The controversial, sultry book trilogy, 50 Shades, has become must reads among men and women of every age, and it is rumored to be adapted into a film version of the rather detailed scenes between Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele. As questions and predictions flood my brain at the very thought of a movie of this nature, I can’t help but wonder who the cast would consist of, and I’m kinda getting whiplash as rumors are being hurled around about possible candidates.
Many celebrities have been rumored to be considered for the roles, including Matt Bomer, Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth and Ian Somerhalder, but no one has been confirmed yet. The latest stars to be thrown into rumored mix are Angelina Jolie, William Levy and Emma Watson, even though Emma admits that she knows nothing about it as of now. She told Entertainment Weekly:
“I haven’t read the book, I haven’t read a script, nothing.There are so many movies you become attached to when I’ve literally never even received a phone call. It was the same way with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo—I never even saw a script!”
On the other hand, William Levy, who admits that he’s read the books, told Celebuzz:
“If the opportunity comes for me to play this role, it would be amazing. It’s a great book…[and] every day I hear about it. I see the fans saying it all over. I would play it. I would love to do it. We’ve just got to see.”
And as for Angelina, well, we all know she could pull off a sex kitten, but I think she might be too old. It’s not my call, and there’s so many rumors that I just can’t keep up nor make my own predictions. Who do you think could pull off a sexy Christian and naive Anastasia duo?

So, they’re making a porno?

No clue. I haven’t read the books. From what I’ve read on-line makes it seem like a 7th grader tried to make a BDSM book based off Twilight and what she read on the internet. They can cast who ever they choose. I will catch it on Netflix.

Angelina is too old and wouldn’t do it….Ian Somerhalder is my first choice. William Levy kind of has the look but not quite. Dark hair and piercing blue eyes would be awesome (once again, like Ian Somerhalder…or even Matt Bomer).

Oh no…..It’s being passed around at the clinic I work at. My fiance and I went home with one of our doctor’s to fix her computer, and she even had it. X/

I didn’t read the books but how about Eric from true blood?

David Gandy and Monica Bellucci
Wentworth miller and Miranda Kerr
or David Gandy and Miranda Kerr
David and Miranda aren’t an actor/actress, but who cares

Ian Somerhalder is definitely my first choice. Emma Stone would be super interesting as the main girl. I could see that working out. I could see Alexander Skarsgard being Christian, too. I don’t think the first book will be that hard to make into a movie. There isn’t that much sex in the first book, but there’s so much in the second one haha. It’ll probably be better as a movie without all the references to her subconscious and goddess. Hopefully there will be less lip biting too hahaha.

@Erika_Steele@xanga - It is fan fiction based off of twilight, lol. Why do people like this garbage?!
guest
I just hope its NOT Kristen Stewart. Ugh -.- I like Emma Watson as Anastasia Steele, she has the look of innocence. For Christian Grey, not sure..
guest
I have no predictions or expectations of this movie. I’m not really interested in reading the books either. I will just wait and see.
guest
LOLOL who even suggested Angelina for the part? shes too old for it smh
guest
I heard that Fan Girls were screaming for Chris Pine to be Christian Grey. I’ll read the book AND see the movie if it’s him.
Chris Pine. Mmmm!
guest
Matt Bomer has GOT to be Christian.
guest
I don’t know about Ana, but this suddenly popped into my head recently while I was reading the second book – I think Chris Pine would make a pretty damn good Christian Grey
guest
i haven’t even read the book yet…i plan to but it would be exciting to see if it becomes a movie.
guest
@AncoraImparo@xanga - CAN I GET AN AMEN
guest
It would completely ruin my view of Emma Watson if she played Ana =( But I can definitely see Angelina Jolie and Mrs. Robinson. And Matt Bomer as Christian, for sure.

Anastasia is only 22 so Angelina Jolie is defffff too old to play her. I would not go see the movie if she gets the part of Ana. I think Lucy Hale would make a good Ana but I feel like she would get a lot of criticism because she’s mainly been an actress in teen friendly shows. But she’s the right age and I feel like she’s quirky enough to play Anastasia. As for Mr. Grey I think Chris Pine would be a good match. Or Channing Tatum. But again, Channing is a good match to play anything in any movie in my opinion lol.

@howsaboutsomemilk@xanga - a to the MEN! he’s sexy =)
guest
the only thing enjoyable about the book was the sex scenes, and the plot was just…so ordinary and boring, so unless they get a nc-17 rating, I doubt the movie will be any good. although, Jonathan Rhys Meyers would be a great Grey. but angelina jolie is too old and sultry to be anna.

I will pretty much die and go to heaven if Ian Somerhalder is Christian
guest
i will only watch it if emma watson is in it. omfg girl crush.
guest
I’m hoping the hype dies down before they make this piece of trash into a film.
guest
Why, god, why.
guest
@randi - YES. A lot of hot guys with dark hair and ice blue eyes could fit the part, but the way Ian plays Damon Salvatore makes me think he can DEFINITELY do Christian Grey justice.
guest
oh good lord I HATE the books why why why would they make a terrible movie to go with it.
