Went on a tour of the evening shows, answering tricky questions Jimmy Kimmel, and James Corden.
Kimmel asked Jamie what kind of relationship he has with the actress after all the explicit scenes in which the partners had a chance to star.
“This will sound inappropriate, but we are almost like brother and sister. Because I’m married, and she…changed quite a lot of guys while we were filming. Everyone has their own life and we just show love and respect to each other. It seems to me that we already know each other very well, even to some extent in an intimate sense.".
When asked what Jamie used to cover his genitals during explicit scenes, the actor became embarrassed:
“Well, I put on such a tiny bag. Well, that is, this expression is, in fact, he is not so tiny. Yes, a normal big bag. On the set of the first film, I was given a whole range of these bags to choose from, so I took one, turned it inside out, and there was this strange inscription: “Prisoner Number 3”.
Jamie confirmed that Fifty Shades Freed was filmed back-to-back, and filming ended about 2 years ago.
"I have seen last film. They force us to watch...oh, well, I mean, we still had to refresh our memory of the film before the premiere anyway, since filming ended a long time ago. So I went to Universal Studios in London, where they have sort of their own cinema. But they don't allow you to watch this movie alone, in case you want to make a copy on your phone... Bullshit, of course. Like I would do that...So I watched it with the security guard. With such a big guy. Just the two of us. But before that I drank beer and periodically went to the toilet, so I spent part of the film there. But all these sex scenes...towards the end I was already burning with shame. And when the movie ended, the security guard said to me, “Cool, dude, high five!”.
In an interview with Ellen DeGeneres, Jamie admitted that his wife had not watched a single film about Anastasia and Christian.
“I don’t want to pay her for tickets to these films.”“, the actor joked.
In an interview with James Corden, Jamie spoke about, which at the beginning of his career was unknown to anyone famous actor his roommate.
“Eddie was desperate at the time. We both were. There was little work, we didn’t have much choice, we went to the same auditions, we both had the same agent. And I remember... it seems like it was in 2008, on the second day after we moved in together, a courier from our agency arrived with a huge stack of scripts, about 25 of them there. And Eddie and I immediately started fussing about who it was all intended for. It was all meant for me, and Eddie took it to heart. He called his agent to find out why "Jamie had just received a huge stack of scripts." An hour later, the courier arrived with exactly the same size stack of these same scripts for him.”.
The sequel to the acclaimed erotic blockbuster “50 Shades of Gray” ─ “Fifty Shades Darker” has been released in Russia. We decided to go through Johnson's latest interviews and find out who this shy brunette is, how she feels about her popularity and the role that brought her fame, and what will happen if you deprive her of whips and bandages.
At the premiere of "50 Shades Darker" (Los Angeles, February 2, 2017)Dakota Johnson is not yet 30. She is a daughter famous actors Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson and made her film debut at the age of 10. Then young Dakota starred in her stepfather Antonio Banderas’ film “A Woman Without Rules.” After 15 years and a little more than ten episodic roles, she gets the right to become a woman who will change sex life million Unexpected, right?
“When I read the book, I really liked Anastasia - she is honest, sincere, loving. I was glad to play her. Since I had to shoot nude, I wanted to look not just good, but very good! So I worked out a lot, ate healthy food and underwent more hair removal than any woman has ever dreamed of,” Johnson recalls about her participation in the film in an interview with American Glamor.
Of course, the main merit in the fight for sexual liberation and a sharp jump in sales of household ropes belongs to the well-known author of the sex bestseller E.L. James (pseudonym of the English writer Erica Leonard Mitchell). But still, it was Dakota who became the girl who gave her face and body to the previously faceless heroine. Now everyone can imagine what that same Anestesia looks like. It was the film adaptation of “50 Shades” that made the characters so real and desirable. Even if you haven't read the book, you know for sure that main character Romana is the owner of an angelic appearance, an immaculate look and a shy smile. And whose merit is this? That's right, Dakotas.
