ALRIGHTY… its picture time!!
I’ve been keeping tabs on all this casting talk for the Fifty Shades movies and Wow, the more I think about it, the more I think these actors *points below* would be the PERFECT couple to play Ana and Christian. Their names are Lyndsy Fonseca and Scott Elrod.
What do you think of them as Ana and Christian?
Here’s Scott Elrod and here’s Lyndsy Fonseca.
I was looking into some of the Fifty Shades castings and I’ve been really unhappy with all this talk about all these big name actors being considered (Matt Bomer, Ian Somerhaler, Ryan Gosling… just NOT what I imagined)… but then I came across the name Scott Elrod…. and I googled him… and wow… he’s actually really freaking HOT and I think he could pull off the roll – can you imagine him with copper hair and grey contacts? I can!!
Then I read some people considering Lindsay Fonseca as Ana and I’d say that so far, she’s actually my fav name associated with the role by far. And I’ve seen her act and she can do innocent really well. Google them and see for yourself. … I really think they could work!
Also, there is a Facebook group devoted to Scott Elrod as Fifty Shades if you are interested… I’ve always thought it should be a talented UNKNOWN actor cast as Christian and he seems unknown enough that I had no clue who he was but he’s acted enough that he’s clearly not a newbie to the screen… so I guess he’s another possibility… he sure is HOT though, thats for sure! *fans self*
What do you think?
If you agree, please share this link around and maybe some of the people in charge will come across it: http://aestasbookblog.com/fifty-shades-casting-ideas/

I like Lyndsy as Ana but I wasn’t convinced by Scott for Christian..until I checked out that Facebook page! I think they look great. Totally agree that the roles should go to unknown actors. Ryan Gosling, so wrong!
Aestas says
Yay! I’m so glad you like them too – I really like them both individually and together. I love that he is relatively unknown and that she can play innocent well.
I totally agree – Ryan Gosling so wrong… I heard some people seriously wanting Simon Baker – ugh!! The man is over 40years old! *shudder* lol
I’m crossing my fingers for this couple – I think they are by far the best contenders yet!
amanda evans says
This is who ive had picked out from the very begining!!!! They are the best ones hands down to play Christain and Anastasia!!!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed
Loren says
Two absolutely beautiful people!!! Love, love, love Scott for Christian. Never really heard of Lindsay but she is beautiful and I’m sure would make a great Ana. I totally agree with not using the other big name hollywood stars.
Kristin says
They are exactly the two actors I picked, as well! Great minds… 🙂
Aestas says
Woohoo!! I’m so glad you guys approve! Please share this link around and hopefully we can raise some awareness about these guys for the movie 🙂
carlene vanscoyk says
Perfect..Scott is “Christian”…glad you see it to.
Lisa says
AHHHHHH!!!!!! I’ve said this from the very START!!!!!!! (Which can be found on my FB timeline as proof!). When I came across Lyndsy’s photo’s it was SO obvious that she would make the perfect Anastasia!!!! (which I also posted as such on Lyndsy Fonseca’s FB page) But I’m so glad someone agrees w/me! And u apparently have the “know how” to make a page about it! Which is awesome! I can’t do much more than email and FB! 😉 Oh and yes Scott is scorching hot! I haven’t seen anything indicating Lyndsy is at all interested in the role of Ana. Surely by now she should know her name is circulating around about it ( I, for one, have been posting her on every site that has anything to do w/ the role of Ana), and I’ve seen other Grey fans like her for the role as well, but no word from Lyndsy. I’d love to know if it’s even something she would consider, especially as she would have to be ok w/nudity…. Thanks for putting up this page, and those two’s pic’s together! They are MY Mr and Mrs Grey!!!!!!
Onelia Sorrentino says
you have written your blog perfectly to the way I feel…I am glad you googled Scott Elrod as I have about 2 months ago and discovered him…he would be the perfect Christian Grey…he is very Hot and Sexy.
