Irish hunk Jamie Dornan went from relative obscurity here in the States to man of the moment when he accepted the lead role in the film adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey. Rumors have been flying fast and furious about the film's content, and whether or not it would garner an NC-17 rating here in the US (spoiler alert: it won't), but it seems as if Dornan put the kibosh on those rumors in a recent interview.
Dornan chatted with Nigel Farndale of The Guardian (link below), and confirmed that it was in his contract not to show his naughty bits, which as any American will tell you is the only way to secure an NC-17 rating.
When asked how graphic the film is, he pauses, weighs his answer. “You want to appeal to as wide an audience as possible without grossing them out. You don’t want to make something gratuitous, and ugly, and graphic.”
So no sex then? “Sam is a very bright woman, so there might be some suggestive elements to it, but I haven’t seen it at this stage, so it is hard for me to say. I’m aware of what we shot, and it wasn’t as if we shot a film without any action.”
Was he completely in the nude? “There were contracts in place that said that viewers wouldn’t be seeing my, um…”
Todger? He laughs. “Yeah, my todger.”
Not like Ewan McGregor, then. He has it written into his contracts that his must be seen, at every possible opportunity. The laugh again. “Does he? Well, maybe Ewan has a more impressive girth.”
Sorry lads, it looks as though even an "Unrated" DVD release will be lacking Dornan's todger, meaning we'll have to make do with his ass, which is sure to be featured heavily if any of the pent-up housewives in attendance are going to get any enjoyment out of this Twilight fan fiction turned novel turned movie. Oh well, there's always the sequels.
