After a slight blip in the lead casting with the departure of Charlie Hunnam, Universal Pictures and Focus Features’ adaptation of E.L. James FIFTY SHADES OF GREY can now move on with supporting casting. As we know, Jamie Dornan replaced the Sons Of Anarchy actor as the kinky billionaire Christian Grey, with rising beauty Dakota Johnson taking on Anastasia Steele, the virginal college student who takes a shine to his naughty lifestyle.
PACIFIC RIM and CAPTAIN PHILIPS character actor Max Martini has just signed on to play Christian’s bodyguard and newcomer Eloise Mumford will take on the role of Anastasia’s best pal and roommate Kate Kavanagh.
The film, being directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, has just had a revised release of the 13th February 2015. Moving from its original date of the 1st August 2014. It will also feature Jennifer Ehle, Luke Grimes and Victor Rasuk.
