Jamie Dornan Almost Lost a Role for Being 'Too Attractive'

Jamie Dornan sports some major scruff as he arrives to film some Fifty Shades of Grey re-shoots on Saturday (October 11) in Vancouver, Canada.

It was recently revealed that the 32-year-old actor almost lost his role in The Fall because of his looks!

“The initial intention was not to hire somebody who was that attractive,” his co-star Gillian Anderson told THR, adding,”[h]owever, it was clear that he was very much the man for the job. It didn’t have anything to do with his good looks, although in the process, we realized what that would do psychologically to the viewer. There was something intriguing about that, most definitely.”

Gillian added, “Jamie is one of the most grounded people I know. He has a really good head on his shoulders. He has a really lovely wife and a lovely family life with his new baby. He’s got it all in perspective and has a very appropriate and right-sized take on all of this. I don’t think he needs any advice.”
