Jamie Dornan News 2015: Actor Is Well Aware Of All The Hate For ’50 Shades Of Grey’ Film? [VIDEO]
Apparently, Jamie Dornan is well aware of all the hate his film 50 Shades of Grey has been getting lately, but he's not letting it get him down. The Irish actor recently said in a new interview that he's not letting his critics get the best of him.
In a new interview in the Guardian (via USA Today) this past week, Dornan said that he too had some doubts about starring in the movie at first, even though it's made him a household name.
He said, "There are times when I'll be like: 'Huh, someone made a Fifty Shades movie, that's funny.' And then I'll be like: 'Wait, I'm the guy?!'"
Production For 'Fifty Shades Darker' Should Begin Soon
The actor, who is married to British songstress Amelia Warner, also admitted that he's "in" on the joke about the film about how making a movie from the raunchy novel is quite hilarious to him.
He said, "You know, I'm not naive as to why people would think it was a bad (career) choice, or why there is a snobbery about it. But I'm also not stupid, and I knew with (director) Sam (Taylor-Johnson) and (cinematographer) Seamus McGarvey the film would be in safe hands. And, you know, it does no harm to be in a film that makes half a billion dollars."
He also says that he is willing to star in the film's sequel although he hasn't signed his name on the dotted line just yet.
"That was always the plan," he replied. As far as director Sam Taylor Johnson coming back, he said, "The plan was always for her to do them, so hopefully that will happen. But I don't think it's going to be imminent."
