’50 Shades of Grey’ Movie Trailer Might Not be Released Until September?

Filming for "Fifty Shades of Grey" wrapped back in February but there still has not been a trailer released. E.L. James and Universal Pictures have not even hinted to fans when a clip of the erotic movie could be expected but "Fifty Shades" fansite, Laters Baby, might have some information.

According to the site, Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) recently made some changes and is not allowing trailers to be shown more than five months before the movie is set to be released. The site couldn't locate the original announcement of the alleged change (and neither could we) but if the rules did change, then fans might not see a "Fifty Shades of Grey" trailer until September.

The film was given a release date of Feb. 13, 2015. As of now, this is still a rumor and we are definitely hoping that Universal won't wait until the fall before fans can get a glimpse at Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) and Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) in a trailer.

Back in March, Universal did show a five-minute clip of the film to an audience at CinemaCon but it didn't receive the best reviews. According to the Los Angeles Times, the clip focused more on the romance instead of the steamy, kinky sex.

"Based on the roughly five minutes of footage Universal unveiled, the movie seemed far more tame than the steamy, S&M-heavy book it's based on," the newspaper wrote. "Though Anastasia was shown blindfolded, as well as being pushed up against a wall by Christian, the teaser featured very little sex."

According to the LA Times, the clip started with Ana and Christian meeting at Grey Enterprises for the interview. Entertainment Weekly also weighed in on the clip and said that Charlie Tango and Clayton's Hardware Store also made an appearance.
