McAdams get my vote.
All these people are too old, the characters are 27 and 21, he has to be gorgeouse and christian bale just isn’t, intense yes. Christian has to be tall and Ana has to be small.
exactly ..GRAY needs to have a great stern and strong presence a alomst george cluny type voice wit a very toned body and ofcouse great hair …..my vote is for chris hensworth hes the total package ,……voice , looks, height,and did i say he was hottttt?
as for ana i think she should be a new actress and this should be a break out role i just cant see any ladies in mind right now honestly if megan good was caucasian then she would be perfect she has that innocent look and voice about her….and yes i too read in a week lol i couldnt put the book down and the funniest thing was while on the train all you saw were women with their faces submerged in this book lol
loving the idea of it becoming a series, then it could continue forever.
I would have to agree, i just finished the books and I’m sitting here wanting more ,Is hoping to see more , more more,lol
When will the cast be announced?
I totally agree with aklug001 – ALEXANDER SKARSGARD all the way for the role of Christian Grey!!!! You are so right, it felt as if E L James envisioned Alexander as she wrote to describe Christian! After reading the trilogy, I can’t wait for this movie to come out – I will be there on OPENING NIGHT!!
Alexander is exactly who I was thinking of the whole time I was reading these books. I’m glad I wasn’t the only one.
ALEXANDER SKARSGARD IS CHRISTIAN GREY…any one who has seen him on True Blood knows this. He has the perfect Christian ATTITUDE, the perfect COPPER HAIR,SMOLDERING EYES and the body…Oh my how the jeans hang from his beautiful waist. I am a huge Ian Somerhalder fan also but all I could see reading the books was Alexander Skarsgard. I would love to see him get the part, I just dont think ANY ONE else could pull it off. And I have read all 3 books twice. Fifty Shades Darker 3 times. Thank you E.L. James for bringing us Christian Grey!!!
sorry, after reading the books, i don’t feel Alexander would be what i would envision as Christian Grey.
Absolutely!! Alex Skarsgard. He is yummy and could be the perfect Dom!
Alexander Skarsgard is too old to play Christian. I think the character really needs to be portrayed by somebody in their 20′s is close to it. We have to remember Christian is only in his 20′s even though he may act much older.
I disagree. Ian Somerhaulder should be Mr. Grey.
Yes!!! I agree!!
I think he might be good. He’s not well known and from what i’ve read, he seems like he could pull off the dark side of Christian. He defintely has the eyes!
OMG bring on Ian Somerhaulder he has the eyes and the attitude. He would make the BEST Mr. Grey.
Absolutely! Ian Somerhalder is smoldering which is what Christian is. The person who plays Christian needs to have immediate striking beauty which Ian has. Like the novel, when ladies see Ian, most would gape at him too. He’s perfect for the role with the piercing eyes, strong profile, and dark demeanor (that parallels Christian’s dark past and desires). He’s polished, young but not baby-face young, mature looking and believeable as a man who would live a BDSM lifestyle. Above all, Ian has what it takes to execute all of Christians expressions. His amazing eyes can suddenly become angry or soften to hold fear or burn with lust, his half smile that oozes ‘wicked thoughts’, his own natural ‘just-?&$@ed’ hair, his gorgeous smile, dark voice and there’s no need to talk about his body. This will be a hard choice for the casting crew as the role of a sexpert is a large one. As for Ana, my choice is Alexis Bledel. She’s naturally beautiful and would only need mascara and lip gloss like Ana, innocent looking, bookish, sexy and has the right enticing bottom lip. Alexis and Ian would make a beautiful couple on screen. I would be upset if Ian was not Christian. Good luck and can’t wait!
Absolutely, I just finished all three books in a weeks time…automatically both Ian Somerhalder and Alexis Bledel came to mind…..I also thought Ema Stone would make a good Ana but first choice would be Alexis!
Can’t wait!
I think your choices are great, and I used to think Ian would be perfect as Christian. But know I feel that Mathew Bomer from the show White Collar is PERFECT! Once I saw his picture I thought that he was the epitome of Christian Grey. He has the right look- sexy, handsome, and mysterious yet innocent. I liked Alexis Bledel as Ana, but I think Emmy Rossum could also be a good choice for Ana. She has an innocence about her and the perfect big eyes that Ana has!
Agreed such a CEO look, the guy should be glued to a tux
!
I agree with both your choices 100%. I have read all three books 2X already and I think Ian and Alexis would be the perfect Christian and Ana. I can’t picture anyone else play the roles better than these two.
Love this trilogy!
Although i agree on Ian, i think the perfect Mr. Grey is Colin Egglesfield!!!
I agrees well. Ian and Alexis would make a great Christian and Ana. I think Amanda Seyfried would make a good Ana too.
i just wish another book would come out finishing where we were left hanging… from christians point of view! i just thought to myself, noooo!
Definitely, Ian is Christian Grey in flesh!!
I love Alexis Bledel to be Ana!
Ian somerhalder is THE perfect Christian Grey!!!!! No one else.
Look at him! Enough said.
I definately agree Ian Somerhalder would be the perfect Christian, I just couldn’t imagine anyone else playing the part. My Ana would probably be Lilly Collins. I just hope it’s Somerhalder for Christian! Loved the books I really hope the movie is as good, I can’t wait!!!
