'50 Shades of Grey' Movie Cast: Henry Cavill Footage Has Females Swooning For Him As Christian (Videos)
While it won't come as a surprise to many of his loyalists, Man of Steel's Henry Cavill is back in Fifty Shades of Grey chatter once again as a potential suitor for the role of the S&M-crazed billionaire Christian Grey. The latest buzz comes in response to two recently fan-made trailers that have surfaced.
Both of the video clips feature the English actor as he would seemingly appear in the film adaptation of author E.L. James' saucy erotica.
One of the trailers, which was composed by Kayla Clarke, is nearly seven minutes long and stars former Gilmore Girls standout Alexis Bledel as Anastasia Steele while the other shorter clip is convincing as well at three minutes and 55 seconds in length.
The 29-year old was recently coined as the "Breakout Star of 2013" by Fandango. In the respective contest, Cavill beat out fellow British movie stars Nicholas Hoult and Sam Clafin of "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire," among several other notable male celebrities.
Many women will surely be pulling for Cavill to don the Grey role due to his dashing looks and well-chiseled physique.
"If the Man of Steel is the breakout star of 2013, then he totally should be #Christian Grey!" a fan of the franchise tweeted.
According to Details, Cavill had also spoken about the possibility of playing the hunky CEO.
"Whether that happens, that decision will be made at the time it has to be made. It would be a very different kind of thing than 'Man of Steel,'" Cavill stated.
Up until this point, the producers attached to the film have remained relatively mum on their casting approach.
Early in 2012, Focus Features and Universal Pictures purchased the rights to the "Fifty Shades." The racy novel has now sold well over 60 million copies and the film should do just as well.
