Henry Cavill talks Fifty Shades of Grey Will he be Christian Grey?

He’s been one of the fan favorites ever since Universal Studios and Focus Features bought the rights to the Fifty Shades of Grey books, and things seem to still be looking positive for Henry Cavill where Christian Grey is concerned.

While he has a huge fan following, especially since the actor is about to rocket into stardom as Superman in the latest Man of Steel movie, the 30-year-old British stud hasn’t been approached by the movie’s producers as of yet.


“Put it this way, I’ve not read a script, spoken to a producer or a director,” Cavill had said during a press conference, “Not exactly chaste writing, is it. I’ve always preferred the implied  scene anyway, because having it spelled out always seems a bit tacky. Sex is so readily available to us in every form of media now, so it’s no longer that exciting on screen.”

Does that mean that he wouldn’t be interested in the project? We somehow believe that if the actor were approached with the role, he would most likely take it.

However, it looks like the speculation behind the casting is continuing, even though the movie is scheduled for release around this time next year. Ian Somerhalder hasn’t kept it a secret that he would love the role in Fifty Shades of Grey, while other favorite Stephen Amell has stated that he will not be playing Christian Grey.


So far any news on casting has been very quiet, and despite the rumors about the producers Dana Brunetti and Mike De Lucca meeting with Henry Cavill’s agency, it seems the former Tudors star hasn’t heard anything to suggest otherwise.

Cavill is hot property at the moment, so having his name attached to the movie would be a good move on Brunetti and De Lucca’s part, so we just have to wait and see if he’ll get cast or not.

To many fans, Henry Cavill is Christian Grey, with his classic good looks and charm. There is even a rumor that his fragrance campaign from a few years back inspired E.L. James’s creation of Christian Grey, where he took on the persona of a chic, elegant man with a helicopter and a beautiful brunette, with whom he got steamy with. Not to mention he inspired Edward Cullen for Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight, which later would go onto inspire E.L. James’s Fifty Shades of Grey.
