Charlie Hunnam and Dakota Johnson have been cast as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in the upcoming &#39;Fifty Shades of Grey&#39; film.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The film is based on an erotica novel of the same name by E.L. James, who made the announcement yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;I am delighted to let you know that the lovely Dakota Johnson has agreed to be our Anastasia in the film adaptation of &#39;Fifty Shades of Grey,&#39;&quot; James wrote on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/E_L_James\">Twitter<\/a>. &quot;The gorgeous and talented Charlie Hunnam will be Christian Grey in the film adaptation of &#39;Fifty Shades of Grey.&#39;&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Johnson, 23, is probably better prepared than most to be thrust into the spotlight. She is the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. While &#39;Fifty Shades&#39; will be her biggest role to date, Johnson has had minor roles in &#39;21 Jump Street&#39; and &#39;The Social Network.&#39; I hope she&#39;s ready to to find her inner Goddess.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Hunnam, on the other hand, is a bit more well known. The 33-year-old actor currently appears on TV series &#39;Sons of Anarchy,&#39; and has a pretty great resume, including the film &#39;Pacific Rim&#39; and Judd Apatow&#39;s short-lived television series, &#39;Undeclared.&#39;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#39;Fifty Shades of Grey&#39; is expected to hit theaters in August 2014.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of the film&#39;s casting?&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charlie Hunnam and Dakota Johnson will star in the upcoming film<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67430,"featured_media":75611,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[64593],"tags":[77824,77825,77823,77821,77822],"class_list":["post-54891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-whisper","tag-cheryl-gushue-makeup","tag-skin-tips","tag-low-cal-treats","tag-low-calorie-desserts","tag-low-calorie-ice-cream"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Fifty Shades of Grey Casts Christian and Anastasia - 29Secrets<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Charlie Hunnam and Dakota Johnson will star in the upcoming &#039;Fifty Shades of Grey&#039; film as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele.
