A Little More Eye Candy To Round Out The Cast
Okay, Fifty Shades Of Grey casting folks. You got me back… sort of. Y’all know I was devastated when Charlie Hunnam dropped out of the lead role as Christian Grey. I mean, devastated. And even though Jamie Dornan– a hottie in his own right– is the new Christian Grey, I was still nursing my Hunnam-related wounds. But now we have more good casting news! Luke Grimes from HBO‘s True Blood is now on board to play Christian Grey‘s brother, Elliot. I have yet to jump on the True Blood bandwagon (though I expect to binge-watch a few years from now on Netflix), so I don’t know much about this guy, but I have seen the pics, and well. Yes. I’m in.

Entertainment Weekly has the deets:
True Blood star and Brothers & Sisters alum Luke Grimes has joined the cast of Fifty Shades of Grey, EW confirmed Friday.
Variety initially reported that Grimes will be playing the role of Christian Grey’s brother in director Sam Taylor-Johnson’s big-screen adaptation of E L James’ bestseller. Dakota Johnson is playing the lead role of Anastasia Steele, and Wednesday reports surfaced that Irish actor Jamie Dornan was in final talks to play the part of Christian Grey. Focus and Universal have yet to confirm Dornan’s casting, but James did tweet a warm welcome to the actor on Thursday.
And here’s the official confirmation tweet:
I’ll need the True Blood fans to fill me in on this guy’s acting prowess. But if the goal is to get people to watch this movie by casting a plethora of really hot guys, then yeah. They’re doing an excellent job, LOL.
Here’s hoping we get more good news about the production, and that I eventually, fully recover from the pain of losing Charlie Hunnam. It’s gonna be difficult, but a few more hotties will probably move the process along. They still have to cast Jose (Anastasia’s photographer friend), so here’s hoping they find some hot, Latin eye candy for that one. I know, it’s superficial but c’mon. It is the Fifty Shades of Grey movie.