Ian Somerhaulder is the PERFECT CHOICE! He just has that enigmatic brooding and sensual look about him,which can transform in an instant into a piercing and cold glare and at a drop he can switch his smile on and off…. SO SEXY!!!!!
If he is not sleected to plat Christian grey I would be very very disapointed….
I totally agree!! Ian is the best pick! He is beautiful. Enough said!
I SO agree with Ian being Christian!! Everything you just said about him is so true!! Idk if you have seen the Vampire Diaries but he plays the bad boy/caring person/mysterious guy so well!! And I think Lucy Hale will be a PERFECT Ana!! They havent really been known for any HUGE movie roles except for their shows the currently star in … I think them playing Christian and Ana will be a great break through for them in this industry. So E.L James, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE talk to the producers and directors about them!! Your books are amazing, never in my life have I read a book so fast! lol well laters!
O.M.G!!!!! They would be perfect for the role. I never even thought of her but Alexis would be perfect.
I couldn’t agree with you more about Ian Somerhalder. He’s perfect for the part. When I saw him on The Vampire Diaries I thought he would be great for a part like this. When I started reading the first “Fifty” all I could do was see his face in the book and I have ever since. I couldn’t ever imagine someone else in this part and I will be EXTREMELY disappointed if he doesn’t get the part…..
I agree although I think Johnathan Rys Meyers could pull off all Christianisms too!
I couldn’t have said it better! Ian Somerhalder is PERFECT!!! LOOK AT HIM!!!!
I so agree with you!! IAN SOMERHALDER is more than perfect for this role. I can’t see any other actor who is more perfect. His not well known, he has the striking good looks, eyes to melt any woman, hot body and to top it all he will nail the character perfectly he has the talent and acting capabilities to pull it off! I cannot see how anyone else could even be an option… the other guys named are either to gay to play the role… or to well known or to old or simply just don’t have the looks or fits as CHRISTIAN GREY and all he stands for… I think and i know many females will agree that IAN SOMERHALDER EMBODIES CHRISTIAN GREY. I CANNOT IMAGINE ANYONE ELSE AS THEY JUST DON’T ADD UP TO THE CHRISTIAN GREY STANDARD… I WONT EVEN BOTHER TO WATCH THE MOVIE IF THEY CAST ANYONE ELSE AS THEN I KNOW THE MOVIE WILL NOT BE AS GOOD AS ENVISIONED….
Ian Somerhalder is my only choice for Christian Grey. He can play dark, sexy, dominating. As for Ana I am not sure who. Looking forward to seeing the movies.
Absolutely!!!!
Matt Bomer is a must having seen him on Magic Mike, he’s the fifty i’ve fallen in love with!!
Oh MY GOD I was thinking the same thing. I watch white collar every week. He could be our Mr. Grey. And then their is Ian. Two hot guys, YES, YES Hell YES.
i agree matt bomber is best to play mr gray he as the look
i agree with you, he is perfect and so cocky already that he fits the role! and i like the idea of Emma Stone. i love her! but for sure Mr. Ian IS Christian Grey
yes Ian Somerhaulder should be Mr. Grey
Totally agree
YES…Ian Somerhalder as Christian and
Alexis Bledel as Ana or Felicity Jones
I am in LOVE with the idea of Alexis as Ana…perfect! And I’m all for Ian or Matt Bomer… either way, I think we all win there
Definitely – so agree to that too! Excellent choice!
Ian would make a great Christian. Those icy eyes, crooked smirk. Perfect!
he is a doll! and has just the right amount of acting fury I love him
Perfect! Smouldering gray eyes, perfet smile/grin, amazing actor and obviously stunningly attractive !!!!! Born to be Mr. Grey!
Ian Somerhaulder is a very good choice, however there is another little known actor named Wes Brown with the perfect Christian Grey eyes. He has the total look. Check him out!!! I still can’t decide on Ana yet, there are a few who would do nicely. Fifty’s character will be a difficult choice.
Without a doubt, he IS Christian.
he is the perfect man for the job them eyes
Christian Bail should be Christian Grey!!!
Hes unbelievably good looking, sexy, amazing body, CUTE
AND he has the hair!!
Maybe if he was a little younger looking. I don’t think he can pull off 27
I agree!
Too short!!! he is only 5’9″
So very true, Ian would be my Christian and Alexis Bledel, Ana
yes, the best choices on both. i’ve changed my mind from my original choice on Christian. Ian is way hot and Alexis would make the perfect Ana
Totally agree! Ian is the best choice. He has the attitude, the body, the walk and most importantly, the EYES!
I would like to leave here registered, if that will count somehow, my opinion for the role of Chritian Grey – The Absolutely Breathtaking CEO of Grey Enterpreises… And thank God there are other people who agree with me that Ian Somerhalder is the perfect Mr. Grey. The eyes, the smile, the moves and the gestures are not just compatible but, at least for me, who started reading the book without a face for Mr. Grey, when I saw Ian acting (and I’m not a Vampire Diaries fan), I just couldn’t imagine anyone else. He became the face for Mr. Grey immediately…
Thanks for the opportunity and here I leave my vote for Mr. Grey: Ian Somerhalder.
