IT’S DARKER

Hold onto you riding crops, Shadies – Darker is here. Social media is in an absolute frenzy today over the commencement of Fifty Shades Darker filming. Paparazzi’s and fans alike have all gathered in downtown Vancouver, BC to catch a glimpse of the first day of filming. And for those of us who aren’t in Vancouver, the ride thus far has been just as chaotic. It’s hard to tell which way is up or down today with all the news, pictures, videos and sightings.

DAKOTA JOHNSON arrived in Vancouver early yesterday afternoon as she was slated to begin filming scenes today. Johnson had just left the BAFTAs over in London to make the lengthy nine-hour flight to Vancouver where photographers met her at the gate. For being so busy, Johnson looked incredible and ready to head into the Darker side of filming.

JAMIE DORNAN however, is scheduled to arrive in Vancouver in early March. With the pending birth of his and wife Amelia’s new baby, we’re sure Dornan wants to make sure that all is well before heading across the globe. We are working on establishing Dornan’s arrival date.

Everyone from E L James (Author), James Foley (Director), Niall Leonard (Writer) to Dakota Johnson and Eric Johnson have been seen on set today. Remember, it’s only day one so there’s much more excitement to come!

Feel free to browse through all of today’s filming pictures in the gallery. We will add more as we receive them.

Big thanks to @KingsCourtAutographs for sharing such stunning pictures of the set with us!

BELLA HEATHCOTE JOINS CAST OF FIFTY SHADES DARKER, FREED AS CHRISTIAN’S EX-SUB

ANASTASIA STEELE • BELLA HEATHCOTE • CANADA • CASTING • CHRISTIAN GREY • DAKOTA JOHNSON • E.L. JAMES • FIFTY SHADES • FIFTY SHADES DARKER • FIFTY SHADES FREED • FILMING • GREY • JAMIE DORNAN • JAMIE DORNAN AND DAKOTA JOHNSON • LEILA WILLIAMS • PARIS • VANCOUVER • YVR

WHAT DO YOU HAVE THAT I DON’T?

News came much to the surprise of the Fifty Shades of Grey fandom today that a crucial member of the trilogy’s cast had finally been added. Bella Heathcote will play the strange, mentally ill and elusive Leila Williams, Christian Grey’s ex-submissive in both Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed.

Leila is a crucial part to the series and plays a very cryptic role. After finding a picture of her ex-dom and his new girlfriend at Ana’s graduation, Leila goes on the hunt for Ana, seeking answers as to what makes Ana different from Leila, and all the rest (of Christian’s past submissives.) As Christian has never publicly had a girlfriend before, only submissives, Leila’s interests are piqued and she sets out on a quest to confront Ana and Christian – but it gets creepy along the way. She stalks Christian’s apartment, watches them sleep and even pulls a gun on Ana. It’s a crucial moment in the story that leads to Christian breaking down, allowing his walls to crumble and finally letting Ana in. Without Leila, Christian may have never been forced to face his demons.

Heathcote is a popular actress who hails from down unda, Australia. Her work includes Dark Shadows opposite Johnny Depp and In Time opposite Amanda Seyfried and Justin Timberlake. However, it was her work as Victoria Winters in Dark Shadows that proves she’s capable of taking on the challenging role of Williams. Her glassy blue eyes and pale, light skin are all attributes well associated with the delusional Leila. Fans have taken to the news extremely well, welcoming her into the #FiftyFamily and spreading nothing but positive feedback regarding the casting choice.

Fifty Shades Darker and Freed will film simultaneously in Vancouver, BC, Canada and for a few days in Paris, France beginning February 16th, 2016 through mid July 2016. Darker is slated to release on February 10th, 2017 while Freed will release just shy of a year later on February 9th, 2018.

JAMIE DORNAN ARRIVES IN VANCOUVER FOR FIFTY SHADES DARKER, FREED SHOOTS

BRITISH COLUMBIA • CANADA • CHRISTIAN GREY • FIFTY SHADES • FIFTY SHADES DARKER • FIFTY SHADES FREED • FILMING • GREY • JAMIE DORNAN • VANCOUVER • YVR

CHRISTIAN GREY HAS LANDED

Well this is quite a story so bare with us for a moment while we go from start to finish.

Saturday morning at approximately 3:30am EST, EJD came across a photo, which included Jamie’s handwriting and legendary signature made out on a piece of Club World stationery. Club World is the First Class Cabin on British Airways. We immediately contacted the source for information, and after a few hours, they generously replied. Below are details which were told to us, verbatim:

When asked if they could elaborate on the picture they posted of Jamie’s autograph:

Source: “… All I can say was that he was a pleasant and charming gentleman, nicely dressed in skinny jeans, a tight-fitting tee shirt and spoke softly in his Northern-Irish accent. He had a good sleep in the flat-bed seats of our Club World Cabin. He is in Vancouver for filming. He looks in very good shape from a fitness point of view and is currently clean-shaven. I hope this helps, but please don’t use my name in any conversations about him.”

Source: “…He’s an extremely nice guy, which is always refreshing as some celebs can be quite ‘up themselves’ when not on the stage or tv etc. Definitely looks like he’s been working hard in the gym since I saw him in the movie!”

When asked if Jamie was with Amelia and D:

Source: “No, he was all alone, as it was a working trip for him. I asked if he was here for the skiing, but he said “No, I wish.” I was actually the only person that recognised him, as I’d seen the movie with my wife. Other crew hadn’t seen it and most of the business men around him hadn’t a clue who he was! We had Matt Damon a few weeks ago and Jude Law before Christmas. Over the last 20 years, I’ve seen quite a few as I often work in First Class.”

When asked if they knew if Jamie was returning to the UK before filming starts:

Source: “He’s returning to the UK but I can’t tell you when. He’ll be in town for a few days though.”

The Source has given us consent to quote them but has asked that their name not be mentioned.

There has, understandably, been some doubt regarding this and whether or not our source is credible. Albeit, the details are extraordinary, but this source has claimed to have met many celebrities during his time with BA and thus, would probably know what to ask.

If any of the above turns out not to be true, falsified or elaborated on, we take full responsibility for the inaccuracies.

CHRISTIAN GREY HAS LANDED

It’s been a bit of a crazy day but in a nutshell, EJD stumbled upon a picture early this morning. It was an autograph by Jamie himself, while the source left the caption “Mr. Jamie Dornan (aka Christian Grey), gave me a few good tips on this evening’s flight to Vancouver…” Naturally, we investigated. We contacted the source and they have provided us, in great detail, confirmation that Jamie has arrived in Vancouver for Darker and Freed shoots.

We have asked the source if we can quote them on details and share with the public. We are awaiting their response.

Stay tuned to the site for an updated post.
