The hit erotic Valentine movie of 2015, “Fifty Shades of Grey,” starring Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson, playing the roles of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, respectively, is set to have not just one but two sequels.
Apparently, the first sequel, which is aptly titled “Fifty Shades Darker,” will hit worldwide cinemas during Valentine’s of next year, which marks exactly two years from the time the original movie was shown.
Subsequently, a second sequel or a third movie will be released possibly a year later, with the title “Fifty Shades Freed,” details the Inquisitr.
The stock of Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson as actor and actress expectedly shot to high heavens following the success of “Fifty Shades of Grey” last year.
But Johnson has been into more movies than Dornan since the two of them were paired in “Fifty Shades of Grey.” She starred in the 2015 film “Black Mass” opposite Johnny Depp, and she also has an upcoming movie titled “The Sound of Metal.”
As for Jamie Dornan, he has been into the TV series “The Fall,” but he has yet to have another follow-up Hollywood film after “Fifty Shades of Grey.”
Feuding on the set
As a result of the glaring career progression between the two stars, there have been reports swirling around that the two actors are feuding on the set of “Fifty Shades Darker” which seems unfounded since the movie has yet to begin production as it is still in the pre-production phase.
Dornan and Johnson are said to be very excited in taking part in the sequel to their 2015 Valentine hit movie.
The actor, in a recent interview, said that he is thrilled to be back in character, and is ready to bring fans with another film in the hit franchise. The actor is also happy that the first film has broken box office records worldwide and said that he is already looking forward to working on the next film.
Although Dakota has been landing bigger roles in the movies, Jamie has been enjoying his fair share of fame and popularity since last year. In fact, during the filming of the upcoming season of “The Fall,” the actor was mobbed by fans in a filming location outside of Belfast in Ireland.
According to a source close to the actor, Jamie is always kind and patient because he understands that he has fans whom he treats very nicely by always taking the time to come and say hello to them. That is also the reason why he gets brilliant support from his fans wherever he goes.
More erotic scenes
Reports have it that “Fifty Shades Darker” will have more erotic scenes compared to the first movie. Apparently, this was due to the reactions of many fans who thought that the first film lacked the proper amount of sex for a movie adapted from an erotic BDSM novel, written by author E.L. James.
When asked if she was willing to do more for the sequel, Dakota said that she is determined to go beyond what was shown in “Fifty Shades of Grey” and has no qualms about showing more of her body. The actress added that her secret is that she has no shame because there is a part of a woman that wants to be the thing that breaks a man down.
It was because of her ability to block out feelings of shame that she won the Favorite Dramatic Movie Actress plum for the 2016 People’s Choice Awards, where she almost had a terrible wardrobe malfunction.
Reports also have it that Oscar-winner actress Kim Basinger would be joining the cast of the “Fifty Shades Darker,” reports the International Business Times.
Meanwhile, E.L. James revealed on January 31 on her social media account that she was in Vancouver, Canada, where “Fifty Shades Darker” is scheduled to film.
