Guest EXPAT Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 The internet has been buzzing with who will be playing the coveted role of Christian Grey in the upcoming movie Fifty Shades of Grey now that Charlie Hunnam has dropped out of the film. I would still like to see Matt Bomer but the writer said he'd never hire a gay actor, which is why I'm not going to see the film under any circumstances. Quote
Members Suckrates Posted October 13, 2013 Members Posted October 13, 2013 Wasnt aware he dropped out. What was his reason ? If it were Joe Mangeniello, I would swoon..... Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 It says that my Charlie was busy with his TV schedule... Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 It says that my Charlie was busy with his TV schedule... That was the public PR answer. But I think the real reason is that he felt the attention would be more negative than positive by doing this role. Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 I really liked him in Pacific Rim.. He is so dreamy.. But he is straight so I have to sadly let him go... Quote

Guest EXPAT Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 Jamie Dornan has been cast as Christian Grey, replacing Charlie Hunnam, who dropped out of the role. As a relatively unknown actor, this could break big for him. In 2006, when a model for Calvin Klein, he was called “The Golden Torso” which means he can pull off the nudity with ease. Quote
Guest Hoover42 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 I wonder if Charlie bailed because he had a hunch that the movie was not going to do as well as hoped. Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 He told a friend that he didn't want to be the next Robert Pattinson. But to your point there were a number of high profile actors who turned it down during the interest-seeking period. Quote
