Robert Pattinson Was E.L. James' First Choice for Christian Grey but She Didn't Get Her Way

Fifty Shades of Grey fans were left stunned this weekend when author E.L. James revealed that Charlie Hunnam and Dakota Johnson will be playing Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in the movie adaptation of her wildly popular soft-core book. Most seemed to be pleased with the choice of Johnson for Ana, but many were all the hell? when they heard about Hunnam. For the longest time, it's seemed like the role of Christian would for sure wind up going to either Ian Sommerhalder or Matt Bomer -- Hunnam's name was rarely thrown into the mix. But now it's being revealed that neither Ian nor Matt was ever seriously considered for the role. But you know who was? Robert Pattinson! In fact, according to author Bret Easton Ellis, Pattinson was James' first choice.

Easton tweeted:

"Talked to E.L. James at a party over the summer: her first choice for Christian was Rob Pattinson. She and I were at Rob Pattinson's house when she admitted that Rob was first choice for Christian. When E.L. James asked me who I thought should be Christian I said 'James Deen, of course,' and then she shoved me. We were both very wasted."

I don't know what's more shocking: The fact that Ian and Matt were never considered for the roles, or that Robert Pattinson was James' first choice. Now, don't get me wrong, I think Rob is smokin', but first choice? Really? Totally can't see him in that role. In fact, I can see Kristen Stewart as Anastasia more than Rob as Christian.

And poor Charlie Hunnam. Not only are fans expressing their disappointment in him being cast in every corner of the world wide web, now Bret Easton Ellis is telling the world that he was James' runner-up for the role.

No matter what, there was going to be an uproar when the casting for Fifty Shades of Grey was finally revealed. We've all created images of who we think the perfect Christian and Ana are in our heads, and how could anyone top that? Even Ian or Matt?

That said, I think we'll all warm up to Hunnam playing Grey just fine.

See, I totally disagree with this! Actually, I have to agree with E.L. James on this one... Rob would have been the *perfect* Christian. I could see this. He has played some very twisted roles in other films and I think he would definitely do it perfectly. However, there is NO way Kristen could be her. HELL no! :nono :barf

LOL! He was totally her first choice because 50 shades started off as a Edward/Bella fanfic called Masters of the Universe that she changed the name the characters to publish it. I was really hoping Rob would have been cast aswell. Technically the character was written for him. I remember reading the fanfic awhile back it was really good. :)

Oh yeah...I read it forever ago. Before it was pulled off the net so that she could sell it as a book. Great f.f. The book is basically the same, just different names.

It's the so no one can steal the PDF and pawn it off as their own fanfic. I read the fan fic awhile back years ago I liked it. Then when 50 shades came out I started reading that and was like wait... Why do I feel like I've read this before? So I did some research and found out it was masters so I didn't bother with 50 shades. Lol. there's another one like that as well that's really good you should check out. I'll try and remember the name and send you a link.

Post subject:  Re: Robert Pattison News
Well yeah, I sort of figured it was stamped so no would steal it, but was curious what the letters stood for? I mean I know EL James is a fake name too... so I was just a weird sort of curious LMFAO

And that would be awesome! I downloaded the Calibre and it works great! :clap :clap Of course trying to find the time to read it is a whole other story as I'm too busy trying to fix things on here LOL

There is another book out recently that was also a B/E fanfic originally. It is actually a series also, but it started with The Submissive. It is written by Tara Me Sue. I read the f.f. but I haven't read the book yet to see if there are any differences. And James did go by Snowqueens Icedragons on FF.net
Author:  TabbyVolatile [ 09/25/13 17:05 ]
Post subject:  Re: Robert Pattison News
That's the one! That was a really good series. I've been sitting here trying to remember the name. Lol

Post subject:  Re: Robert Pattison News
Okay, never even heard of that one Cory! :lol

And Tabby-- I just got a brand new Kindle today and now you know I have a question for you... can I read the books you sent me on it by chance? :dunno :dunno Or I guess, do I just download the Calibre onto the Kindle?
