I think you've really got to cling to what makes sense to you. Obviously, I'm not a serial murderer in my real life, so that's where you have to delve into and do all the research. But, you have to find something likable in the character.

I'm not afraid to play the role of Christian Grey. Because I'm not like him. But I perfectly understand him. I never thought that he was a monster. He is simply woven from desires. As every one of us.

I’m not saying we had a playroom, but I’m not shocked by the sex in the book. It’s essential to tell the story. I can’t believe films that don’t invoke a sexual side of it. So it works for me.

I'd known plenty of people who'd worked with Cillian [Murphy], and he was one of those people I'd only heard good things about. It's pleasing when it works like this. As Cillian said, it's not always like that.

I guess I'm just lucky with my genes.
