            For all you Fifty Shades of Grey lovers out there, we have a brand new trailer for the sequel, Fifty Shades Darker for you. The second film in the Fifty Shades trilogy, based on the mega-popular book series by E.L. James is being helmed by a great director, James Foley (Glengarry Glen Ross, House of Cards)

            This movie and trailer looks to be much of the same thing from the first film, as we see Anastasia Steele getting involved once again with Christian Gray, an S&M-loving ex. Added to the mix though is a shadowy figure from Grey’s past and a new man involved in Steele’s life. Personally, I think this trailer is atrocious. The dialogue and acting is hard to get through, in particular. It makes me hard to believe that anyone other than the main audience being excited to see this movie.

            Check out the trailer below for Fifty Shades Darker. The movie stars Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan, Eric Johnson, Jennifer Ehle, Rita Ora, Bella Heathcote, Kim Basinger and Marcia Gay Harden. The sequel will open in theaters on February 10^th, 2017.
