The movie is expected to kick into production on December 2, a month later than originally planned. The release date has also been pushed back, from August 1 2014 to Valentine’s Day weekend 2015.

The problems arose when original leading man Charlie Hunnam, who was booked in August to play Christian Grey, dropped out due to scheduling issues.

He has been replaced by Jamie Dornan, a former boyfriend of British star Keira Knightley. Sam Taylor-Johnson is directing, and scriptwriters include British playwright Patrick Marber.
