'The Vampire Diaries' Star Ian Somerhalder To Replace Jamie Dornan As Christian Grey In 'Fifty Shades Freed?' NOT True!

A number of viewers are looking forward to Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) and Anastasia Steele's (Dakota Johnson) return in "Fifth Shades Darker" and "Fifty Shades Freed." Reports have it that Jamie Dornan might be replaced with "The Vampire Diaries" star Ian Somerhalder in the last film.

Nina Dobrev has left "The Vampire Diaries" to try her luck in the big screens and it looks like she made the right choice. Ian Somerhalder's ex-flame has a number of films on her plate including "xXx: Return of Xander Cage" with Vin Diesel.

There are rumors that the "TVD" star Ian Somerhalder is also moving to the big screens after the final run of "The Vampire Diaries." Reports have it that Nina Dobrev's ex-sweetheart will star in "Fifty Shades Freed" as Christian Grey, replacing Jamie Dornan.

Celeb Dirty Laundry initially suggests that Jamie Dornan is quitting in the "Fifty Shades" franchise. Although Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson turned on their viewers in their steamy love scenes on "Fifty Shades of Grey," the actor reportedly felt mocked and ridiculed for playing the controversial role.

This triggers the reports that Jamie Dornan will be replaced in the "Fifty Shades Darker" sequel. Following this, there are reports circulating online that the production has already found a replacement and it's no other than the "The Vampire Diaries" star Ian Somerhalder. Nina Dobrev's former screen partner will be Dakota Johnson's next Christian Grey in "Fifty Shades Freed."

For those who wish to see Ian Somerhalder in a steamy romance with Dakota Johnson in "Fifty Shades Freed," we suggest that you slow down. Although everything is possible, this scenario is unlikely to happen. Yes, it is very unlikely to see Ian Somerhalder taking on Jamie Dornan's role as Christian Grey in "Fifty Shades Freed" for a number of reasons.

Per Gossip Cop, first, Jamie Dornan did not quit the "Fifty Shades" franchise. The first publication that reported this only twists the actor's statement. Second, Jamie Dornan already filmed "Fifty Shades Darker" and "Fifty Shades Grey." The two "Fifty Shades" sequels were shot back-to-back over the summer.
