Now that Charlie Hunnam has backed out of the role of Christian Grey, the steamy part is up for grabs and Hollywood's hottest are vying for the part. Fifty Shades of Grey is set to hit theaters in August of 2014, so the filmmakers have to work fast. We can't help but hope one of these devastatingly handsome celebs is being considered, and in case Universal comes calling, we have our list ready! Here are our picks for the role of Christian Grey.
Who Should Play Christian Grey?
-
Chris Hemsworth
In a Rush to see hunky Hemsworth pick up the part? We don't blame you.
-
Ian Somerhalder
He may play a vampire on TV, but we suspect this dashing dreamboat is pretty hot-blooded making him a shoo-in for the role.
-
Alexander Skarsgard
This brooding actor already has fetish friendly down on True Blood so we expect S&M won't be a huge a leap.
-
Chris Pine
This Star Tek star can voyage into our hearts (and fantasies!) as Christian Grey any day.
-
Henry Cavill
Square-jawed and steely, Cavill would make the perfect Grey, but we'll still call him Superman.
-
Kellan Lutz
Recently cast as Hercules in an upcoming film, Kellan proves he can play strong as well as sexy making him perfect for this part.
-
Matt Bomer
He plays a rehabilitated criminal on White Collar, but we're pretty sure Bomer would steal our hearts in the part of Christian Grey.
-
Michael Fassbender
No stranger to intense and sexy roles, Fassbender wouldn't have to work fast to bend our resolve.
-
Ryan Gosling
It's probably a long shot, but we can't help hoping this indie-actor-turned-mega-star will consider this steamy role.
-
Jude Law
Don't discount golden boy Jude Law! We think the British charmer would make a great Grey.
