Although “Fifty Shades of Gray” (50 Shades of Gray) only came out in theaters 2 months ago, the producer is already preparing to promote part 2 – “Fifty Shades Darker”.
In recent months, Fifty Shades of Gray is a work that has received great attention from audiences and the media. Although the first part just premiered last Valentine’s Day, producer Universal is already planning to promote the next film called Fifty Shades Darker. Not only that, the first image of male lead Christian Gray (Jamie Dornan) in Fifty Shades Darker has also been published.
Thereby, the billionaire appeared extremely mysterious when wearing a tuxedo. He also carefully put a mask on his face. Many fans commented that Jamie Dornan looks much more attractive in such an elegant outfit. Many fans believe that the appearance of the character Christian Gray has been given more care by the producers compared to the first part.
In addition, Universal has officially confirmed the departure of Kelly Marcel as screenwriter since Fifty Shades of Gray. Author E.L James’ husband – Mr. Niall Leonard – was recruited to take on this position to replace Marcel. He has written the scripts of several television shows such as Ballykissangel, Wire in the Blood and Monarch of the Glen. Leonard even participated in the script editing process of Fifty Shades of Gray but did not reveal his identity in the credits.
Besides, the remaining two parts of the Fifty Shades series will also continue to “cover” the Valentine’s Day season in the coming years. Through this year’s CinemaCon event, Universal revealed the release schedule of Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed. If nothing changes, Fifty Shades Darker is expected to hit theaters on February 10, 2017 while part 3 will hit theaters on February 9, 2018 in the US.
