The 28-year-old actor reportedly has turned down the lead role of Christian Grey in the highly anticipated movie Fifty Shades of Grey, according to Us Weekly.

“Doing a possible trilogy was too big a commitment, and producers wouldn’t let him do just one film,” a source told the mag.

It was recently announced that Fifty Shades of Grey will be released on August 1, 2014 and it will be directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson!
