7 Reasons Dakota Johnson Will Nail 'Fifty Shades' Role
For those of you who are still on the fence about Dakota Johnson playing the leading lady for "Fifty Shades of Grey," here are a few arguments that may lean you more toward the positive side.
Johnson made this past Labor Day a working day for entertainment journalists when it was announced that the 24-year-old actress had landed the coveted role of Anastasia Steele in the screen adaptation of E.L. James' erotic bestseller. Her casting came as something of a surprise to fans of the novel, who were expecting (or at least fantasizing about) a more popular Hollywood star in the role, such as Emma Watson, Mila Kunis, Amanda Seyfried, or "Game of Thrones" dragon-lady Emilia Clarke.
While Dakota Johnson may not (yet) have the star power of those would-be contenders, she more than makes up for it in looks, personality, talent and just plain sheer will. Here are the reasons why she might not only be the best choice for Anastasia Steele, but perhaps also the only choice.
1. Her red-hot Elle photo shoot.
Pics from Dakota's recent photo shoot (see one of 'em above) for Elle Magazine hit the web on Thursday, and with them a brand new outlook on the, well, physical perks of the actress. Johnson looks gorgeous in the pics inspired by "Fifty Shades of Grey," showing off the kind of seduction skills that would certainly make troubled billionaire Christian Grey take notice ... and the rest of the world, too.
The Twitter-sphere also seems rather pleased with the shoot.
The photo spread and interview will be featured in the mag's March issue, which hits store shelves on Feb. 18 ... a late Valentine's Day present for all the fans out there.
2. She's prepared to go all the way.
"Fifty Shades of Grey" is notorious for the graphic sexual content that's made it one of the hottest beach reads of all time. While getting down n' dirty in the bedroom (or anywhere else) might make other actors give pause, Dakota Johnson doesn't seem to have any hesitations — or reservations — whatsoever.
"I don't have any problem doing anything," Johnson told Elle Magazine. "The secret is I have no shame."
Let's hope her co-star Jamie Dornan feels the same way, or the film might have an interesting twist on who is the 'dominant' sexual partner in at least the first few chapters of the relationship......
