"Fifty Shades Darker" star Bella Heathcote recently arrived in Vancouver for the filming of the upcoming sequel.

According to the Daily Mail, the 28-year-old Australian actress was spotted wearing an orange blouse underneath a grey knit sweater on Wednesday.

She was also pushing a trolley with her luggage outside of the airport's arrival gate.

Meanwhile, Heathcote has been confirmed to play the role of Leila Williams in the "Fifty Shades of Grey" sequel.

In the trilogy written by E.L. James, Leila was described as a beautiful woman who once captured Christian Grey's (Jamie Dornan) interest.

Before they went on their separate ways, Leila also happened to be Christian's submissive.

Now, that role has been given to his girlfriend Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson).

Leila's return will cause problems to Christian and Anastasia's relationship.

In other news, Heathcote will also be joined by several other new cast members including Kim Basinger who will play the role of Mrs. Robinson.

Mrs. Robinson or Elena Lincoln is the much older woman who introduced Christian into the world of BDSM when he was just a teenager.

At the age of 15, Christian also lost his virginity to the female character.

In present time, Mrs. Robinson and Anastasia will have an awkward encounter.

As a result, the former will question Christian's decision to give up his old self for the latter.

Additionally, Eric Johnson has been cast to play the role of Jack Hyde in the movie, according to Entertainment Weekly.

Jack happens to be Christian's biggest nemesis both personal and professional-wise.

The two male characters grew up at an orphanage, and Christian was first to be adopted by his parents. As a result, Jack has grown jealous of him.

At one point, Anastasia will work at Jack's company, and the latter will advance on her resulting to Christian getting angry at Jack.

"Fifty Shades of Grey" cast members Rita Ora, Luke Grimes and Eloise Mumford are expected to return to the sequel.

Ora plays the role of Christian's sister Mia, Grimes plays the role of Christian's brother, and Mumford plays the role of Anastasia's roommate Katherine.

"Fifty Shades Darker" is slated to hit theaters in the United States on Feb. 10, 2017.