Kind regards.
.. . . ..
now this guy i agree with! great eyes
SUPER YES! for that.. He’s so cute. hihi
I TOTALLY agree…Taylor is so manly and so PERFECT for the Christia Grey’s role!!!!
Loved the books and now that I’m finished all 3 (in 1 week ) I’m needing more na and Christian. I’m having withdrawals !! LOL While on the movie topic,Taylor looks good. No to Ian and Matthew as while they are definitely gorgeous, they don’t have the height. Christian is meant to be tall and muscular ! And please not Ryan Gosling either, I don’t think he fits.I was thinking of an actor with a physique like Chris Hemsworth ? He’s physically huge !
Ana
ryan gosling could not play christian
i think ryan could play christian! have you seen him in any of the movies hes played in? perfect!
I could not agree with you more. He is just not Christian
Instead of a full feature film, how about a HBO or Showtime series? Fifty Shades every week – Oh My!
I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO COPE WITH A WEEKLY FIX OF FIFTY!! I AM PHENING FOR THE NEXT BOOK!
me too..
I’d be all for this idea.
I would watch!!!
You are so right! he is EXACTLY what I see for Christian – I think that Felicity Jones is a great Ana – Needs to be some unknowns for these roles.
The idea of Felicity Jones sounds good to me as well, but while reading about Christian’s “snorts; frowns; half way smiles” I kept picturing Rupert Friend. I am sure it is not going to be easy to cast these two characters, as Anastasia is as surprisingly complicated as Christian. Ultimately, to me Ana should be the version of a young Ali MacGraw.
Pretty please make Taylor Kitsch (aka dreamy Pogue) the Christian of the movie…
Am thrilled with the idea of the movie however I do have high expectations and I don’t see how they can reach the darkness without this movie being R rated.
My picks for leading actors:
Chris Hemsworth as Mr Grey
Scarlett Johanson as Miss Steele.
Daryl Hanna or Sharon Stone as Mrs Robinson.
Hugh Jackman as Taylor or Dr Flynn.
Oh I can’t wait.
I don’t feel that be can bring CHRISTIAN to Christian. They need a man that is taller. And more mature. Seductive and yet innocent. He has to have a look that can not to be blunt but make you wet from the first sight of him. Strong jaw line and built to look god like. RyanGosling. But not him of course he needs to have copper/ dark hair. I also think that Katherine McAfee would be absolutely beautiful a chose that would bring Anastasia to life. She is innocent yet sexy. Beautiful with little make up and a body that would melt any man’s heart. Her purity is how I depict how the woman they chose should be. Now as for the rest of the wonder characters.. well a brother Elliot he should sweet cute and not as tall.. someone like Matthew Bomer sweet and looks great in a suit. Now Kate needs to be sexy smart and of course red haired and vibrant. I hope and pray they chose a cast that brings.every word she typed to a wonderful story I can watch over and over again. Such as I read over and over again. I love how she brings such life to this love story. Thank E.L James you have made me fall in love with reading.
I think he’s a good choice but I see Christian bale as a far better fit….he def fulfills the role for the ”white and dark” knight….as far as Anna I can see Amanda seyfield, Emma or Anne Hathaway…..every woman will see their own fantasy character but that’s who I see playing the roles perfectly!!!! Atleast that’s my opinion…….what do you guys think?
I agree! Christian Bale is perfect as Christian Grey!
I really like Jim Caviezel to play Christian Gray and Emma Stone as Ana…
I agree Taylor is a great choice. but then again there are so many possibilities for Mr. Christian Grey! Taylor Kitsch, Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Ryan Gosling, Ian Somerhalder, Jim Chaveizel, etc. the list goes on.. however I do no think Paul Walker or Matthew Macconaughey would be a good pick. For the girls it is so hard I like Mila Kunis, Emma Stone, Lucy Hale, Scarlett Johansson and some I cant remember the for.. However if Hugh Jackman isnt selected for Mr. Christian Grey I think he’d make an excellent Taylor. Although I cant see him play a background guy….. But whomever they pick I just hope its a good person Guy and Girl.. I cannot wait for the movie to come out.. I just feel bad for all the guys out there whos girlfriends have read the book, and gave them hell afterwards!
I completely agree that Taylor Kitsch would be perfect to play Christian. He definitely has the body, eyes, sex appeal…
I think its a toss up between Paul Walker and Ian Somerhalder as “Christian” and Rachel Bilson and Mila Kunis as “Ana”. That is almost perfection
As I began reading the first book, the actor that I pictured the instant I started visualizing Christian Grey was Ryan Philippe. His hair falls the same way, his unshaven face, and his square jaw. He is the only one I pictured reading the other two books!! As far as Ana, I thought the innocence of Kirsten Stewart from her character in Twilight would fit, but I am not sure she would fit the role completely..
no way…….Chris Hemsworth is PERFECT as Christian and Emma Stone as Ana……..perfect
Please check out Cam Gigandet! He’s hot and definitely has that Grey appeal!
