Who will be ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’s’ Christian Grey? Henry Cavill or Matt Bomer

The highly anticipated film adaptation of E.L. James best-selling novel Fifty Shades of Grey has fans across the nation on the edge of their seat with who they will be casting for the film. The film will be released in August 2014 so filming should be in the works soon.

For those who have not read the addictive global phenomena Fifty Shades of Grey it is surrounded around a breathtaking gorgeous man Christian Grey. Grey is a seductive 27-year old billionaire who engages in an erotic S&M relationship with the inexperienced college graduate Anastasia Steele. Steele is far from his normal submissive and it ignites an emotional and passionate love story.

Fans have voiced their opinions and continue to make mock movie trailers. Vampire Diaries Ian Somerhalder was one of the fan favorites but according to Inquisitr, author E.L. James wasn’t even considering him for the role. US Magazine reported that James was at a Comic-Con party and told people “the part won’t go to Ian.” In addition Tron: Legacy Garrett Hedlund rejected the offer of being Christian Grey.

Weeding out the actors who don’t fit the role brings the top two favorites of the fans, Man of Steel Henry Cavill and White Collar Matt Bomer. Both have their array of fan made trailers that are extremely convincing.

According to International Business Times Cavill talked about the role of Christian Grey in a press conference saying, “"Put it this way, I've not read a script, spoken to a producer or a director... Not exactly chaste writing is it. I've always preferred the implied sex scene anyway, because having it spelled out always seems a bit tacky. Sex is so readily available to us in every form of media now, so it's no longer that exciting on screen.”

But don’t lose hope since it seems like he would be open to the role with him saying, “As an actor I don't think it should stop me from doing roles which may be great stories... I'm very much a storyteller, I enjoy telling stories and if there is a wonderful story to tell than I don't think having played the role of Superman will necessarily stop me from telling that story. The chances are it will very much be a different vehicle than what Superman is, so it won't damage any of that character...because they'll see two very different things on screen."

Mstars reports that a fan made trailer of Matt Bomer and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Alexis Bledel. Recently this duo has been a fan favorite for the starring roles of Fifty Shades of Grey. The fan mock trailer is steamy and hits close to the story’s vivid erotic details.

There have been reports of James mentioning three Hollywood stars she considered for the role. Fans are hopeful as ever with the anticipation of Cavill and Bomer being one of the three choices. Both men would be perfect for the role with their smoldering eyes and rugged attributes. In the end only one can be the infamous Christian Grey. Who do you want it to be? Are you team Cavill or team Bomer?
