Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson are set to return to the big screen for more Valentine’s dates in the Fifty Shades Of Grey sequels.
The Fifty Shades Of Grey stars, who play Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele respectively, will reprise their roles in the sequels, Fifty Shades Darker, and Fifty Shades Freed, Universal Pictures confirmed at CinemaCon in Las Vegas.
The second big-screen adaptation of EL James’ raunchy novels will be released in the UK on Friday February 10, 2017, with the third and final instalment following on Friday February 9, 2018.
EL’s husband, Niall Leonard, will write the screenplay for Fifty Shades Darker.
Sam Taylor-Johnson has announced she will not direct the sequels, saying: “While I will not be returning to direct the sequels, I wish nothing but success to whosoever takes on the exciting challenges of films two and three.”
The first film opened this year on Valentine’s Day weekend and became the biggest 18-rated opening ever, grossing 568 million US dollars (£375 million) worldwide.