I can see why you like Taylor Kitsch, and he would make the perfect Christian Grey. But, i still choose Lucy Hale for Ana!! I love how she gets into her roles with her enthusiasm. She can play any role!!
I think Taylor Kitsch would be great. Another perfect choice for Mr. Gray would be Wentworth Miller! Lucy Hale or Emma Stone would be a great Ana.
Kellan Lutz who played Emmett and Ashley Greene who played Alice both from the Twilight movies.
Hello!!! for me, the best actor to be Christian Grey is Matt Bomer… he is very very handsome… and his eyes!!! OMG
I have just finished reading this trilogy twice, although Taylor sounds and looks great, I would love to see Josh Duhmal!!! He fits my fifty perfectly
Mila Kunis as Anna and Ian Somerhaulder and Christian!
I also like Mila Kunis as Ana
i agree mila kunis as Ana but i think matthew McConaughey would make a great Mr Grey. bc i think he would do good with the mood swings that he has and every thing that “sir” has just thinking about it makes me smile
Thank you!!! I so agree with you that Matthew McConaughey would make an awesome Christian…..He was/is the image I’ve had in my mind the entire time I’ve read/been reading this series…..
Also just a side thought….I would LOVE to se EL James rewrite the series from Christian’s point of view…like the last section in the series…it would be very interesting to see how Christian was ‘thinking’, as opposed to Ana’s point of view.
Absolutely! Please, please let it be Matthew McConaughy. He is ‘My Fifty’. So right for the part of Christian. Mature but so hot. And Natalie Portman as Ana. They would be so good together. Finished the books and can’t wait for the movie.
Jessi nugent and Christian bail !
i agree! i just hope they can pull off the acting and the chemistry!
I totally agree with your choices! I think if they dont chose a very hot actor the movie will not be worth watching. And when i hear they may chose Ryan Gosling, i think that would be a huge mistake since he is not mouth watering
I agree for Ian as Christian but for Ana I think alexis Bledel is perfect fit.
It is brilliant that a male/female producing team has been selected to create the Fifty movies. I will definitely be first in line and can’t wait to see it on the big screen. I think Anna Kendrick would make a GREAT Ana Steele & I am at a lose for Christian. Maybe some new blood?
I have read each book 7 TIMES and I have enjoyed it each time. Iam glad it’s going to be a movie. I don’t know how they are going to pull it off. But I can’t wait. What is the time line? does anyone know? I think maybe Christan Stewart for Ana and For sure Ian Somerhalder for Christian. He has that LOOK!!!! and he is sooooooo damn HOT. Congrats EL.
I am glad I am not the only one who has read so the over and over. I have never read but the twlight series but I am absolutley just flood by the 3 books. I just could not get enouth of ot. I have Chrisitian so fair on a pedastal that its going to have to take a hell of an author to play the part. I hope that another one is coming out
Glad to hear 7; I was beginning to worry about my addiction, having read each 5 times. Cannot wait for the movie or the prequel.
Yes, I’m rounding my third time on each. Cannot get enough. I especially loved Christian’s point of view. I would LOVE another 3 books from his perspective.
I am also glad to hear I’m not the only one reading them over. I have read them all twice and the second one 3 times. Fifty Shades Darker is my favorite. I started from the beginning last night. It’s just like you can’t get enough
ahaha, Me, just 2nd time. well, these books made us crazy.
I disagree I think for Christian they need someone with experience. Someone who will know exactly what to do, and has the experience needed to portray the attitude, the sexiness, and have the mysterious side that Christian Grey has and that alone is not an easy task. I feel bad for whoever has to pick Ana and Christian because if they pick badly the movie will do so horribly.
I am so glad that it will be made into a movie. I got depressed after finishing all three books. I felt like I was no longer a part of their world. I wanted to stay there.
It was the the best reading in a long time for me.
I totally agree im so disappointed that i have now finished the 3 books brilliant as they were i wish they had never had to end lol I think i will read them again lol x
I too was depressed… so depressed that I started re-reading them (half way thru book II, again), picking up on additional points that I missed the first time.. EL’s books are absolutely, positively the best I’ve read since Twilight, where i was interested in a series.. I LOVE THEM, her writing, the story (which is dear to my heart), everything!!!
No…your not the only one either & I’m glad to know I’m not too
These are the 1st books I’ve EVER read & the 1st books I’ve ever owned. I also found myself lost & went back to reading them again. Very not-patiently waiting for the prequil that I hope James will write from Grey’s prespective
Me too, after reading it twice you pick up on things you missed the first time. But, I can honestly say, I’m totally NOT A FAN of twilight, so I’m glad these books turned out to be an “erotic” romance/contemporary.
I feel exactly the same, almost done with 3 again, but I have lost 7 lbs because it is so intense.
Join the club
Read again,its worth it
So did I, I read all 3 books in less then a week and got caught up in the fairy tale of the money and fame and the other, I have never been the type to read books but this was amazing in everyway. I was hoping it was not just me that have been lost since reading them
i think you all have great choices. but my christian is jake gyllenhaal. after seeing love and other drugs i beleive he can totally deliver the emotional complexity of the role as well as pull off the sex part.
