There have been a lot of rumors circling online that "Fifty Shades Darker" will be more daring than its first installment, "Fifty Shades of Grey." The film, which is slated to hit theaters in February next year, now teases that Jamie Dornan (who plays the sexy bad boy lead Christian Grey) will go full frontal with a catch -- a big bump to his talent fee, Hollywood Life reports.
According to the news outlet, Dornan will go all for an additional $1.5 million, and the team behind "Fifty Shades Darker" is exerting all efforts to give the audience a peek of Christian Grey with clothes off. Kpopstars notes that Dornan's contract for "Fifty Shades of Grey," "Fifty Shades Darker" and "Fifty Shades Freed" does not require him to strip all of his clothes in the big screen; however, the tides seem to have changed.
A source from Star magazine said, “They’re offering Jamie a bonus of $1.5 million to do a full-frontal scene in Fifty Shades Darker. That’s just a starting figure."
The insider even added that "Jamie would be crazy not to consider it."
But even though Dornan has been rumored to agree in going full frontal, the source said that the "Fifty Shades" team will not let it look subpar and will give the actor "creative control" over the scenes.
“They have assured Jamie that it won’t be overt but more of a brief tease – and he’ll have some creative control over how it’s handled,” the source revealed.
Dornan previously sat down with People to talk about his excitement in returning as Christian Grey for "Fifty Shades Darker." The 33-year-old actor told the publication, "I'm looking forward to embodying Christian again -- and getting a chance to show more of him."
Based on this statement, MoviePilot speculates that Dornan may be hinting that his character will be more revealing in the upcoming "Fifty Shades" sequel. This statement from Dornan also supports her co-lead star Dakota Johnson's statement to Elle Magazine. Johnson, who plays Anastasia Steele in "Fifty Shades Darker," previously revealed that she has "no shame" in doing NSFW scenes.
"I don’t have any problem doing anything. The secret is I have no shame. I think there's a part of a woman that wants to be the thing that breaks a man down," said Johnson. She also added that the role of Ana Steele is not that easy to portray as it requires a lot of sexual honesty, especially when filming sex scenes.
