The rumors are rife but they are false. Ian Somerhalder’s alleged substitution of Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey in the second installment of the “Fifty Shades” movie series is not true. Check the details below.

Ian Somerhalder To Replace Jamie Dornan As Christian Grey?

In his recent appearance in "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" to advertise his new film "The Fall," Dornan shared his thoughts on the endless speculations that Somerhalder is replacing him on "Fifty Shades Darker.”

"That would be really hard for them to do, considering we shot both of the movies. That's an expensive mistake, I'll put it that way. But good luck to him-he'll be great!"

Did Dornan just slam the false claims on his role? He just. In fact, the production for "Fifty Shades Darker” has been finished and is slated to hit theaters on February 10, 2017.

Despite allegations that the Northern Irish actor is giving up on James Foley’s latest offering, he will reprise his role as the billionaire Mr. Grey along Dakota Johnson’s Anastasia Steele. However, the role of Leila Williams remains unfilled. Will Kendall Jenner or Lucy Hale take it?

‘The Vampire Diaries’ Star To Play As ‘Fifty Shades Darker’s’ Jack Hyde?

According to recent reports, Somerhalder and Theo James are the names considered for the role of Jack Hyde following Henry Cavill’s confirmation that he is not cast in the erotic franchise.

“The Vampire Diaries” star efficiently and effectively portrayed his dark role as Damon, hence, making him a clever choice to play Hyde’s character. As with Theo James, his Hugo Boss perfume campaign has sparked beliefs that he is an ideal man to deliver Hyde’s role.

While both celebrities deserve the role, presumptions must come to an end as Eric Johnson already took the slot.
