If you're a dyed-in-the-angora-yarn fan of British author E. L. James's 2011 erotic novel, you'll be reaching for a fan to calm your blushing visage in anticipation of the new** Fifty Shades Of Grey** trailer, out in full on Thursday. In the meantime, here's a teaser for that teaser, which lasts just 16 seconds - insert first-base sex joke here - and will probably leave you hankering for a spankering. Or, alternatively, not.
In case you are not in the know about will no doubt be Oxfam's most awkward donation for the next two decades, **Fifty Shades Of Grey **sees Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey, the handsome 28 year-old billionaire who can think of nothing better to do with his life than to pursue 21 year-old college graduate Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson).
But the course of true love never did run smooth, and it's particularly choppy when the guy's into S&M and likes his girlfriends to sign contracts promising submissive behaviour, while the girl is a virgin who's almost as terrified by him as she is attracted to him. Well, almost. He is described as an uber-babe and Dornan does appear to be living up to that description. Not that we can tell from this teaser, which doesn't show anyone's face. Clearly this is a film more concerned with other body parts.
Sam Taylor-Johnson (Nowhere Boy) directs, with Jennifer Ehle, Rita Ora, Max Martini, Marcia Gay Harden, Callum Keith Rennie and Luke Grimes also in the cast. With a script written by Saving Mr. Spanks Banks' Kelly Marcel, Fifty Shades Of Grey will arrive in cinemas on February 13, 2015, just in time for the most romantic day of the year.
