’50 Shades of Grey’ Casts Jamie Dornan And Dakota Johnson For The Lead Roles

"50 Shades of Grey" is definitely one of the most awaited films after its official trailer has been released, but before the production team has reached its final decisions regarding the cast list, it first underwent a heavy controversy.

Christian Grey is indeed a well-fantasized character that when a news came regarding the novel's film adaptation, book readers are eventually trying to guess who will be the actor to portray the role. The famous fictional character who happened to be a young millionaire has been viewed by many as someone who's extremely hot with oozing sex appeal. With that, fans were very expectant that the actor to play Christian Grey's character will just definitely fit the descriptions of him in the book.

Just like E. L. James' novel, the upcoming movie has been also controversial even before it could be released. "50 Shades of Grey" cast list has been actually under the media scrutiny particularly that of the roles of Christian and his prospect submissive, Anastasia Steele. Before the film's production team could even release the official list of actors, many fans have already campaigned their favorite stars to be chosen for the role.

Names of Matt Bomer and Alexis Bledel surfaced earlier to be taking the lead roles. Fans of them even ignited an online frenzy when a fan-made trailer was released showing them as Christian and Anastasia. Despite of the effort made by the fans, it wasn't pushed through when "50 Shades of Grey" production initially revealed that they will be casting Charlie Hunnam and Dakota Johnson.

With the stars being chosen for the film, it has quite garnered controversy since there are those who are not pleased with it. Final casting for "50 Shades of Grey" reveled that instead of Hunnam, it will be Jamie Dornan who will be playing as Christian. With the former model turned actor chosen for the role, fans are yet to be proven that he's suited for the character; however, after the movie's official trailer was released, it seemed to garner positive notes.
