?The filmmakers of Fifty Shades of Grey and Charlie Hunnam have agreed to find another male lead given Hunnam?s immersive TV schedule which is not allowing him time to adequately prepare for the role of Christian Grey," Universal Pictures said in a statement. 

 

The Sons of Anarchy actor was set to star as Christian Grey alongside Dakota Johnson in the adaptation of EL James bestselling book. The release date had been set for Aug. 1, 2014, in North America.

 

Sam Taylor-Johnson (Nowhere Boy) is directing the film. Production on Fifty Shades was set to start in Vancouver in November. 

 

"As soon as we got in the room and started reading with Dakota, I knew that I definitely wanted to do it, because there was a tangible chemistry between us," Hunnam had told The Hollywood Reporter and several other reporters at the season six premiere of Sons of Anarchy in September.
