#GIVEAWAY: ENTER TO WIN ADVANCE PASSES TO SEE “FIFTY SHADES OF GREY” ACROSS CANADA
THIS VALENTINE’S DAY, THE WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON COMES TO LIFE. UNIVERSAL PICTURES PROUDLY PRESENTS FIFTY SHADES OF GREY. ARE YOU CURIOUS?
Universal Pictures Canada and Mr. Will want to take some extremely lucky Readers in Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Edmonton, Calgary, Montreal and Winnipeg to the most hotly-anticipated Movie of 2015. Temperatures are – pardon the pun – bound to rise this February and we want Willionaire$ to feel the heat first! Screenings take place Wednesday, February 11, 2015.
Official Synopis:
Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson), 21, is studying at Washington State University. She takes a writing assignment for the school paper to interview Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan), a 27-year-old successful and wealthy entrepreneur. Although she finds him intimidating, she’s instantly attracted to Christian.
He later shows up at the hardware store where she works part time and buys cable ties, masking tape and rope. They begin a relationship, but beforehand, he asks her to sign a non-disclosure agreement forbidding her to discuss anything that they do together. She learns he’s into BDSM and he then asks her to sign a second contract consenting to dominance and submission and tells her their relationship will not be romantic.
Official Artwork:

#FIRSTLOOK: OFFICIAL “FIFTY SHADES OF GREY” TRAILER
We saw a quick Teaser a few months back, but this brand-new Trailer for FIFTY SHADES OF GREY actually looks quite compelling! Dark, sexy, suspenseful, elegant – we knew Sam Taylor-Johnson would get the tone right. And well she did, especially considering how easily parodied the subject matter is…
See the sizzling new Trailer:
Official Synopsis:
Fifty Shades of Grey is the hotly anticipated film adaptation of the bestselling book that has become a global phenomenon. Since its release, the “Fifty Shades” trilogy has been translated into 51 languages worldwide and sold more than 100 million copies in e-book and print—making it one of the biggest and fastest-selling book series ever.
Stepping into the roles of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, who have become iconic to millions of readers, are Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson.
Joining Dornan and Johnson in the cast are Luke Grimes as Elliot, Christian‘s brother; Victor Rasuk as José, Anastasia‘s close friend; Eloise Mumford as Kate, Anastasia‘s best friend and roommate; Marcia Gay Harden as Dr. Grace Trevelyan Grey, Christian‘s mother; Rita Ora as Mia, Christian‘s sister; Max Martini as Taylor, Christian‘s bodyguard; Callum Keith Rennie as Ray, Anastasia‘s stepfather; Jennifer Ehle as Carla, Anastasia‘s mother; and Dylan Neal as Bob, Carla‘s husband.

#FIRSTLOOK: “50 SHADES OF GREY” TEASER TRAILER
“Mr. Grey will see you now.”.
At long last! The first Teaser Trailer for Vancouver-filmed FIFTY SHADES OF GREY finally has surfaced. Beyoncé hinted last week on her Social Media that she’d be involved and what we hear is a revamped version of her Crazy in Love.
Official Synopsis:
Fifty Shades of Grey is the hotly anticipated film adaptation of the bestselling book that has become a global phenomenon. Since its release, the “Fifty Shades” Trilogy has been translated into 51 languages worldwide and sold more than 100 million copies in e-book and print—making it one of the biggest and fastest-selling book series ever.

#FIRSTLOOK: CHARLIE HUNNAM & DAKOTA JOHNSON CAST IN “50 SHADES OF GREY”
He’s been touted as a Breakout Star for a while now, but make no mistake – Charlie Hunnam has been in the game for a while and will be for a long time. We just received news earlier today that the British Star of acclaimed Series Sons of Anarchy is about to become a Megastar.
Only in June was it announced that Sam Tayl0r-Johnson would be helming this Adaptation of E.L. James’ wildly popular Novels and now it has been confirmed that Charlie Hunnam is tied (pardon the pun) to the coveted role of Christian Grey for which many of Hollywood’s A-List Actors have been vying for. Don’t be shocked though, as Hunnam‘s Career has seen some daring moves including a fearless performance in 1999’s original Queer as Folk Series as as Nathan Maloney.
Confirmed in the Lead Actress Role of Anastasia Steele is Dakota Johnson, Daughter of Stars Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. Having sharpened her skills starring in now-defunct Comedy Series Ben and Kate, she also has appeared in popular Films like 21 Jump Street, The Social Network, Beastly and The Five-Year Engagement.
50 Shades of Grey centers on the intense, erotic relationship between a Student and a 27-year-old Billionaire. The Series of Novels by James has sold over 70-million Copies worldwide.
We had the pleasure of meeting both the Director Taylor-Johnson and Hunnam in 2012. Both are amazingly wonderful. Read more here and here.
Hunnam is set to return to Toronto this Fall to film Guillermo del Toro‘s Crimson Peak.
50 Shades of Grey releases August 1, 2014 via Focus Features & Universal Pictures.
