Will Gus Van Sant Direct Fifty Shades of Grey?

Focus Features and Universal Studios haven’t commented on the Good Will Hunting director’s candidacy for the movie, although they haven’t named any names in the director department at all.

Alex Pettyfer might be a favorite, but hasn’t been cast, although Van Sant used the actor to shoot a key scene where Ana Steele loses her virginity to Grey. However, things do look favorable to the actor, who is currently working with Universal Studios in the remake of Endless Love in Atlanta, not to mention that Gus Van Sant also worked on projects for Focus Features including Milk and Promised Land. It might just be coincidental, but things do seem interesting. to begin. There has also been a lot of drama, mostly from American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis who ended up in a Twitter war with the movie’s producer Dana Brunetti after the choice of Kelly Marcel as the writer.

Van Sant is a good director, and we could be sure that if the producers want to continue with a tasteful production of the erotic novel, then Van Sant is a good choice. Not to mention that since finishing his drama Promise Land the director has a free schedule that would allow him to work as soon as screenwriter Kelly Marcel finishes the script.
