We have been kept updated about the scenes (outdoor, of course) which the cast and crew have been shooting in Vancouver and now when the producer of the film, Dana Brunetti has announced through Facebook that this the last week of shooting “Fifty Shades...” and the shoot will be wrapped up by the 23rd of February 2014, the fans are keeping their fingers crossed to watch the trailer of the racy adaptation of an equally racy novel.
With the shooting almost on the verge of wrapping up, we can also be hopeful that there will be no further delay, in releasing the film, than the already scheduled 13th of February 2015. Though almost a year is still left to go and the fans and the followers of the trilogy have to wait with bated breath, only a trailer can make this wait a little more bearable. For the fans of this money spinning novel, the wait to see the movie on the big screen started with the very announcement that the characters of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele will make progress from the pages of the book to the screen.
But, the wait just seemed to get longer with the unexplained delays in selecting the cast and then starting the shooting. Among many worthy contenders for the role of the BDSM loving self made billionaire, Christian Grey, British television actor, Charlie Hunnam was selected. But no sooner had he been selected than the rumours started floating around about how inappropriate he is as the dark and brooding character he is set to play onscreen. Among such speculation regarding the future of the venture, like a bolt from the blue it was revealed that Hunnam has bid adieu to “Fifty shades movie” citing his commitment to his long running television show, “Sons of Anarchy”, thus giving the people who sneered him another chance to enjoy.
After a lot of speculation again, Irish television actor and former Calvin Klein model, Jamie Dornan was finally selected to slip into (and out of, too,) the crisp shirts and fitted suits of Christian Grey. It was due to the sudden exit of Charlie Hunnam that the release of the film was pushed back and instead of the previously proposed release date of 1st August 2014, it has been moved back to 13th February 2015. With only a year left for the release, it is only natural that the fans have started clamouring for a trailer, to suffice them, momentarily, that is. If you want a proof of how crazy the fans are about the trailer, Twitter bears enough testimony.
