E L James officially announced Jamie Dornan as the new Christian Grey on Thursday, one day after reports surfaced saying he scored the lead role in the highly-anticipated film adaptation.
“Stow your twitchy palms ladies… our man is here. Welcome to #TeamFifty @JamieDornan1 x,” wrote the author.
Dornan (pictured right with his wife earlier this year) is taking over for Charlie Hunnam, who left the project earlier this month.
The Irish actor will star alongside Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele.
Production is expected to begin next month.
