50 Shades of Grey Movie Casting News UPDATE: Ian Somerhalder, Poppy Delevingne Spark MORE Sexy Christian Grey, Anastasia Steel Buzz, Ready for the Kink [POLL]
Mstars reports on it time and time again - some "Fifty Shades of Grey" fans just can't get enough Ian Somerhalder love. The "Vampire Diaries" heartthrob remains a top contender to snag the kinky role of Christian Grey in the steamy film adaptation of EL James' hit erotica novel - but who should play his sexy Anastasia Steele? Alexis Bledel, Lucy Hale, and Emilia Clarke still remain popular fan-favorites amongst a slew of other starlets... but one English bombshell has recently garnered some intense "Fifty Shades" attention - model Poppy Delevingne. The 26-year-old stunner is ready to enter the Hollywood limelight, and snagging the highly-coveted role of Miss Steele may be her perfect opportunity to do so. Such Ana Steele buzz has offered up mixed reactions from "Fifty Shades" fans... do readers think Delevinge could make the perfect kinky companion to the charming and seductive Mr. Grey (perhaps played by Somerhalder)?
This isn't the first time Delevingne's name has been associated with the role of the pretty, "innocent" Anastasia Steele. As Mstars originally reported:
While gorgeous British model and socialite Poppy Delevingne doesn't necessarily fit the part look-wise (with her mile-long legs and uber blonde hair) she definitely has the mysteriously sexy and tease-worthy persona down! Just check out the Delevingne's recent BDSM-inspired ad for Agent Provocateur entitled "Valentine's Night" - it'll keep several "Fifty Shades" fans begging for more!
One of England's beautiful "It" girls, Delevingne was first spotted by Storm Model Management founder Sarah Doukas, and she eventually went on to model for several prestigious brands and designers including Shiatzy Chen, Laura Ashley, Anya Hindmarch, Paige Adams, Mango, Alberta Ferretti, Burberry, Julien Macdonald, Marc Jacobs, and Louis Vuitton. Delevingne is a Young Ambassador for the British Fashion Council and a Chanel brand ambassador who is a prominent figure in the London social scene.
Delevinge (the older sis of top model, Cara) has no professional acting experience, but according to an inside source for the Daily Mail, she's ready to give it a try:
Poppy is increasingly keen to succeed as an actress in light of her sister's success. She feels that the time is right to redefine herself professionally.
Do fans think she'd succeed in portraying the naive and sexual Ana Steele? How about if she were to star alongside this Hollywood cutie:
And check out this amusing Somerhalder update, as reported by UK's Marie Claire:
The former "Lost" hottie remains a hot Christian Grey fan-favorite... and he knows it. In a recent interview with the AP, Somerhalder revealed that he recently locked eyes with a lady in a book shop while she was browsing through "Fifty Shades of Grey" in the checkout line. According to Somerhalder, they "totally had a moment."
Somerhalder reveals:
"You could see her blushing for a second. She saw that I saw the book, and I just smiled at her and said, 'It's a good read, huh?' And she goes, 'This so embarrassing.'"
He concludes with this suggestive statement - "Everybody's up for this role, but in her mind, just from seeing media, I was that guy."
How sexy! Maybe a little egotistic, but that's just another reason why several "Fifty Shades" fans find him the ideal Mr. Grey!
