Jamie Dornan's Insight on Creating a Unique Prop for a Sensual Scene in Fifty Shades of Grey

Jamie Dornan Shares His Insight into the Intricate Process of Crafting a Distinctive Prop for a Pivotal Sensual Scene in Fifty Shades of Grey

If you're a fan of the Fifty Shades of Grey film series, you're likely aware of its provocative scenes and inventive props. Jamie Dornan, the lead actor, shared a behind-the-scenes story about a specially crafted prop for a scene.

Fifty Shades of Grey, known for pushing boundaries in the erotica genre, generated significant anticipation as it transitioned from a successful book series to a blockbuster film. Jamie Dornan, who played a key role in the franchise, revealed in an interview how the team brought to life a specific prop—a sex toy—straight from the imaginative mind of writer E.L. James.

In the 2015 film, directed by Danny Elfman, the plot follows the life of Christian Grey, a business tycoon engaged in a sexual relationship with a college graduate, portrayed by Dakota Johnson. The movie featured daring scenes, and in a 2017 interview with PEOPLE magazine, Dornan discussed a particular sex toy used in the second installment, known as the 'spreader bar.' This item, solely conceived from E.L. James' imagination, required extra effort from the crew to manufacture.

Dornan revealed, "The spreader bar, they made that. They were actually really struggling to get their hands on that." Despite encountering a few malfunctions during filming, he shared, "It didn’t quite achieve what we wanted it to achieve, but when it mattered it worked, so it was all good."

Director James Foley commented on a scene involving the prop, emphasizing the playful aspect and Dakota Johnson's genuine laughter during filming. The unconventional creation added a touch of fun to the movie, aligning with the director's vision of a lighthearted atmosphere.