I agree that it is only fitting that they had a male AND female producer to capture both point of views. And yes everyone has a different picture of who Christian and Ana should be. Honestly, thinking of Ana is a LOT easier than Christian (he is every woman’s fantasy right now and that is hard to find in reality..lol) M picture of Ana is Emmy Rossum. So innocent looking, but can be assertive and absolutely, breathtakingly gorgeous. My sister thinks Lily Collins is perfect. Different POV’s..lol…although, I have to admit…the suggestion of Taylor Kitsch wasn’t that bad….
I believe that both characters should be played by unknowns, actors we have never seen before, that way they ARE Christian & Ana and we have no pre-conceived idea’s on the actor or his/her acting abilities. I love these books, can’t wait for the movie… and thanx E.L, my website has gone crazy since your books came out.
YES…unknowns is the way to go – these beautiful characters would be well served to be brought to screen in the light of the unknown.
i agree. emmy rossum would make a perfect ana steele. just like jake g.(her co star from day after tomorrow) would make a perfect christian grey.
that’s be awesome if emmy rossum was ana she’s so pretty
I think Emma Stone is perfect to play Ana….
complety agree
me too……….Chris Hemsworth as Christian
IAN SOMERHAULDER!!!!! Enough said!
lol AGREE!!
yes, Ian is the right guy! PLZ
TOO SHORT, he is only 5’9, christian need to be at least 6’3″, he towers over her.
i think the perfecttttttt christian grey would be Ian Somerhalder…
I totally disagree ..
I absolutely loved this trilogy, and I have never ever felt so affected by such an excellant fictitional story. I really hope that Ian Somerhalder gets to play the part of Mr Christian Grey, he is exactly how I pictured him to look…..FINGERS CROSSED
Well Done to all and thankyou for giving me 2 solid weeks of wonderful reading
I was thinking Henry Cavill (Tudors, Immortals, soon-to-be Superman) as Christian Grey, and Alexis Bledel as Ana Steele (the big soulful eyes) though I don’t know if Alexis is confident enough to even consider taking on this role.
What got me thinking of Henry was this youtube video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H699qRoxqUk&feature=slpl
A few points on the bit are on this bit. Example(s): Charlie Tango, the Glider, The Black suit and bowtie (*note: on the .08*secs on this reel), the grey tie….etc…etc… and HE looks good here. Just change the Benz to the RX8 Spyder and we’re settled
Totally agree with Henry Cavill!!! He is so beautiful and will be a great Christian Grey!! No to Ian Somerhalder, he isn’t all enough. Hope Henry Cavill is picked!!!!
I will second third and fourth that vote, I would loooove it if you picked henry cavill!!
Yes..Henry Cavill is who I have also had in mind since the beginning!!! I really hope EL James reads this because I would also like to mention that I think that ANGELINA JOLIE would be an awesome DIRECTOR. She would have the balls to stand up for the integrity of the books and can be trusted to not water the movie down. This movie will not do if there is simply a flash of a breast and then fade to black – scene over. NO! NO! NO! That simply won’t do. I think the director should be female, because my husband also read these books and we have completely different perspectives of the story. That says it right there! Laters
I thought this video was awesome!! He is gorgeous! Would play a great Christian, I would have to go with Henry or Matt Bomer! Either way, Im interested!
HENRY CAVILL IS IT FOR ME:-D
Yes, Henry Cavill would be perfect…..if not, Matt Bomer. Both are beautiful and would play the role very well.
Henry Cavill as Christian Grey. Great actor, perfect body which he isn’t afraid to show off (played Henry the VIII’s best friend in “The Tudors”) and those eyes.
Oh wow, just watched Henry Cavill on youtube – OMG OMG….yar! Ohh and then Alex Pettyfer, oh yum…
HOLY HOLY whatever that was.. it was perfect that man is amazing. I love the idea of him being Christian. Oh so much that video was hot and spot on.
Through all three books HENRY CAVILL is who I have in my head so sexy! ALEXIS BLEDEL as Ana, innocent and sweet but able to hold he own. Love YouTube video it will keep me satisfied for now he’s perfect!
Henry Cavill! Absolutely! No better choice.
Yes! Henry Cavill as Christian Grey! He looks awesome in that suit and those eyes….enough said!
I like that choice!
Definitely….Christian has to be Henry Cavill. Have you seen him in the Tudors? Oh my! Henry Cavill would be PERFECT! Alexis Bladel or Felicity Jones would make great a Ana.
Can’t have said it better myself. Henry Cavill is Christian Grey 1000%!!
Just watched your you tube clip and I’m convinced Henry would be perfect!!! Right Age, Right Look, Right Everything!!
I did not know who Henry Cavill was, but I just watched that video, omg!!! that made my heart race lol
Hi
I totally agree I too see Benedict Cumberbatch as Christian. It’s been the focus of quite a few discussions between me and a colleague.:)
YEA!!! Thank you. I think there are two of us. LOL! Sorry gang, but I just don’t get the Ian thing. I looked him up images and video, and my Christian just isn’t that smirky.
I would love Matthew McConaughey to play the role, maybe Paul Walker, for Ana I think Anna Friel would be great for the part, can’t wait!
