Gus Van Sant to Direct Fifty Shades of Grey Movie


While fans are busy discussing who’ll be cast as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, there is one crucial element of the movie that we all keep forgetting – the director.

Even the studios and E.L. James have said that casting will not take place until a director is found, so we’re pretty sure we’re not going to discover who’ll be playing Christian Grey or Anastasia Steele until this is resolved.

It’s a tasty position for any budding director, and while Fifty Shades of Grey may not be considered high culture, it is pretty much guaranteed to be one of the biggest movies of the decade.

One director who is seeking to add his name to the list is Gus Van Sant, who has made quite an unusual demonstration on his bid to become director.


The twice Oscar-nominated director has shot a steamy scenes with one Christian Grey favorite, Alex Pettyfer, to land the job of director, according to the Wrap. Eager to prove he’s the ideal director, he shot the test reel at his own initiative.
