Dakota Johnson playing Anastasia Steele in "Fifty Shades Darker," recently dished on her character and the sex scenes involving Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan).
Talking to People, Johnson as well talked about her role in the next movie titled "How to Be Single." In the movie, Johnson will play the role of Alice, an independent woman who has just ended her relationship with a long-time boyfriend. According to Johnson, Alice and Anastasia are very different as opposed to the point of view held by some fans.
Johnson said, "Alice is a smart and sensitive woman, figuring out what it means to not rely on a relationship to make her happy."
On the contrary, "Fifty Shades Darker" character, Anastasia, is a young woman consumed by her feelings for a man. While Anastasia is smart, she will find it hard to be independent against Christian.
The actress also dished on what drew her to E.L. James trilogy. She said, "It's an exciting endeavor. It is rare these days to have the main character in a film about being wild and partying and dating be a woman."
Meanwhile, "Fifty Shades Darker" will introduce three new characters destined to make Anastasia and Christian's lives more difficult.
According to Cosmopolitan, Leila Williams, Christian's former submissive, is one of the characters featuring in the upcoming movie.
While it is believed that Christian never had feelings for Williams, the upcoming sequel will see her reappearing to cause some risk to Anastasia's life when she discovers that her role in Christian's world was replaced.
The other two characters speculated to feature include Jack Hyde and Mrs. Robinson.
"Fifty Shades Darker" is scheduled to premiere in the United States on Feb. 10, 2017. Here is a promo for the upcoming movie.
