New top casting choices for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie

So a new screenwriter has been drafted on board for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, but the hot topic of conversation continues to be about the casting. The casting polls have been showing us how the favorites for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie have been fluctuating in the favor of books’ fans.

The latest data to come out about Fifty Shades of Grey the movie are that Matt Bomer is still a top favorite for the part of Christian Grey, along with “The Avengers’” Chris Hemsworth for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie. In the part of Anastasia Steele, Ashley Greene from Twilight is the top pick for Movie Fifty Shades. Other Anas following shortly behind include Alexis Bledel, Emilia Clarke and Alexandra Daddario. She might have been lower down the polls to begin with for the part of Anastasia in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, but Ashley Greene is slowly creeping up to the top. 

While the Alice Cullen actress definitely fits the description of Anastasia Steele, being the right age, body type and look, her association with Twilight might affect her casting in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, since the author has said she’d like to steer away from the association of Fifty Shades of Grey the movie from the Twilight franchise.

Matt Bomer is a hot choice for the role of Christian in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie and has a huge following that support his casting as Christian Grey. Chris Hemsworth might be a less talked of option for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, but he’s been gaining momentum slowly so who knows.

And of course, it’s near impossible to talk about Fifty Shades of Grey the movie without mentioning Ian Somerhalder, who is another huge fan favorite to take up the role of Christian Grey. The competition for the leading male in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie is a tight one, and seems to remain volatile between the leading actors. It’s still a while till the casting begins, but let’s see which one of the actors will win the role in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie.

Finding Elena for the movie Fifty Shades of Grey

There is more to casting for the movie Fifty Shades of Grey than Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey, with other key players who’ll need a decent depiction in the movie adaptation of the bestselling books.

The role of Elena is an exciting part, since she’s the older woman who brings Christian Grey into the world of S&M, when she seduces him as a teenage boy. At the moment there are two actresses who are high candidates for the movie Fifty Shades of Grey– Uma Thurman and Kim Cattrall.

Elena might be seen as having “ruined” Christian Grey, but he still respects and loves his ex-lover. In the movie Fifty Shades of Grey the role requires an actress who can pull off an enigmatic part like Elena. So which Hollywood actress would make the ideal “Mrs. Robinson” in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey?

Uma Thurman is a wonderful actress and would make a great Elena in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey. With her height and intense look, she would definitely fit the shoes of the sexually dominant woman that we’d all want to see in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey. Thurman is also unafraid of nudity and sex scenes, especially since she’s going to star in Lars Von Trier’s “Nymphomaniac,” which is set to be far more extreme than the movie Fifty Shades of Grey.

Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall is perfect for the role of Elena in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey. After playing the sexy Samantha Jones in Sex and the City, she’s already got the role down to a tee and is ready to take on the movie Fifty Shades of Grey. She’s definitely no stranger to sex scenes and nudity, and is currently holding the top spot for the role of Elena in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey.

Other actresses up for the movie Fifty Shades of Grey as the role of Elena include Demi Moore, Charlize Theron and Halle Berry, perhaps even Angelina Jolie might go for the part of Mrs. Robinson in Fifty Shades of Grey the Movie.

E.L. James hopes for a cameo in the movie Fifty Shades


Author of the Fifty Shades books has been keeping quiet on any news regarding the movie Fifty Shades, but one thing she’s dropped hints of is that she would like to make a cameo in the movie herself.

In September, E.L. James made a guest appearance on Katie Couric’s new talk show and teased fans with some half information on the movie Fifty Shades without giving a lot away. However, James has confessed that one smaller character in her bestselling books was based on herself.

“I’ve actually written myself into the book; I play a very tiny cameo role and I might try to do that if I’m asked to… well see,” said James on the topic of the movie Fifty Shades, “It’d be interesting to know if people can find me in the books.”

James continued to tease fans with her casting picks for the movie Fifty Shades, letting us know she does have certain actors in mind, but won’t drop any hints.

“I have three people who could play Christian and I think four who could play Ana, and I’m not going to tell you any of them.”

At the moment the recent polls on who should play Christian Grey in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey lean in favor of Ryan Gosling from the Notebook, who has the big name and the fan backing to make it work, Ian Somerhalder from the Vampire Diaries who has a passionate following for the role of Christian in the movie Fifty Shades and even E.L. James has revealed she’s a huge Vampire Diaries fan, and last but not least Matt Bomer. Even though American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis, who was under consideration at one point to pen the script for the movie Fifty Shades, made comments questioning Bomer’s suitability to play Christian Grey because he’s openly gay. Instead of hurting Bomer’s chances, fans have voted him in at the number one position to play the role of Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey the Movie.

Can you guess who E.L. James’s cameo is in the book and do you think the studios will give the writer a part in the movie Fifty Shades the same way Stephenie Meyer did in the first Twilight movie?

Emma Watson on nude scenes in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey

It might be difficult, and even feels wrong, to imagine the Harry Potter good-girl Emma Watson stripping down for scenes in the red room of pain in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey, but the former child star is growing up and wants to take on more adult roles.

Emma’s name has been tossed around when people have been talking about the movie Fifty Shades of Grey, and while the British actress has denied the rumors that are circulating about being approached for the role, it seems the former Harry Potter star is open to the movie if the script is good.

