The storyline of Fifty Shades of Grey revolves around Christian Grey, a billionaire businessman who brings an innocent girl Anastasia Steele into the world of his sadomasochism and sexual pleasures. With each sequel, the plot moves further to show the development of their relationship along with a thrilling twist.

Alongside Dakota and Jamie, the movies also star Rita Ora, Marcia Gay Harden, Luke Grimes, and others in different important characters. There were many candidates to play Christian Grey, including Ian Somerhalder, Charlie Hunman, and more. But finally, Jamie took the spot. Recently, in a conversation with TMZ, when the subject came up, Charlie exclaimed, “Aw man, can’t talk about this!” When the reporter pestered him to answer how dropping off from that movie affected him, the actor said, “I’m not nearly as rich as I would have been.”

However, earlier, Charlie told Life & Style, “I felt like I had an interesting take on that character and felt like I could have done a good job of playing Christian Grey, otherwise I wouldn’t have taken it on in the first place." But somehow the contract didn't work out for him. Now, the audience can't think of anyone else than Jamie Dornan as Grey.
