Apparently he is favourite to play Christians and I for one would not be impressed!

I haven't read the books, well I read the first chapter... But from what I've heard about them... He could pull it off. He has a certain je nais se quoi...

Matt Bomer would be my choice. phwooaaarrrr!

ditsydoll · 12/09/2012 20:40

I'm busy reading the first book and at first going off what others had said I pictured Alexander Skarsgard but after readfing it I'm not sure.

On a side note, it really grates on me when Ana says "my sex" as in "he touched my sex." Confused Never heard of it that way before.

I like Christian Grey actually looks like Ricky Gervais.

SPsFanjoSponsoredByOrange · 12/09/2012 21:11

I think

RobinSparkles · 12/09/2012 21:11

Matt Bomer is gorgeous. Shame he's gay...

Sad
StaceeJaxx · 12/09/2012 21:11

I haven't the read the books (have no desire too). But if Ryan Gosling was in it I'd definitely watch the film! (Phwoar). Grin

SPsFanjoSponsoredByOrange · 12/09/2012 21:11

The woman would be played by that dead faced twilight woman.

RyanGoslingRocks · 12/09/2012 21:12

I've not read it. But Ryan Gosling is (obviously, according to me) incredibly smouldering. that Mat Bomer guy? Never heard of him but he looks like he would do a good job :-) and as for Eric....oh yes

RobinSparkles · 12/09/2012 21:12

Not that I would be in with a chance or anything! Grin

MikeLitoris · 12/09/2012 21:13

First off I read the books and hated them.

but

It is either Mat Bomer or Henry Cavil.

I cant link on this phone but do yourselves a favour and Google him.

Beautiful!

KellyElly · 12/09/2012 21:13

Ian Somerhalder. Has to be him. Ryan Gosling is a no no.

catgirl1976 · 12/09/2012 21:14

Christian Gray is a grade A prat.

Stop twining about your boo hoo childhood. You last 3 seconds in bed and you named your penis. Jog. On.

I don't think we'd have clicked.

Don't mind who plays him but they need to have mastered the "I am actually a right goon" face

RobinSparkles · 12/09/2012 21:14

I haven't read the books. How old is the character?

Flojo1979 · 12/09/2012 21:14

I guess u don't read a lot of chick lit user , its often referred to as 'my sex'.

MySpanielHell · 12/09/2012 21:15

As Christian Grey is an orphaned millionaire business with a variety of vehicles (some air borne), a secret room full of equipment in his house, a butler, a habit of going away on mysterious and unexplained 'business' trips, takes phone calls from an authority figure from his past, has a butler type person and every time he has sex somebody says or thinks 'Holy Cow,' I think it is safe to assume he is actually Batman and should be cast accordingly.

catgirl1976 · 12/09/2012 21:16

As much as I dislike him, I have to say excellent casting by MikeLitoris

That Mat Bomer chap is spot on. But hopefully has not named his penis.

Mike, you're right. Henry Cavill is bloody lovely!
And agree with Back2, The Gosling would turn it down. But if he was in it, or Henry, or Eric or this Mat guy, I would give it a watch, just to check their acting abilities. But if they said Holy Cow I'd switch it off...

PuppyMonkey · 12/09/2012 21:21

Ryan Gosling is a bit cross eyed.

Nobody from the Twilight films should be in it, as 50 Shades was originally FanFiction for Twilight so that would be daft.

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 12/09/2012 21:23

Christian Grey is ginger, lean and young. These blokes are all too old.

Milliesmummy12 · 12/09/2012 21:23

I love the Christian grey books, William levy to play Christian who is 28 and felicity Jones to play Ana :-)