Having Watson’s name attached to Fifty Shades of Grey the Movie has yielded mixed feelings all over, from getting her fans hot under the collar to those shocked to imagine Hermione being naked and spanked in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey

Emma Watson has been direct with her fans about her transition to grown up roles and is preparing them for the inevitable day when she’ll do a nude or sex scene in a movie in the future. When the actress was interviewed by Hello! magazine about stripping for a role, like the movie Fifty Shades of Grey, she commented on the topic: “I’ve been saying since I was 16 that if it’s the right role and important for character development and the story, then of course I’ll do it.”

In the movie Fifty Shades of Grey, sex and nudity does play an important part in Anastasia Steele’s transformation to virgin into a submissive sex slave, so it fits the criteria Emma stated above. The association with the movie Fifty Shades of Grey has done Emma Watson more good than bad, and the actress likes the fact people are seeing her in a different light beyond Hermione Granger.

“It’s very exciting that people are starting to see me in a different way,” says Emma on the movie Fifty Shades of Grey casting rumors, “It means that they’re allowing me the space to grow and develop and reincarnate myself.”

So who know, perhaps Emma Watson might be Anastasia Steele in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey.

Robert Pattinson on the casting for Fifty Shades of Grey the Movie

He might have once been the fan favorite to play Mr. Christian Grey in the upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, but since E.L. James has spoken out against casting the Twilight couple, Robert Pattinson has fallen off the shortlist. However, the British actor still has his own views on who should portray Christian Grey.

The former Disney actor Shia LaBeouf may seem like an odd choice to play Christian in The Movie Fifty Shades Of Grey, but with his new and explicit project with Lars Von Trier, Nymphomaniac, it seems like Shia is willing to take on a grittier role. 

The 26-year-old actor may not have been at the top of the polls to star in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, but he’s getting the thumbs up from one other Christian Grey favorite. On Shia’s decision to star in the movie, let’s see what Pattinson had to say about it: “I love Lars. I think he’s great. It’s bold, it’s brave. Shia did that fully nude Sigur Rós video already, he’s already popped his cherry, but it’s great.”

On the topic of Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, Robert said Shia would “do anything.” Does this imply that Shia would make a go for it for Fifty Shades of Grey the movie? There is also no smoke without fire, as his name has recently been connected to Fifty Shades of Grey the movie all over varying fan sites, speculating he’ll get the role of Christian Grey.

However, nearly every single actor in Hollywood is battling to get a part in Movie Fifty Shades. Ryan Gosling is supposed to be the fan favorite, with Vampire Diaries’ Ian Somerhalder coming in close second. Other names who have been connected with Fifty Shades of Grey the movie include Alexander Skarsgard and Henry Cavill. Even porn star James Deen says he wants a part in Fifty Shades of Grey the movie, so it looks like it’s going to be a tough fight between Hollywood’s hottest for the most sought after role of the moment.

E.L. James wants Shailene Woodley for Ana Steele in Movie Fifty Shades

She may not be the biggest name actress vying for the role, but it seems 20-year-old Shailene Woodley has caught E.L. James’s eye for the role of Anastasia Steele in the movie Fifty Shades of Grey.

The actress is best known for her role in The Descendents, where she received a Golden Globe nomination for her performance along side George Clooney. Her acting skills haven’t gone unnoticed, and E.L. James has taken an interest in her casting for the movie Fifty Shades as the role of innocent virginal college girl who is seduced by the handsome and rich Christian Grey who has a dark secret he get’s to share with Ana.

At the moment Universal Pictures and Focus Features, the studios who have acquired the rights to the movie Fifty Shades of Grey, are busy looking for a director and screenwriter before they turn to casting considerations. At the moment the only people we know who are in on the project for the movie Fifty Shades are The Social Network duo Dana Brunetti and Mike De Lucca who’ll be producing the movie Fifty Shades.

E.L. James will play an active part in the making of the movie Fifty Shades of Grey, but will not pen the script herself, however she’ll take part in making key decisions with respect to casting.

Among the actresses whose names have been connected to Fifty Shades of Grey the Movie have included Emma Watson (who dismissed the rumors), Alexis Bledel, Lucy Hale and Ashley Benson. However, with E.L. James as a backer, it definitely gives Woodley the advantage for a role in the movie Fifty Shades.

At the moment, Shailene Woodly is filming a high school comedy film called The Spectacular Now, based on the young adult novel by Tim Tharp and is a far cry from the movie Fifty Shades. In addition, she is contracted to play in White Bird, which will be directed by Gregg Araki.

Right now, the project of the Movie Fifty Shades is the one that actors and actresses are fighting for, but this newcomer out of the blue might just make it as Anastasia Steele thanks to being spotted by E.L. James.

A few Seattle hotels are jumping on the Fifty Shades of Grey the movie bandwagon, offering romance packages and room inspired by the book’s signature scenes.  Some include rides in Audis while other’s offer Christian’s favorite wines and a chance to see the sights of Seattle.  One UK hotel has decided to put Fifty Shades of Grey books in their nightstands, taking the place of the Bible in the bed side drawer.  This might be controversial, but these hotels are taking advantage of possible attraction and sales based upon the upcoming release of Fifty Shades of Grey the movie and all of the press that comes with. 

Sex toy lines and BDSM retailers are also seeing a boost in sales and interest in what they have to offer.  Fifty Shades of Grey has sparked interest in this lifestyle and experimentation in sex play that many people did not show interest in before.  Whatever the case is, whether a weekend getaway, a sexy grey suit or a trip to the local sex shop, these businesses are reaping the benefits of Fifty Shades of Grey’s popularity.
