Fifty Shades of Grey Movie: Who Should Play Kate Kavanagh?

The Fifty Shades of Grey movie producers have confirmed that its release has been delayed until 2015 , but have yet to address the biggest remaining casting question: Who should play Kate Kavanagh, Anastasia Steele’s BFF? The much-talked about project’s casting is almost complete. Anastasia (Dakota Johnson) has her Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan), and his big brother Elliott ( Luke Grimes ) is also in the mix. But no Kate yet. The effervescent college roommate of Ana also forges a relationship with Elliott, so this is a key role. One we still get to play fantasy casting with! Some blonde beauties who would be quality Kate Kavanaghs … Kaley Cuoco. The Big Bang Theory star is vivacious and outgoing , not to mention every guy’s dream girl. Hard to go wrong ever. Amber Heard. A sexy bombshell like Kate, her striking, delicate features and hourglass figure make for quite a package. Plus, she’s talented! Katrina Bowden. The 30 Rock alum looks the part, and could be a lesser-known face than other stars on this list who might overshadow Ana. Blake Lively. Gossip Girl ‘s leading lady is a fan favorite for Kate. Julianne Hough. Because Grey is the new black … face. Sorry.

Fifty Shades of Grey Movie Production Delayed Due to Casting Change

The Fifty Shades of Grey movie has its leading man – for the second time – but the casting change has forced a month-long delay in the start of production. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Charlie Hunnam’s departure from the role of Christian Grey, which went to Jamie Dornan , has put off the production. Fifty Shades of Grey Production Delayed The movie was initially set to start filming in early November. Now it won’t begin until December 2 , which could jeopardize its August 1, 2014 release date. Nothing has been decided regarding the latter point, but if they can get it filmed in 3-4 months, that still leaves another few more for any post-production. What is known is that Dakota Johnson will star as Anastasia Steele in the film alongside Dornan, who takes over for Hunnam as Ana’s lover Christian. Also in the cast are Luke Grimes as Elliot Grey , Christian Grey’s brother, and Jennifer Ehle as Anastasia’s mom. Sam Taylor-Johnson is set to direct. The idea that the Fifty Shades of Grey production would be delayed is also not surprising given the “polishing” of the script first written by Kelly Marcel. Marcel penned the script, which Patrick Marber hopped on to “do a polish and character work,” and now Mark Bomback is also on board to revise. While producers often bring a new writer on as shooting draws nearer, Bomback’s arrival on the scene as the third scribe a bit of an eyebrow-raiser. He worked on the 2008 sex club thriller Deception , starring Michelle Williams, Hugh Jackman and Ewan McGregor, so he’s got credentials at least. As for the two leads … tell us what you think below! Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey …   Yes, look at him! No way! Who?!? View Poll » Dakota Johnson as Ana Steele …   Perfect! Terrible! Who?!? View Poll »

Luke Grimes has won the role of Elliot, Christian Grey’s brother, in the Fifty Shades of Grey movie, filling in another key piece of the casting puzzle. The 29-year-old will join Jamie Dornan as his on-screen brother and Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele in the film, which begins shooting next month. Anastasia’s roommate Kate Kavanagh , and Christian’s mother and bodyguard, are among the supporting roles still open in the much-talked about project.

He is funny, affectionate, and laid-back. He is the adopted, elder brother to Christian Grey and Mia Grey. He is first introduced in Fifty Shades of Grey , when he accompanies his brother Christian to pick up a drunk Anastasia Steele at a bar in Portland. There he meets Kate, who becomes his own romantic interest. Think he’s a good fit for the film, readers? Who would you like to see as Kate alongside Elliot?

Jerry Moon’s Family Finds Another Man’s Body In Father’s Casket, Learns Father Was Cremated

The common question around these parts is “who’s your daddy?” This time, however, it’s “where’s your daddy?” Jerry Moon’s family received the shock of their lives when they opened their late father’s casket to say goodbye and found that his body wasn’t in it.  Wrong Body Found Inside Casket During Man’s Funeral Moon, 72, who had been living in a hospice care facility, passed away around the same time as a 97-year-old man from the same facility. The bodies were taken to the same funeral home where the 97 year old man was dressed in Moon’s clothing and placed into Moon’s casket while Moon was cremated, a final wish he didn’t make. Brian Moon says his father was “terrified” of being cremated. “He didn’t want any part of it.” Moon’s daughter Cheryl says it feels like her father “was treated as a number, not a person.” Authorities are investigating two funeral homes who may have been involved in the mix-up. If found responsible, they could face fines or suspensions but at this point it’s too early to tell which funeral home cremated the wrong man. A case of mistaken identity like this one makes the idea of face tattoos  seem sensible. Branding a name across one’s face might make it just a little harder to get two dead bodies confused, right?

