Eh. The thing is, whoever's playing that role can only lose in my book. I know the masses love 50 Shades, but the fact remains that these books portray the BDSM lifestyle in a completely wrong light, and it infuriates me to no end. (I'm not the only one.)
So, out of respect of everyone who does live in the BDSM community, I was very relieved to see that Matt said no. Well, that's not the official statement, but the way he always squirmed when asked about the role, I'm pretty sure he declined. It would've been a nightmare. He'd've been great in the role of yummy sexy guy, but the plot is a slap to the face of everyone who's doing this whole BDSM thing correctly, and whoever's now attached to the movie will be side-eyed by those who know better.
