Hollywood also weighed in on the casting news, with outspoken writer Bret Easton Ellis sharing his approval and Lena Dunham posting several tweets about the news. Kate Mara and OUAT co-star Josh Dallas also shared their excitement for their friend's new gig.
I think that Jamie Dornan is the perfect choice to play Christian Grey in FIFTY SHADES OF GREY. Smartest casting decision in a long time.

I'm a monstrous @JamieDornan1 fan. Wasn't allowed to be attracted to him on The Fall bc he played a sexmurderer. 50 Shades is my big chance!

Wait, Christian Grey isn't a murderer right?

(Wistfully) I had my own Christian Grey once. But he used a towel for a bed sheet and had a fat friend named Jeff.

They should stop trying to find the right face for 50 Shades & just animate the film... & surely theres room for a few musical numbers?