“Overall the film could have been a little more raunchy. True, we tried to make “Shades” as sexy as possible, but we also had the task of entering the box office with an R rating (viewing by persons under 16 years of age is allowed, but only “accompanied” by adults ─ approx. ed.), so some scenes had to be handled very delicately,” says the legendary Anne V. Coates, the 90-year-old Oscar winner and outstanding editor who was entrusted with working on the final version of “Fifty Shades of Gray.” It is she who is responsible for the appearance of naked body parts of Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson in the frame.
It’s interesting that in the end, Dakota’s participation in the film brought her mostly only problems: her then-boyfriend, musician of the rock band Drowners Matthew Heath, could not stand the test of his friend’s fame and left the girl without waiting for the premiere. Dakota herself admitted in an interview with The Telegraph: “There is something terrible in the fact that now absolutely everyone will know who I am. Naturally, I'm worried about this role. All the time. Even after the film was released, I periodically ask myself: “What the hell have I done?” But most of the time I’m still comfortable.” Probably, the actress’s romantic attitude towards this whole story played a large part in accepting the role and plot of the film. In her opinion, “50 Shades of Gray” is an amazing fairy tale about love. Only a true romantic could see tenderness in the middle of the “red room of pain” and love between the lines of the contract about sexual boundaries.
In confirmation is the confession of Johnson, who once told reporters that she was very afraid to tell her parents that she had received the role. Well, tell me, what kind of person will be embarrassed to tell his loved ones that he will star in a film that, if it does not become a cult, will definitely tear this world of cinema to shreds, collecting record amounts at the box office? “Yes, sex. Yes, a little whipping and vicious words. Let your breasts and butt be slightly visible in close-up, but your parents didn’t even do that on camera!” - Johnson can answer with confidence. But no, it didn’t matter to the girl that the role she received would glorify her like no one else. The family's opinion is more important. Isn't this a sign of humanity, which is so often denied in Hollywood?
Now it becomes clear why Dakota forbade her relatives from watching the film - there is no need for her relatives to see too much sex. Well, it’s her right, but something tells us that the parents broke the taboo after all. After all, their daughter became the face of a film that changed the lives of at least half the planet. Wouldn't you do that?
As for popularity, Dakota speaks very modestly about it and emphasizes that the real star of the film is Jamie Dornan. Here she is, of course, disingenuous. Even though the role of Christian Gray was truly fateful for the 33-year-old Briton, he cannot compete with the heroine of Dakota Johnson. Or rather, both characters and their performers stand on the same level of popularity. To imagine one without the other is a lost cause. Who would Gray have lashed with his whips if not for Johnson's heroine?
However, such modesty is quite understandable. Dakota grew up in an acting family, so she absorbed such concepts as fame and fame with her mother’s milk. Dozens of paparazzi with cameras at the ready may scare you, but when your parents are sex symbols of the 1980s, you begin to relate to all this, if not more simply, then certainly without “stardust.”
Direct speech: Dakota Johnson about himself and others
About a career. Why aren't they filming my mom anymore? She is a wonderful actress! Why aren't they filming my grandma anymore? She is gorgeous ( American actress Tippi Hedren, known for her roles in the Hitchcock thrillers “The Birds” and “Marnie” ─ approx. ed.). This industry is fucking brutal. It doesn't matter how cool you are ─ if you're an actress, you'll always feel useless. This is absurd! Whenever I am not busy in projects, the thought that it is not a fact that I will act in film again cannot leave me. And every year this feeling will grow more and more...
About "50 shades of gray". I’m proud of the film, and I don’t want to distance myself from it - it’s part of my job. The more I work than more roles I receive, and the more facets in me you can see.
About appearance. In normal life, I don't always look great. It doesn't happen that you are always great, so most of all I love honest films that show reality as it is. Including my appearance.
About family. I always understood that my family was popular, but this never gave me the right to think that because of this I was allowed everything in the world.
About filming the sequel. Until work began on the second part of “Shades,” I had time to rest and... say goodbye to friends, relatives, free time and dates. I knew that when work started, there wouldn’t be time for all this... Of course, to shoot explicit scenes it was still difficult, because film set there is no place for intimacy ─ we are in sight all the time.