I love the books and I can’t wait for the movie or something to get my Fifty Shades Fix.. For Christian I like Colin Egglesfield and Channing Tatum they are HOTT!! and has the Fifty look..For Kate I like Emma Stone, she already has the look.. For Anna..I like Jenna Dewan.. Just mt thoughts..
I completely agree with you on Channing Tatum and his wife..The chemistry that they already have and they love they share would make them the perfect Christian and Ana!!!!
Absolutely Channing Tatum !or Mathew McConoughey if they’re willing to go with someone older. Can’t wait for the movie or a 4th book!
I am still casting this movie in my mind and i think my two main characters are: Janet Montgomery as Anastasia and Paul Walker as Christian.
I vote Paul Walker as Christain and Shenae Grimes as Ana
I am so happy to hear that the production of Fifty Shades is in the works. The storyline was amazing and the book was well written. I actually felt like I could relate to the characters and shared their emotions. My only hope is that the movie can capture the personalities of the characters, and without omitting all the “GOOD STUFF”!
I think Christian’s character would be played well by Matthew Mcconauhey. I just picture him running his fingers through his hair the way that Christian does! I for one will definitely hang on his words!
Cant wait for the movie! I think Gabriel Macht (from the show “Suits”) should play Christian and Emma Watson to play Ana. The book trilogy is an amazing read, so interesting to see it in the big screen!
I totally agree with you on Gabriel Macht. He has that look, would make a great Christian.
Yes!!!!!
I can’t stop seeing Adrian Garnier and Anne Hathaway as the leads. She has such innocence but then can turn on the sex appeal.
And I don’t think I have to say another word about Adrian–Holy Crap!
Congratulations Erika! What fun to now make Fifty into movie. Please consider Derek Theler as Christian. He’s tall and sculpted with dark, confident eyes that look like they are hiding an inner sadness. Thanks!
I know everyone has an opinion about the cast. I am sure whoever they pick will be perfect. However, I would love to see Jenna Dewan-Tatum and Channing Tatum as the star roles. I think their chemistry and looks will prove to be the perfect match for these parts. Hope they would be considered at least.
I think these two would fit the parts perfectly as well. when I heard they were making a movie I thought of Channing tatum right away he has the look and so does his wife. They would fit these part so well, its like these parts were made for them.
Just finished reading the fantastic trilogy. Fifty Shades is really popular in Malta Europe. So glad to learn a movie is on its way. Please check out Gabriel Garko, he is a very popular Italian actor which would in my opinion capture Christian Grey perfectly!
OMG he is beautiful. He is definitely Christian. He ooozes sensuality.
never heard of him, THAT MAN IS BEAUTIFUL, and yummy, yes yes
My Christian is Channing Tatum!! Yum!
MICHAEL FASSBENDER IS THE PERFECT CHRISTIAN GREY IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE, PLEASE, CONSIDER HIM!!!
I think Ryan Reynolds should act as Christian
I totally agree
First of all I LOVE 50 SHADES! And while i was reading the books i had a spesific image of Christian in my mind and Ryan Reynolds fits it almost perfectly. I was agreeing with everyone about Ian Somerhalder being the perfect match but i havent seen him act. I have seen him in an interview, he seems too.. care-free, to play Christian (and i dont think he would look good as a blonde). With the Actors people want to be chosen, you have to remember that.. they have to look good with blonde hair.. sorry to burst your bubble about all the spunky men, but he must look mouth-watering as a blonde too
My 2 pics for Christian are Jessie Pavelka or Ian Somerhalder. Anastasia I like Alexis Bledel or Lucy Hale. I hope they announce soon who they are really considering.
I absolutely agree with Jesse Pavelka, he would be a perfect Christian.
And yes I agree with everyone It would be amazing if E.L James decides to wright the books from Christians point of view. It would bring a whole new dynamic to an already awesome trilogy. I really hope she does!
Oh Yeah!!!! he is perfect!!!!!!
Amanda Seyfried for Ana!
Definately agree Jessie Pavelka as Christian! Just look at all his photos and you will see Christian in all of them, looks, body,hair, eyes….ahhhhhh !
I am so happy that this book will be made into a movie. My ideas and hopes would be PLEASE HAVE UNKNOWN actors as the main characters. Look what it achieved for Twilight….
I was in a bar in New York & sitting at a small table in the playwright bar close to Macy’s reading my book, I was approached by a STUNNING piercing & sexy and smouldering dark haired man with some copper going through the top of his hair naturally. His eyes were so kind and sexy too. Can that be REAL, i AM TELLING YOU, IT WAS! This guys was so beautiful & strong it was almost as if It was unreal. I got some luck and spoke to a girl that worked there. She said he is a favorite among the ladies there and he had his very own fan club. I found that believable. She told me ‘he is from Ireland but is an actor just plodding along doing small radio voice overs and plays’ I was instantly alerted praying that one day this man could play the part of Christian Grey.
I left without having the courage to speak to this guy (David Mitchell curtosy of the co-worker) but when I went for my coat, he walked to the door behind me & said ‘Have a nice evening mam’ OMGoodness, he’s a natural Christian & he possibly doesn’t even know about the character I think he was possibly born to play. I contimplated if I should post the 3 books address them to this David Mitchell guy but decided against it.
