We already have a director for the two sequels of the popular romantic saga '50 Shades of Gray 'and it is none other than James Foley, a director who has brought us films such as 'Man face to face' ('At Close Range'), 'Obsessive passion' ('Fear') or 'Seducing a stranger' ('Perfect Stranger').
After great success of the first installment '50 Shades of Gray ' everything was stalled and finally the next two films were announced for 2017 and 2018, all of them always released on the weekend closest to Valentine's Day. The author of the original novel EL James was not happy with the script and direction, so screenwriter Kelly Marcel was left out of the project, which gave way to the author's husband Niall Leonard and director Sam Taylor-Johnson to the aforementioned James Foley.
All this delay plays against the saga itself that has not been able to take advantage of the pull of the great success of the first film and losing a full year makes viewers forget about all this phenomenon, although fans are well worth two more installments, since this franchise is going to continue giving money and a lot.
To avoid other possible delays, which would cause another year to be lost by not wanting to give up the release of the next two films on the aforementioned date. '50 Shades Darker '(' Fifty Shades Darker ') and '50 Shades Freed' ('Fifty Shades Freed') will be shot at the same time.
We remember that, despite various rumors, Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson to continue in lead roles by Christian Gray and Anastasia Steele.