Julie Sondra Decker Discusses Being Asexual, Is Told She "Needs A Good Raping"

Julie Sondra Decker, a 35 year old woman from Tampa, Florida, calls herself asexual . People tell her she just “needs a good raping” in order to find her missing libido. Screeeeeeeeeeeeech!!!! Yeah. That’s what we said, too. Miss Decker, who lives alone in her two-bedroom apartment, has no interest in dating, sex, or finding another asexual with whom to share her life. Over the years she’s had more offers of sex than she “wants to count” but feels that “without the feelings that usually go with that sort of thing, it’s kind of gross.” Decker has known she was asexual since she was 15 years old. Her parents and family believed her to be a closeted lesbian and even went so far as to take her to doctors when she didn’t show “normal” interest in either the same or opposite sex.  Once given the all-clear from physicians, she went on to attend the University of Florida where she graduated in 2000 with degrees in Elementary Education and Psychology.  Despite the fact that she lives an openly asexual life, friends, particularly male friends, still try to “fix” her by kissing her against her will and insisting that one day she will “wake up.” Since opening up online about her asexual life, she’s received death threats and multiple comments that what she really needs is a “good raping.” Miss Decker hopes to raise awareness about asexuality by being openly writing and speaking about her life. “I’m not damaged, lonely, or in need of conversion because I’m not interested [in sex].” “As far as I can tell, I’ll be happy being single my whole life,” says Decker. Who can argue with that?

Cee Lo Green Pleads Not Guilty to Drug Charge, Cleared of Sexual Assault

The Voice coach Cee Lo Green has been charged with one felony count of furnishing a controlled substance, the L.A. County D.A.’s Office confirms. Cee Lo pleaded not guilty to the charge, which stemmed from a sexual assault allegation. A woman accused Green of taking advantage of her while on ecstasy. Cee Lo Green Pleads Not Guilty Green, whose real name is Thomas DeCarlo Callaway, “allegedly slipped ecstacy to a 33-year-old female” on a date last summer, according to the D.A. Green, 39, and the woman later went back to her hotel room, but the prosecutors declined to file sexual assault charges , “citing insufficient evidence.” The woman had previously accused Green of spiking her drink, which the singer denied. He cooperated with and even encouraged a police investigation. Among the problems with her claim that Cee Lo behaved shadily that night? The fact that the two had dated for several months and been intimate before. Whatever happened, officials determined there wasn’t evidence of wrongdoing on his part, except for having the drug, which he apparently admitted on tape. If convicted, Green faces up to four years in prison, although more likely, he won’t do any time as a first offender. He is due back in court November 20.

Charlie Hunnam on Fifty Shades of Grey Exit: I Want to Move on to a New Chapter in Life

Charlie Hunnam wants to move on to a new chapter in life. The actor spoke publicly for the first time since bailing on the Fifty Shades of Grey movie. At the 2nd annual “Hogs for Heart” event benefiting One Heart Source Education Programs in Burbank, the Sons of Anarchy actor broke his silence. “I am doing good. I am just really concentrating on work. It’s been a really busy time,” he said, revealing a factor in his personal life we weren’t aware of. “I have had some family stuff going on so just trying to stay focused and positive and keep trying to do a good job at work and be with my family and stay positive.” The 33-year-old actor’s father, Billy, had passed away in May of this year and Charlie traveled back to his native England to be with family at the time. Hunnam bailed on Fifty Shades after being cast in the lead role a little over a month prior. He gave no reason for doing so beyond the token scheduling conflicts. There are rumors that a lack of creative control bothered him, combined with a desire not to be typecast or ridiculously famous a la Robert Pattinson. In any case, Jamie Dornan is said to be the leading candidate to replace Charlie, who’s currently wrapping up Season 6 of Sons . What comes next? “Like I said, I’ve got some family stuff I have to tend to. So when I wrap the show, I am going to go to England and see my people,” he continued. “And then I have a film that I am doing with Guillermo [del Toro]. So I am going to go and do that and concentrate on the final seasons of Sons .” “There’s rumor that we might do a couple of more episodes and do a little bit of an extended season next year, so we will see if that happens. It may or it may not.” “But I just want to finish that strong and go on to a new chapter of life.” One that does not include starring as Christian Grey. With Charlie out, for better or worse, who do you think should step into the steamy role?

Walter White Obituary: Published in Albuquerque Journal!

Walter White’s death on Sunday’s Breaking Bad finale has been immortalized by his hometown Albuquerque Journal , which ran an obituary for the character. The photo chosen is from his pre-Heisenberg days. No hat: Walt is listed as co-founder of Gray Matter – which ended up being a key plot point –  and died from a “long battle with lung cancer, and a gunshot wound.” Skyler, meanwhile, apparently dropped the White surname. In lieu of flowers for the fallen meth kingpin, the notice of his death says “donations can be made to a drug abuse prevention charity of your choice.” The Albuquerque Journal says the obituary for the iconic TV character was designed, written and paid for by a group of die-hard Breaking Bad fans. That’s awesome.
