Fans pretty much know who they want cast as Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele in the movie "Fifty Shades of Grey." Ian Somerhalder, Henry Cavill and Matt Bomer are top contenders for the male lead while Alexis Bledel, Emilia Clarke and Lucy Hale are the most talked about to play Steele.
There has also been talks about who should play Kate Kavanagh, Mrs. Robinson and Jose Rodriguez. With the announcement of a release date and scheduling supposedly set to begin in the fall, casting rumors are at an all-time high. HNGN has gone through some of the characters from the first book giving our opinions on who is generating the buzz and even throwing in a couple names of our own.
There hasn't been much talk about who should play Elliot Grey, the older brother of Christian, so we picked the seven hottest actors we could see playing Kate Kavanagh's love interest.
Here's what we know about Elliot so far: He's in his early 30s and is the older brother of lead character, Christian Grey. He is the first adoptive child of Carrick and Dr. Grace Trevelyan-Grey. He gets introduced in the book when he goes with Christian to a Portland bar to pick up a drunken Anastasia Steele. Steele is there with her best friend, Kavanagh who meets Elliot while Grey looks after Steele. Soon, the two become a couple.
He is described as tall, muscular and wide-shouldered. He is also incredibly attractive, enough to attract the feisty journalist, but not hot enough to overshadow Grey. He also has a completely different personality than Grey. Elliot is outgoing, funny and has no problem showing his affection for Kavanagh, which often times makes Steele a little jealous.
Whoever is picked to play Elliot needs to physically look the part and also needs to have that loveable, playful personality. Later on the books, it is revealed that Elliot used to have a promiscuous side so the actor also needs to be really hot. Check out our slideshow of the seven hottest actors to play Elliot Grey.
