Charlie Hunnam’s Reason Why He Backed-Out As Christian on Fifty Shades

              Remember back in 2013? EL James, author of the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey, tweeted about Charlie Hunnam playing the rich and mysterious Christian Grey. Unfortunately, he turned it down.
          While we are still to wait when will the filming of FiftyShades Darker commence, or if they will still film it on the same filminglocations, July reports gave us all Hunnam’s answer why he did backed out from the said movie.
        A lot speculated, especially after a Hollywood insider’s report, that the actor was “overwhelmed” and got “cold feet” doing the role. But as it turned out, his statement was one of the most misunderstood statements to record.
           Hunnam has been silent about the issue on why he backed out regardless of the speculations about it.         He recently clarified why he did the move.
          In a post by Inquisitr.com, we can see Hunnam’s response on the issue which he gave on his interview with Moviefone. Based on the actor’s response, he cited how he felt sorry he had to turn it down but his schedules were tight.
        “I was going to finish Sons at like 11 p.m. Friday night, get on the plane Saturday morning to Vancouver for ‘Fifty,’ missing the whole first week of rehearsal and start shooting Monday morning. And I was going to shoot that film, wrap that on the Wednesday and the following Monday I was going to start shooting ‘Crimson Peak’ in Toronto. I just had like… frankly, something of a nervous breakdown.”
         While Hollywood Reporter’s claim seemed to be in line, their news about his move showed Hunnam was overwhelmed by the attention he will be getting from fans as well as the projects that lined out. This time however, with his clarification, the rumors on why he did backed out might cease.
       “I really didn’t want to fail on such a grand scale and I just couldn’t transition from Jax Teller to Christian Grey in 48 hours. I bit off more than I could chew and it was painful. I loved the character and I wanted to do it. It was just a sh*t situation. I was really, really, sorry to do it. It was one of those damned if you do, damned if you don’t situations.”

        We can all expect big surprises from the Fifty Shades Darker movie which is showing this Valentines 2017. Filming is yet to be announced but filming location might still be in Vancouver.
