'50 Shades of Grey' Rumored Cast: Celebrities Express Their Opinions On Jamie Dornan As Christian Grey In Movie [VIDEO]
While a slew of celebrity fans of E.L. James' Fifty Shades of Grey are inevitably opposed to Charlie Hunnam's exit as Christian Grey, many have come forward to voice their excitement over his replacement, Jamie Dornan.
The 31-year-old little known Irishman's good looks and modeling background have undoubtedly given him some leverage with the lady fans.
Although many enthusiasts have predominantly preferred White Collar's Matt Bomer or Vampire Diaries' Ian Somerhalder, amongst other actors, Dornan has already amassed over 95,000 Twitter followers. To top it off, the rising star even added 2,000 new ones on Thursday.
On Oct. 24, Hugh Hefner's wife, Crystal Hefner took to the site to admit her excitement for Dornan.
"RT if you are excited for the 50 Shades of Grey movie starring @Jamie Dornan1!
Lena Dunham from HBO's Girl is also one of those fans, and couldn't help but to be stoked about Dornan's casting, as she took to the social networking site on Oct. 23 to express her approval.
"I'm a monstrous @Jamie Dornan1 fan. Wasn't allowed to be attracted to him on The Fall bc he played a sexmurderer. 50 Shades is my big chance!"
Fifty Shades screenwriter Kelly Marcel stated that she'd be adhering to the original content of author James' books with lots of sex and raunchiness. The highly anticipated movie is scheduled to launch in theaters on Thursday, Aug. 1, 2014.
