'50 Shades of Grey' Movie Cast Rumors: Henry Cavill Disqualified As Christian Grey Due To Kaley Cuoco? [COUPLE VIDEO]
While no decisions on the 50 Shades of Grey movie casting front have yet to be made, the raunchy flick's creative brass are undoubtedly closer than ever to making a decision on who will play the groundbreaking role of Christian Grey.
Previous chatter had hinted that E.L. James' team would be making the official announcement over which actor would be the chosen one at next week's San Diego Comic-Con, but the popular author has since shot down the respective buzz.
One of the household names that's been continually surfacing as a fan favorite to don the role of the S&M-crazed billionaire is Man of Steele's Henry Cavill.
With his well-defined jaw and impeccable physique, the 30-year-old undoubtedly has all the attributes, as well as the female backing, to convincingly embody the highly publicized role.
However, despite Cavill's qualifications, his status as a Grey candidate has recently come under fire after news circulated that he and Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco are now an item, according to People.
Although the latest dirt on the actor's recently expired bachelorhood doesn't necessarily disqualify him as a Grey frontrunner, it certainly may affect his current standing in the eyes of the ladies.
50 Shades screenwriter Kelly Marcel, who's nearly finished writing the film script, stated that it would be staying true to the context of James' books with lots of sex and raunchiness. Producers are reportedly aiming for an NC-17 rating, according to a write-up in Style magazine.
The film is scheduled to debut on the big screen on August 1, 2014. Be sure to keep checking back for more of the latest details on the racy flick. The newbie couple can be seen together below during a recent outing.
