In June it was announced that Sam Taylor-Johnson would be taking a seat in the director's chair for the film adaptation of E.L. James' Fifty Shades of Grey, which instantly ignited rumors that her much younger hubby, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, could very well land the role of Christian Grey.

However, while most ladies wouldn't be opposed to seeing the Kick-Ass star strip down for the part of the S&M-crazed billionaire, the actor has apparently "ruled out" such a scenario.

When the 23-year-old was queried by Metro on whether he was up for taking the raunchy role, and gave the following response:

"I mean, he is supposed to be the most gorgeous man on the f**king planet! And I am not old enough," he said.

Fifty Shades screenwriter Kelly Marcel, who's currently hard at work on the script, stated that she'd be staying true to the content of James' books with lots of sex and raunchiness. Only time will truly tell who ultimately will become the next Grey.

Shameless' Emmy Rossum an Anastasia Steele candidate?

The highly anticipated flick is scheduled to launch on the big screen on Thursday, Aug. 1, 2014. Be sure to check back for more of the latest info on the highly anticipated erotic film. Taylor-Johnson can be seen below in a trailer for one of his movies, Kick Ass 2.
