"When I got the part in Fifty Shades, my aunt loves all three books and said, "OMG, you're playing Jose Rodriguez!'" Rasuk told Variety Latino. (via ABC News) on Friday. "And I hadn't read the book yet so I asked her, 'Wait, am I going to get naked in the movie?'"
Although Rasuk doesn't need to strip, he wouldn't be opposed to it. "If I had to do it I would have," he said. Rasuk also said he related to his character Jose's unrequited feelings for Anastasia, who falls in love with the dashing Christian. "I related because it's the girl that got away or the girl you always loved and you never got to tell her how much you cared or that you wanted to be with her." Rasuk said. "I'm sure every one can relate to that."
Rasuk said that the character of Jose is exactly like he was in EL James' book, but that "the outcome is a little different. I don't want to give it away." But, that he thinks avid readers will be happy with the film, which comes out in 2015.
