Whoever it was said ‘romance was dead’, was probably called Christian Grey.
The first trailer for the film based on E.L. James’ best-selling erotic novel, which is due out to hit the big screen February 14th 2015, was revealed earlier today much to the delight of women all over the globe.
The movie’s leading lady and gent, Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan, sat down to chat all thing 50 Shades Of Grey on The Today Show and the pair answered one question that we’ve all been wondering – just how romantic were those steamy sex scenes?
As it turns out, they weren’t quite as we’d imagine them to be.
Johnson, the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson, told the show’s host that the raunchy scene were “not romantic at all”.
The 24-year-old who plays the role of Anastasia Steele explained: “It’s not, like, a romantic situation. It’s more, like, technical and choreographed and less … it’s more of a task”. A task that we wouldn’t mind undertaking.
Her response left co-star Dornan, Mr. Christian Grey himself, pretending to be somewhat hurt, as he jokingly uttered, “wow”.
The 32-year-old actor from Hollywood in Belfast highlighted the importance of “trust” when it comes to these scenes and admitted that the pair did have undeniable chemistry, otherwise they would not have been cast.
“That’s a big part of it,” he admitted, “having trust”.
“Because, you know, we got ourselves into situations that don’t feel that sort of natural and they’re not that easy and you need to have the trust there”.
Just in case you’ve been hiding under that rock of yours for the entire day, here is THAT trailer… *Grabs sheets of paper and begins to fan oneself for the fiftieth time today*
Did someone say ‘hit the replay button’? Okay then…
