With Saturday’s news that Charlie Hunnam has fallen off “Fifty Shades of Grey,” all eyes are on Universal and Focus to decide whether or not to delay production on the high-profile feature next month.
Playing out like a dramatic episode of “Entourage,” Saturday’s announcement that Hunnam and studio executives couldn’t work out the actor’s “Sons of Anarchy” schedule was immediately met with speculation around town. While it’s unknown what, if anything else, went into Hunnam’s decision, a handful of sources believe his schedule would have been figured out long before it was publicity announced that he was joining the film, leading some to suggest the actor was dissatisfied with the sexy part.
Based on the best-selling novel by E.L. James, “Fifty Shades of Grey” is a hard R film that requires plenty of onscreen nudity and lots of patience offscreen, in terms of dealing with the hardcore fan base.