I finished my stops and my final visit was to Washington were I went to see a play with my best friend from college. Not having told her yet about this guy, we sat to our seats and the play began. In came one character, then another then another. The play was called ‘The Seafearer’
Out came this guy, dressed like a tramp, hair gelled down to his face. Accent came, Holy christ it’s the Irish guy from the bar. Now, how much of a coincidence is this…….. Please please please check this guy out. I am telling you, someone unknown & smoking hot with super acting skills not seen by many you will be super siked if you get this guy. Laides, until the cast this man, you can see him at this bar The Playwright. It’s about 6 blocks from Macy’s. You will make your NY trip memorable when you see his nice warm smile. Gotta love the Irish. My grandparents are Irish & such beautiful people. Please check him out.
He sounds amazing! I live in Texas… I wish I could see him!
I agree that the producers will be amazing, but I have been reading everyones choices on who Christian Grey should be and I think alot of these actors are not stunning enough, christian needs to be beautiful and intimidating, I think Henry Cavill would be the perfect Christian Grey, he has the body, the face and, would suit the role with his past character on the Tudors, google him and you will not be disapppointed!!!!! Sign him and you will have many happy fans.
I would absolutely LOVE to see Ryan Gosling as Christian. That is who I pictured while reading the story.
I love love love that there will be a movie! My Mr. Grey is Matt Bomer! He is absolutely perfect, grey eye, killer body, beautiful face. The perfect Ana Steel would be Alexandra Daddario, big blue eyes, full lips! (grey eyes meet blue) There are great for the parts, I also like Ashley Green. But Christian has to be Matt Bomer!! Please please please!!!
so agree with matt bomer i have seen a fan made trailer and its amazing he is perfect his eyes his body his body language EVERYTHING i really hope E.L. James see’s this im tempted to put the link up her so she can see it. and understand what we are talking about
IT’S perfection
I can’t wait for film think Ryan Reynolds make a gud Christian but I’m sure whoever is pick film will still b amazing
Ryan Reynolds would be super hot and could pull the look, but can he do the serious acting?? If he can, then he has my vote.
However, if you are going to deviate from the proper age of 27, then it should be Alexander Skarsgard without question! Hot, dark, brooding, serious, in control, not in control, all of the above!
Not a chance. He is too old and not tall enough. Was there only me thoroughly dissapointed by the fact that Tom hanks got to play the guy in the Davinchi code?
I actually think we should have a vote on the casting. And not tatum whats his name either his neck is too big and he is too short and stumpy. What is the point of the author inventing a character for us all to totally wipe him out. I also dont think angelin jolie should be the girl. too old. not innocent enough. My daughter and i think the girl out of mamma mia she has lovely big eyes like Anna.
Alexis Bledel is the perfect Ana!! She has the youth, blue eyes, and dark hair! Also Christian should be played by Paul Walker, or Matt Bomer-delicious!
Most def COLIN EGGLESFIELD, HE FITS CHRISTIAN PERFECTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love, love, love, love the trilogy. I think the best person to play Christian Grey would be Christian Bale and Blake Lively as Ana Steel. Can’t wait for the movie.
Frist I just wanna say I love the books me and all the girls at work have read the book. My top three picks to play Christine Grey
1. IAN SOMERHALDER HE IS PERFECT SWOON ☺
ALEXANDER SKARSGARD! Not only does he WANT to play grey, he is who I imagined as I read the book! He’d be so perfect for the part! The way he can use his eyes just to show his feelings is exactly why I pictured him as Christian in the first place- the way he can swithlch emotions so quickly and with conviction! *swoon* hahaha. PLEASE pick him. I honestly don’t think anyone else could do the part justice. As far as ana, I think it should be an unknown actress.
I agree, a male/female team is needed for this movie.
I just hope they really keep in mind the age of the characters. The only thing that didn’t turn me off the first book, was that he wasn’t much older than her. If he had been in his 30′s and she only 21, I would have simply looked at him as a dirty old man, preying on a young girl. It was only that he was in his 20′s as well, that kept me reading.
When I hear names like Angelina Jolie being suggested for Ana…. Yikes! Maybe she’d make a good Mrs. Robinson?? Far too old for Ana though.
I really don’t want to see a 37 year old actor trying to play a 27 year old Christian. It would have to be called “Fifty shades of adulteration.”
So yes, good luck with the casting.
ARNIE HAMMER is by far the best actor for Christian. During every book all I could imagine was his voice. Amazing! I could not keep my hands off of it! Would love to hear Christian’s perspective and would love to see the movie!
ARNIE HAMMER for Christian!
I do not like to read but Fifty Shades of Grey has me addicted. My youngest daughter was reading the 3 series and I started. It is addictive and a page turner. I am 3/4 of the way through the 2nd book. In the beginning I hated Christian and thought Ana was crazy. Now after learning some of the things in Christian’s childhood I feel differently about “Fifty Shades of Fucked Up.”
Additionally, regarding who should play Christian in the upcoming movie I vote for
Alexander Skasgard for anyone who is not a fan of True Blood he plays Eric Northman. As for Ana I am not sure I would have to do some research.
