Strap yourselves in – the mildly erotic film event of the year is set to drop. Fifty Shades of Grey is the much hyped adaptation of E. L. James’ best-selling novel directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson (Nowhere Boy). Stepping into the role of Ana is Dakota Johnson while The Fall’s Jamie Dornan suits up as billionaire playboy Christian Grey. The film co-stars Eloise Mumford, Luke Grimes, Rita Ora, Victor Rasuk, Max Martini, Dylan Neal, Callum Keith Rennie, Jennifer Ehle, and Marcia Gay Harden.

FIFTY SHADES OF GREY is the hotly anticipated film adaptation of the bestselling book that has become a global phenomenon. Since its release, the “Fifty Shades” trilogy has been translated into 51 languages worldwide and sold more than 100 million copies in e-book and print—making it one of the biggest and fastest-selling book series ever.

“The fundamental reason why I wanted to make this movie is that it feels like a fairy tale with similar plotlines to things that we grew up with, although in a very adult version,” explains director Taylor-Johnson. “A young girl meets her prince. He’s unavailable. He’s successful, fabulous, rich, but it twists and unfolds and becomes something very different. It’s also the story of this girl on a sexual exploration, a coming- of-age journey.”
