50 Shades of Grey Movie Casting News UPDATE: Alexander Skarsgard, Alexis Bledel Star as Christian Grey, Anastasia Steele in Sexy, Seductive Trailer [VIDEO]
Another hot (and mock) "Fifty Shades of Grey" trailer recently hit the web... starring two leading Christian Grey and Anastasia Steel fan-favorites - Alexander Skarsgard and Alexis Bledel! A majority of the suggestive YouTube clip features the sexy and seductive 36-year-old "True Blood" heartthrob, with several shots taken from his drool-worthy Calvin Klein fragrance ad for "Encounter." Former "Gilmore Girls" starlet Bledel makes some quick cameos as the fresh-faced Ana Steele. Skarsgard's sexual dominance in the bedroom combined with Bledel's young and innocent persona makes for one sexy, passionate-driven trailer for a movie that hasn't even been officially cast yet! Would E.L. James approve?
As Mstarz originally reported, both Skarsgard and Bledel remain top fan-favorites to snag the highly-coveted roles of Mr. Grey and Miss Steele in the erotic film adaptation of "Fifty Shades." Check it out:
Alexander Skarsgard, 36, "True Blood" -
Skarsgard once admitted that he'd make the perfect Christian Grey because he already has experience playing a character with a sex dungeon on the provocative show "True Blood." He may be a little too old for the part (Grey starts off the trilogy at 27... Skarsgard's already 36) but such a sexy, mysterious vibe mixed with that smooth and cunning grin could make any Anastasia Steele buckle at the knees. Not to mention... it looks like Skarsgard packs some phenomenal heat under those pants, and he's admitted that he's comfortable with baring it all for the sake of good film and television.
What Mstarz is trying to get at is that Skarsgard would be perfect for the steamy "Fifty Shades" bedroom scenes because, as Linda Sharps of The Stir so cleverly points out, "Hello, Alexander Skarsgard's penis is a five-dollar footlong!" The image that provokes such viral "Fifty Shades" buzz was snapped Sunday evening (January 13) at the Warner Brothers/InStyle Golden Globes After-Party in Beverly Hills. Check it out... Is that a crease in Skarsgard's pants, or is he just happy to see us?
The tall and handsome Skarsgard looks totally sexy posing for cameras in his suave (GREY) suit... but the wandering eye can't help but to wonder what he's hiding underneath those dress pants! Totally Christian Grey worthy?
Alexis Bledel, 31, "Gilmore Girls" -
Bledel's innocent and down-to-earth demeanor - along with her fresh complexion, brunette locks, and striking blue eyes -has many "Fifty Shades" fans pining for her to snag the role of Anastasia Steele. The only problem in casting Bledel would be her age - Steele is described as a recent, 22-year-old college graduate. Considering Bledel is already in her 30s may present a problem later on in the film trilogy. Even so, Bledel still glows youth and charisma, which could greatly be used to her benefit. In a recent Mstarz poll, Bledel won a majority 26% of the vote, beating out several other actresses including Lucy Hale, Emma Watson, and Ashley Greene.
Now, let's combine the two as the hot and kinky Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele:
The steamy mock trailer was just posted on Feb. 25 by YouTube user 1tender1, and has already garnered close to 2,000 hits. And some fans already seem to dig the suggested casting:
duraniefan71: "I love it. Where did you find those bedroom scenes? I think he should play Christian Grey also... Yikes, going to watch again!"
SOTWISTED100: "I agree with 1tender1 view for Christian Grey. In my opinion Alex is perfect for the part. I doubt any actor or director would put there reputation in jeopardy for a film that is not of high caliber or sub par film. that comment was clearly made by someone who did not read the books. Fifty Shades of Grey is in such a big demand the only way the film would be mauled by critics is if they chose a actor who cant act. So don't worry about Alexander Skarsgard reputation. Whatever he does is awesome!!"
