From film and TV critic Jo Berry comes the unauthorized biography of model-turned-actor Jamie Dornan, starring as Christian Grey in the wildly popular Fifty Shades of Grey film!
Jamie Dornan is quickly becoming a megastar. The announcement of his lead role in the upcoming movie adaptation of Fifty Shades of Grey caused a media frenzy and he has been hitting the headlines ever since. After English actor Charlie Hunnam stepped away from the role, Dornan was catapulted into the international spotlight. Previously a model for Calvin Klein alongside Kate Moss, he has appeared in Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette, has dated Keira Knightley, was cast as the sheriff in the hit fantasy TV drama Once Upon A Time, and followed it up with an acclaimed leading performance in the TV thriller The Fall. With details compiled from in-depth research into both his personal and professional life, this insightful book will reveal fifty shades of Jamie Dornan — a no-holds-barred biography of the man who everyone wants to know intimately.
My Thoughts: I am not typically a huge fan of biography’s but this one was one I was looking forward to reading. I was curious as to who this relatively unknown person was that has taken the world by storm due to his casting in the much anticipated Fifty Shades of Grey film. I had seen pictures of Jamie Dornan on the internet in some of his modeling shots and he is a stunner! Getting a glimpse into his career that brought him into the big lights is what this book is about.
The author goes through Jamie’s life and career in depth so you get a clear picture of some of his past work. There are several shows I need to make a note to look up and watch. One being The Fall which he stars with Gillian Anderson on BBC2. It has won many awards and sounds intriguing!
You also learn a bit about his wife, some past relationships and some in depth info on other people he has starred with. And, of course, that all leads us up to his latest hot movie that was just released that you may have heard of, Fifty Shades of Grey.
The book is a pretty fast read with a cool timeline in the back that will give you a quick overview of who Jamie Dornan is and what he has been doing. For his fans, this is a perfect accompaniment to learn more about the seemingly unknown guy that has been cast is a majorly hot role of a lifetime. We will be seeing quite a bit of him in the future. Now you can backtrack a bit and get to know more about the man.
