Immediately after we first received word that the mega-best-selling Fifty Shades of Grey by E.
L.
James had landed in the realm of adaptations in development, picked up by Universal and Focus Features, the casting rumors, wishes, and demands started flying.
Our own readers insisted on everyone from Christian Bale to Alexander Skarsgaard to Henry Cavil.