Aestas says
Thanks guys!! I’m totally stoked that you guys agree :))
Seriously, let’s all share this link around everywhere we can (and its has a link back to the Scott Elrod for Fifty Shades Facebook page in it). If enough awareness gets raised, I’m sure the guys in charge will eventually notice. It would be so awesome if they got the parts!
Donna says
Scott Elrod was my pick right from the start! I haven’t seen anyone that I liked for Ana yet but I think the above actress is an excellent pick!
Lisa says
I totally agree with your picks!!! I have been a fan of Scott’s for awhile! He’s perfect for it and as I’m reading the last book, I can totally picture him as Christian!
jody says
I have been a fan of Scott’s since Men in Trees, he was awesome as Cash. He has been in some movies since then and he always shines. When I was reading the books he was the first actor that popped into my head as Christian. I truly believe he is absolutely perfect for the role. He certainly has the looks. Check out his guest role on NCIS LA where he is in a red room of pain
Louise Farmer says
Yes these two are perfect! First saw them on the Scott Elrod for Fifity Shades FB fan page and totally agree! Now we’ve sorted it how about the powers that be get down to the business of filming! FAST!
Isela B says
Yes I always said Scott Elrod is the perfect Christian Grey, & Lindsay Fonsecs is the perfect Anastasia Steele!!!
Jo says
Simon Baker would have been perfect 20 years ago. I used to have such a crush on him in E Street. (bad Aussie soap. ) 🙂
Ana says
Glad to see its not only me that can see Lyndsy as Anastasia. 🙂 I shared your page on my wall.
Maria N. says
I agree, these two would perfect!! The thought of Angelina Jolie play Ana was not a good idea, she’s a gorgeous woman but to me she has a dirty rep & I just can’t picture her as “innocent virgin” Ana. No offense Angie!
Adri says
Wooowwww!!!!! They look perfect!!! I never hear from him! But I’ll be more than happy to see him play Christian Grey part … Thanks for the info!
robin says
I totally agree with Scott Elrod and Lyndsy. I have said from the start that these actors need to be someone we are unfamiliar with. When you get so engulfed in the book, you can actually imagine what they both look like and boy, I tell ya, We hit it on the nail with these two!!!!
Kristin says
I just pinned you in my 50 Shades board on pinterest. 🙂
Aestas says
woohoo!!! Awesome! Spread the word 😀
I have a casting center board too on Pinterest – but I just started with them so its slowly building

Zedyyy says
Lyndsy Fonseca will never ever do on-screen nudity. There’s no way she will accept the role of Ana. Check out her tweets. BTW she hates Fifty Shades as well. While I prefer American girls for the role, Ana will be played by either an Aussie or a Brit. They usually don’t have nudity clause and willing to go the distance in way of sex and graphic nudity.
Lisa says
@ Zedyyy…..I did go check her tweets, ALL of June, but I didn’t find anything about FSOG. Found 1 tweet with slight reference, but no comments about it or the book. I’d like to know ur sources, and I wish Lyndsy really would make some kind of comment herself
Melissa says
I love Lyndsy But I like Jessie Pavelka for Christian better and they look SMOKIN hot together!!!
Aestas says
Jessie Pavela would make a gorgeous Christian…. I’d be totally happy with that choice too 🙂
Charlotte says
Never thought about anything much more than this book Wow!… Who is the guy on the original page, the black and white photo of him wearing a tux.. He is the image when I read!
Aestas says
The name of the guy on my original Fifty Shades page is is Tobias Cameroon. But he’s a model – not an actor… and overall, I’m not sure he has the right look even though that picture is probably the most perfect one I’ve ever seen for Christian.
Ana says
I suggest Ingo Rademacher for Christian.
malana weekes says
I think that you need someone fresh to act the part of Mr Christian Grey and Miss Anastia Steele omg i think this would be the best rude movie i ever see in the moviesi love the books i bought all 3 of them and i finish read them in a week time and am reading them again
