Will Robert Pattinson Land the Role of Christian Grey

Pattinson has been out of the game for a while, but after he invited the author of the Fifty Shades of Grey books to his star studded party in California, things are beginning to look interesting for Robert Pattinson. His connection with the Twilight franchise has been both a blessing and a curse. It’s understandable that E.L. James and the producers at Universal Studios and Focus Features want a fresh face, and don’t want the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise mixed up with the Twilight Saga, however there is no escaping the fact E.L. James was inspired by the vampire series written by Stephenie Meyers.
Christian Grey was based on Edward Cullen, so it wouldn’t be a stretch for Pattinson to get into the role. This could have its plus sides – Rob is a big star and would definitely bring a high profile name to the production, not to mention he’s a very talented actor, but the negatives outweigh the good. It would make the Twilight and Fifty Shades franchises almost inseparable.
Perhaps E.L. James’s attendance to the party is nothing more than a friendly gesture. Rob has been pretty quiet on the Fifty Shades of Grey movies, and even joked that he would feel the parody “Fifty Sheds of Grey” was more up his alley. The competition for Fifty Shades of Grey is fierce,with Henry Cavill, Ian Somerhalder and Matt Bomer competing for the top spot. One the girls’ end, things are less clear cut as the names seem to change regularly. One thing for sure, is that casting is just round the corner.
