Twilight couple will not play Anastasia and Christian in the upcoming movie

Fifty Shades of Grey may have been based originally on the Twilight books, but E.L. James has made it clear that Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are going nowhere near Anastasia and Christian in the movie adaptation of the books.

So far, many fans have pictured the Twilight couple in the role of Anastasia and Christian for the Fifty Shades of Grey movie that has been picked up by Universal Pictures and Focus Features that will be produced by The Social Network duo Dana Brunetti and Mike De Luca. Since the books were based on Stephenie Meyers’ bestselling series and that Anastasia and Christian were modeled on Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, it’s natural that many fans linked the young couple, who were also together in real life, with the Fifty Shades books.

Recently, our would be Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey have suffered a nasty breakup, due to Kristen cheating on her Robert, which has left a bitter taste in the mouth of many fans. E.L. James since has been vocal against the casting of the couple.

According to E.L. James, having Kristen and Robert in the roles of Anastasia and Christian would be “weird” and the author has been pretty obvious in being grossed out by the consideration.

So who would be a better option to take on the roles of Anastasia and Christian? At the moment fan favorites include Ryan Gosling, Matt Bomer and Ian Somerhalder for the role of Christian Grey, with actresses like Alexis Bledel, Emilia Clarke, Shailene Woodley and Lucy hale for the role of Anastasia Steele.

With the epic success of the erotic trilogy, it’s understandable that every single actor under 30 (or even over 30 in the case of Angelina Jolie) wants the role of Anastasia and Christian. The movie doesn’t even have a screenwriter yet it’s the most talked about production of the decade! Anyone can tell the movie that will tell the world the story of Anastasia and Christian on the big screen is going to be a smash hit. We have no idea who’ll get the much-coveted roles of Anastasia and Christian, but it won’t be RPatz and KStew, that’s for sure.

First Look at Anastasia Steele

A few weeks ago the world was treated to an artistic rendition of S&M loving heartthrob Christian Grey’s face. Now it seems Anastasia Steele has been given the same treatment. The Christian Grey sketch caused a lot of polarizing reactions, from love to hate so let’s see what the visualization of Anastasia Steele will have on the fans of the books.

The picture of Anastasia Steele is an unbiased drawing made by a sketch artist who created the face of Anastasia Steele based on the descriptions found in the books. One thing that is noticeable at first is that this Anastasia Steele looks nothing like Kristen Stewart of the Twilight fame, even though Anastasia Steele is supposed to be based on Bella Swan.

The sketch brings to live the lip-biting, big blued eyed, innocent college girl to life – but does this Anastasia Steele match the fans’ version?

In this case, let’s think of some appropriate actresses to take on the role of Anastasia Steele in the upcoming movie of Fifty Shades of Grey based on the sketch.

While she’s portrayed as a silvery blonde in the HBO series of A Game of Thrones, natural brunette Emilia Clarke certainly meets the criteria for Anastasia Steele – with soft brown hair, large blue eyes and alabaster skin. However, her role as commanding Queen Daenerys in the fantasy series makes her hard to imagine in the role as submissive Anastasia Steele.

Mila Kunis might be a bit old at 28, but she certainly has the look and most definitely the sass to portray Anastasia Steele. We can definitely imagine her driving Christian Grey crazy, and she is most definitely a hot choice to play Anastasia Steele – not to mention will draw some male audiences in.

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester may need to don a pair of blue contact lenses to cover up those big brown eyes of her, but she would also make an excellent choice to play Anastasia Steele. Meester has already done the relationship with young billionaires with strange fetishes in Gossip Girl already and most definitely has the acting chops to pull off a role like Anastasia Steele.
