Jamie Dornan, 34, reprises his role as Christian Grey, billionaire entrepreneur with an affinity for BDSM so well in Fifty Shades Darker but the burning question is, is he just like Christian Grey in real life? Well ladies, the man himself has spoken and the answer is no, not quite. It seems that Jamie doesn't have very much in common with Christian Grey In real life. Here are some snippets of what Jamie said recently in an interview with GQ Australia.
About Christian Grey: "He is not the sort of bloke I’d get along with. All my mates are easy going and quick to laugh – I wouldn’t imagine myself sat in a pub with him. I don’t think he would be my type, when it comes to choosing mates”
About Christian Grey's Lifestyle: "It was like nothing I'd experienced before. I'd never seen any form of S&M before this, I had no interest in that world. It doesn't float my boat. I've always been open-minded and liberal — I'd never judge anyone's sexual preference. Whatever gets people off is entirely up to them and there's a million different ways to please yourself, sexually."
On Acquiring His Newfound Fame: "It drives you mad because there's so much scrutiny and f*cking craziness surrounding this series of films. But I always had a strong belief that it would be a success and make a lot of money. You don't have to be a scientist to work out that 100 million readers of the book will translate into bums on seats in the cinema. But I didn't expect it to be this big, to be honest."
In fact, Jamie seems to shy away from social media, saying that there's not much point in maintaining his social media accounts when people seem to get more horrible as the public gets more interested in him. Yes, people can be judgemental at times and we can only imagine how he feels. Away from the movie set and all that goes with Jamie seems to prefer spending time with his wife and small baby away from the public eye rather than indulging in the Hollywood lifestyle.
So there we go, that's Jamie Dornan summed up for you, which of course takes away nothing from his role as Christian Grey on Fifty Shades Darker. With the recent furor on social media about all things Fifty Shades, one can only hope that the movie will live up to it's enormous expectations. We, of course, will definitely be making a trip down to the cinema to check it out for ourselves when it opens in February.