Despite the many piquant moments in the film “50 Shades of Gray,” Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan are not a couple at all. Moreover, the news was announced by Dakota Johnson herself: “after such piquant eroticism in the film, we will forever remain friends.”

“50 Shades of Gray” is one of the most high-profile premieres of this year. Even with an R rating, the film earned $570 million worldwide, recouping its budget (40 million) in its first weekend. Of course, the film would not have been so successful if it were not for the explosive chemistry between the main characters: Anastasia Steele and Christian Gray. Was this chemistry real? Was the passion on screen a reflection of the real-life relationship between Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson? Or is it all about acting?
Since the film was released, journalists from various publications have been closely following the acting duo Dornan-Johnson.
Director Sam Taylor-Johnson does not deny the romantic relationship between the main actors of his film.
In an interview with USA Today, Sam answered questions about the duo's relationship very ambiguously. Here are a few phrases from the interview:
“Everyone loves gossip. Much of what is being said is absolutely absurd. The truth is that they have fun and enjoyment together.”
“I don’t know what was expected of them. Probably many see them as another Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson"
“It was a movie. Job. They got along well with each other"
The ambiguity of the director’s statements further increased the press’s interest in the acting duo. Everyone was sure that these two were united by something more than just business relationship. All that was needed was some small confirmation. For example, photos from filming. And we got it:
The photo shows Dakota Johnson tightly hugging Jamie Dornan. And this is clearly not a still from the film. But what is the nature of these hugs?
The next shot is from a cocktail party. The pairing of Dakota and Jamie simply shines compared to the rest of the crowd. What is between them if not love?

Dornan is married and Johnson is in a relationship
But let's step back a little from guesswork and look at the facts. It's no secret that Jamie Dornan is happily married to English actress Amelia Warner. In addition, they have a little daughter. Dakota Johnson is dating the guitarist of the indie band The Drowners, Matthew Hitt (More details:). What is the probability that these two crossed the line?
Did Johnson break up with her boyfriend for Dornan?
But the fact of the matter is that last December this version became a little blurry. Dakota Johnson broke up with her boyfriend. This was evidenced numerous photos, taken before and after December. At first, the actress was often noticed accompanied by a guy, but starting in December, they were no longer seen together.
Fans of the film immediately picked up the news. But as soon as 50 Shades of Gray hit theaters, Johnson and Hitt rekindled their relationship. According to rumors, there wasn’t even a breakup. The couple only suspended their relationship due to both being busy at work: Hitt was on tour, and Johnson was waiting for the premiere of the film. However, just about a week ago a very interesting article appeared on the Yibada website. It said that after the couple's reunion, Dakota Johnson spends significantly more time alone or with her friends than with her boyfriend.
Dornan is happily married: true or false?
As for married couple Dornan-Warner, there is no evidence that the marriage is struggling. IN Lately Dornan is all his free time spends with his wife and little daughter. Numerous photos on the Internet confirm this.
“I’m even more in love with her now than at the beginning of our relationship,” the actor said in an interview with the Belfast Telefraph.
Nevertheless, it is worth mentioning the fact that Dornan's wife was not very happy with the erotic scenes in which her husband participated. For some time there was even talk that Dornan was considering giving up his role in the sequel. Actually, for this reason, the filming of the film was postponed.
And here is a clip of the filming process with the participation of Dakota and Jamie Dornan:
Can the Dornan-Warner marriage survive two entire films? We will get the answer to this question over time. In the meantime, in his interview with the Inquisitr, Jamie Dornan answered the question about romantic interest in Johnson directly: “No.” Although, in other interviews he spoke very well of his co-star:
“It’s easy to find a common language with her. She's very sweet"
“We had an immediate connection. If we didn't like each other, I wouldn't be cast in the role. But the producers decided that we would work together. And we really worked together. We have established friendly relations"
Dakota Johnson's remarks sound even sweeter:
"It was amazing. By then we had tried many candidates. He was so calm but funny at the same time. He easily picked up on all my jokes and that meant a lot to me."
Together or not?
Not yet. But is this possible in the future? Why not. It is obvious that there was some kind of chemistry between the actors. Whether they will be able to contain her for two whole films - time will tell.
