Aaron Taylor-Johnson: Could he be Christian Grey?Having your significant other direct you in a racy movie called "50 Shades of Grey" might be awkward to some, but Aaron Taylor-Johnson wouldn't mind it. The "Kick-Ass 2" star is married to the adaptation's director, Sam Taylor-Johnson, and he told CNN that he'd "love" to work with his wife again after they collaborated on 2009's "Nowhere Boy."
"I’d love to work with Sam again, no question, without a doubt," Taylor-Johnson said. "I think she’s such an incredible director and she’s got such an incredible vision. And especially for something like this (which) she can do - no pun intended - with her hands tied behind her back and blindfolded." But - and you knew there was a "but" coming, didn't you? (again, no puns here!) - the 23-year-old just doesn't think he can pull off portraying a wealthy young bachelor with an S&M streak. "For me, Christian Grey - I just don’t fit the bill for Christian Grey, you know?" Taylor-Johnson said. It seems a few other actors do know exactly how he feels. Armie Hammer told his agent "thanks but no thanks" when the part was brought up, and Garrett Hedlund has reportedly passed on it as well.

He is 23 and she is 46....they have 2 children and 1 of them is 3......that means she was 43 with a 20 yr old....yuck
Matt Bomer = Christian Grey, ningún otro podría ser xD
Why not Ian Somerhalder? He is more than good looking enough, can act, and wants the part?!? This guy looks ick.
I haven't like his wife since she lost the Kentucky Derby. She's Fifty Shades of Yeccch.
Excellent!!!! Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!
I can do 50 Shades of Grey as well. My husband tells me that every night. No one cares to know about me, just like we dont care to know about the article. LOL
rumor is the woman has a penis.
What nasty looking woman.
Agreed. He's a very good looking guy (not in that picture) and his career is really taking off. it's time he stops acting like the sugar boy to that freaky lady.
Concur.
She may look nasty on the outside.
But she feels like a 23-year-old on the inside.
There is a toy surprise in every box!
we can log in from apple without her seeing anything. .this is getting fixed in 1 hr...law said she can take a hike.
said there is nothing in the writings that poses anything wrong ...out the block goes.
Christian Bale, Elijah Wood, or Stuart Townsend.
good comment ozzi7
He's the anti-Christian Grey. He's just the opposite of what i expect the bright, brilliant, powerfull and hansom Christian Grey will be
weird hair
I actually think he's perfect. He's sorta good looking, but also CREEPY. To me, I didn't get the book, but maybe that's why I feel that way.
That's his wife? They look more like bro & sis, don't they?
lol...I was thinking the same thing!
Why is hollywood wasting time and money on this "bound to fail" project? Clearly noone wants the book to be made into a fuilm but the dollar sign eyes have sprung up in some a–hol-es's eyes and now we will be punished for his greed with some sh!tty B-Grade soft po-rn with bad actors (since noone good wants to be assosiated with the film). Basically it's a deep fried tu-rd – looks good from the outside, but once you reach the creamy center, it's all sh!t!
He's actually quite handsome. That's a horrible picture.
Agreed. I think he is beautiful.
Fifty Shades Of Grey doesn't care-most are for the book.
Read Sylvia Day's, Crossfire series. It's also a trilogy...with a fourth soon to come. Trust me....this book (s) will put Fifty Shades trilogy to shame. Don't get me wrong, I love Shades, but once I read Crossfire.....I thought to myself....this is the one that needs to be made into a movie! Go to http://www.sylviaday.com....I guarantee...you will not be disappointed!
They are both very unattractive people.
confidence boost needed...

EWWWWW...really, if he gets the job, then there will be no doubt WHY he got it...and that would be the ONLY reason. EWWWW....*shudder*
What grade are you in, Betty? Most adults don't use the word "ewwww" past the 5th grade.
Those "50 Shades" books are so last year. By the time this movie gets made, will anybody really give a fcuk about it anymore?
