Condolences to Gus Van Sant, Darren Aronofsky, Angelina Jolie, and anyone else whose name has ever been mentioned (however falsely) in the context of directing Fifty Shades of Grey: The job has been filled. Sam Taylor-Johnson (Nowhere Boy) will direct the film adaptation of America’s favorite erotica book, meaning that the second round of Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Christian speculation begins now. (The first round was by Bret Easton Ellis, of course.) Or is it weird to cast your husband in Fifty Shades? Discuss.
