Are Rob and Kristen doing a movie together?

They didn’t get racy enough for their intimate scene in Breaking Dawn, but they might get their chance if they sign on for the new erotic movie, Fifty Shades Of Grey.

Will they take the opportunity to star together in the movie? They should, if they want to trash the good couple image that they’ve garnered as a result of doing Twilight!

Rob has apparently been talking to producers about the movie adaptation.

Kristen said in a new interview, “It’s so funny – I heard about it yesterday. Rob and Wyck our producer, were talking about it! I’ve heard it’s quite sexy – very titillating.”

When asked if she has ever read the book, she said, “Hell yeah!”

“50 Shades of Grey” is written by British author, E.L. James (a pseudonym) and by all accounts is a steamy read. E.L. James, has scored a reported seven-figure publishing deal, a movie deal and has already been on all the big bestseller lists. And yes, she was interviewed by TIME magazine. Not bad for a woman whose first published work was posted on the Internet and starred characters known as Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. She has changed the names of her characters — now they’re Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey — and in 50 Shades of Grey and its sequels 50 Shades Darker and 50 Shades Freed they bear only passing resemblance to the Twilight couple.

The author will retain the right to approve the script for the movie and the choice of the two leads, college student Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey, a young billionaire. The prospect of a “Grey” movie had many studios competing for rights to the novel before Focus Features and Universal Pictures won out.

“Like so many readers all over the globe, we’ve fallen in love with ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’,” Universal Pictures chairman Adam Fogelson and Universal co-chairman Donna Langley said in a joint statement. “It’s a special story and working with Focus, we hope to bring audiences a film they can enjoy as much as they loved the book.”

Do you think that they should take the starring roles in the movie?