I know we all have our own picture in our heads of who Mr Grey and Ana look like also who would be good playing them. I think ian somerhalder or Matt Bromer should play Mr Grey and I think Ashley Green should play Ana. But who knows all I know is I can’t wait till they publish the cast and when the movie starts to be filmed so exciting x
Simply cannot wait for the Movie! I think that Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore – VD) has just the right amount of youthfullness, hotness and badboy attitude to pull off the role of Christian!!!! he would be soo perfect!
I think Dr. Travis stork from the show the doctors is perfect for Christian
TRAVIS STORK!!!!!! HES TOTALLY 50!
YES! Benedict Cumberbatch is my perfect Christian Grey too! His voice is perfect, and he has this amazing way of looking both soft & emotional, and hurt, but hard & cold too! Just like how I imagine CG would look.
I bet BC could be pretty kinky too
I completely agree with you, Benedict Cumberbatch is the first and only face that popped into my mind when we first met Christian Grey. I know he’s English but to me he seems just perfect !!
Christian Bale is definitely THE Christian Grey! But Colin Egglesfield would do well as Christian Grey also.
Matthew Bomer. I believe is the perfect for Christian.. Just google him and you’ll see.
i wud loooooooooooooove 2 see brandon routh & mila kunis in d lead roles…..they both fill for their pen sketch and mila cn so easily gt into d role with her big eyes and brandon alrdy hs d physique for it
<3 <3
The real Anastasia:
http://youtu.be/GVQqZg5BisE
Yes she did write the song. Yes she should be cast as Anastasia. Yes she does not have blue eyes but Robert Pattinson’s eyes are neither gold nor red and he surely doesn’t really sparkle in the sun…
Meg Myers: Meginthedark.com
I definitely agree with rebecca02 in that I hope the right actors are chosen. My choice for Christian is TOTALLY Zac Efron; his acting is emotionally charged and magnetic, and I really feel he has grown as an artist over the past few years. And, not to mention, he is absolutely GORGEOUS. Google pictures of him in a suit if you don’t believe me!
But yes, best of luck with the casting and I look forward to watching this breathtaking series come to life on the screen.
Dan Stevens from downton abbey has the eyes I think, and is less well known so may be able to pull off the character better as we won’t see him as ‘that actor from such a such a film’ – but I agree with rebecca02 – it’s more about the acting than the looks. I wonder how the film will compare with the writing . .
My fave books in history so far! Read them in 4 days and I’m going to re-read them again! The author is amazing! Good luck with the movie! I cannot wait to see it. My choice for Chrisitan would be Alex Skarskard. He is yummy and I can totally see him as a Dom.
My choice for Ana would be Alexis Bledel. Whoever you choose, I’m sure the movie will be amazing!
Dear Rebecca!
I completely agree with you!!!
Benedict Cumberbatch was the first thing that came to mind when I would put a face on Christian G. I really haven’t seen much of his characters of the impressive list of his performance in films, TV-series and theatres. But his Sherlock sure made a big impression on me! Impatience to not fast enough get to know the resolution of Ana’s and Christians life together, I spent every free and awake minute reading the books. Now I will try to regain some hours of lost sleep…I eagerly look forward to the publication of the cast! …And I really enjoyed the books – they really appealed to my Swedish heart and soul – Thank You EL James!
I was thinking that E L James and the casting team might consider new talent for this project…It’s such a strong story that it doesn’t need major Star power to get people to see it on film…anyone who has read these books has already purchased a ticket for the show in their mind! While reading about Christian I thought that Jackson Rathbone (Jasper from Twilight) would play the part really well, he has something haunting about his eyes, and I agree with earlier posts about Felicity Jones, she would make a great Ana…sweet and yet strong!
yum Jackson would be so good!!!!!
I love JACKSON RATHBONE for the part of Christian … he has the eyes, the lips and smile, and ooooh yaaa the SWAGGER!
Think thats fab news I think a good christian grey would be Simon baker from the mentalist,smouldering good looks,charming but also dark & a fab dresser xx
I think that Lucy Hale or Alexis Bledel should play Ana because ana is just a plain normal college graduate not a beauty queen; plus a born natural brunette it just fits….
Felicity Jones looks like she would make a good Ana as well….
Elizabeth Olsen as a brunette would make a good Ana
I agree! I would like either her or Emma Stone for the part. I seen Felicity Jones in a movie I was watching and thought she could pull off the innocent but yet sexy part of Ana
I agree she could fit the part well
Yeah, she looks like she could do it, but Ana has blue eyes, Felicity could wear blue coloured contact lenses, maybe?
I totally agree! She was amazing in Mary, Martha, May!
No. I think that would be a wrong choice.
I was also thinking maybe Michelle Trachtenberg for Ana http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb58378/buffy/images/f/ff/0,1Michelle_Trachtenberg.jpg
…just a thought…
This is also the perfect pic of William Levy…and it has been said in an article that He would LOVE the opportunity!!! Just saying
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_RWOnrKFYUwQ/TCtrOUE-7zI/AAAAAAABALc/6Jizg4DWjuY/s1600/william+levy++(3).jpg
Alexis Bledel do.
i agree
yeah ur right…i think she’s the one who really fits to play for the role-ana
i totaly agree!
