'Fifty Shades Darker’ Release Date, Cast, Plot & Rumors: What's Really Causing the Delay?

Fans of "Fifty Shades of Grey" are already highly anticipating for the next movie, but the production is apparently being delayed.

In a report by Kpopstarz, although "Fifty Shades Darker" is underway, it looks like Jamie Dornan and wife Amelia Warner are causing some delay in the film's production. The actor, who is playing the character of Christian Grey, is allegedly demanding time off because he wants to spend it with his child and wife who is pregnant with their second baby. Dornan was just seen last month together with his wife and daughter Dulcie.

"Dornan is having another child with his wife, Amelia Warner, and wants to have a break as his family prepares for their new addition. In light of this news, Dornan has request some time off in order to spend a little more time with his wife and child," stated a source from a report by Inquistr.

Apart from their second child, the couple is also reportedly busy with their new home as they prepare to welcome an additional to their growing family. They said to have bought a mansion in Cotswolds, England.

According to Franchise Herald, the house is hidden and secluded in a remote village. Their five-bedroom mansion is reportedly worth $2.6 million.

Although Dornan's schedule is one thing to deal with, producer Dana Brunetti also revealed that they are nowhere near casting. She also admitted that they don't have a casting director yet. "Fifty Shades Darker" targets a release date in 2017 but with the growing problems the production is dealing with, it's not sure whether the team will be able to wrap the film on time.

"Fifty Shades Darker" will be directed by James Foley who is known for Netflix's drama "House of Cards." Many are intrigued about the uniqueness he will be able to offer for the sultry movie.

There is a report that claimed that "Fifty Shades of Grey" was able to earn $500 million worldwide. Dornan and Johnson, who are the lead stars in the film, allegedly received an additional $250,000 in bonus. They are also reportedly asking for $20 million raise for the next film. The two apparently know that they are indispensable to the producers and the film.

"The word is that they're asking for at least $20 million each, plus a percentage of the backend, which could be substantial if the next film is as big as the first," a source said.
