Either Charlie Hunnam really did make one of the worst mistakes of her career by quitting the 50 Shades of Grey film or he just regrets missing out on a multi-million dollar paycheck. Either way, the Hollywood actor just can't help but bring up the reason why he left the film once again, even though no one is really asking him anymore.

In an new interview with Entertainment Weekly on Thursday, Hunnam - who was originally supposed to play Christian Grey until Jamie Dornan came along - says he still thinks his decision is a "sensitive" matter.

"It was very, very painful for me, that whole process, just very unpleasant," Hunnam tells EW. "I felt like I let myself down. I let those people down on Fifty Shades that I'd grown to really love and respect. It's just a really unpleasant period of time for me."

Hunnam also says that another reason why he left the film was because of scheduling conflicts and well, perhaps pressure from his peers.

"For the first time in my life, [I] had more work than I had time to do it. It's very hard to be disciplined in that situation and understand what is going to be required to all of that work to the best of your ability and have yourself surrounded by people," Hunnam said.

He added, "You see it all the time in Hollywood. There's a tendency to make hay while the sun shines and to capitalize on every second once somebody gets hot and people just get burnt out. That's what I started to do."

Do you think Hunnam should have played Christian Grey? Would he have done a better job than Jamie Dornan?
