Marlon Wayans' 'Fifty Shades of Grey' Parody Gets Dirty and Freaky Trailer
After this year's adaptation of E.L. James' Fifty Shades of Grey put S&M into theaters and turned Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan into superstars, now it's time for the spoofs and parodies, and the trailer for Marlon Wayans' Fifty Shades of Black is all kinds of disturbing.
Set for a February 2016 release date all over the world, Fifty Shades of Black is just as it sounds, a spoof of the popular erotic novel turned into film, and it stars Wayans in the role of Christian Black and Bridesmaids actress Kali Hawk in the Anastasia Steele-like role of Hannah.
Out Magazine describes the upcoming film as the "spoof we all deserve," as it not only parodies the popular adaptation (one of the earliest box office smashes of 2015) but also a number of other major pop culture events in the past months, including that infamous Kim Kardashian Paper Magazine cover where she broke the Internet.
The Wayans' brothers have made a career out of creating film parodies, with Scary Movie being their ultimate brand with four sequels, although recently, Wayans has also found success with his Paranormal Activity spoof, A Haunted House.
Still, he has said that spoofing Shades was probably the easiest experience so far.
"It's amazing when a film of this caliber comes along begging to be made fun of," the multi-talented comedian recently told Jezebel. "I'm really happy to be doing what I love with people I love to do it with. That double entendre was intentional."
In all, this is supposed to be a more realistic portrayal of the reactions in the film, including the fairly odd antics billionaire Christian Grey/Black does in the original material.
Besides Wayans and Hawk, the cast of the upcoming 50 Shades of Black includes legendary actress Jane Seymour and Mike Epps among a larger cast. Watch the red band trailer below!
