Sorry Matt Bomer fans, but 31-year-old Jamie Dornan is the new frontrunner for the lead role in the movie version of '50 Shades of Grey.'

If his face looks a little familiar, that's because he's currently starring on ABC's "Once Upon a Time." Jamie was among the actors shortlisted for the part after Charlie Hunnam dropped out of the project.

Dornan reportedly read for the part late last week, but he's also facing off against Tony nominee and "As the World Turns" star Billy Magnussen. Both will read opposite Dakota Johnson, who is set to play female lead Anastasia Steele.


Based on this image of the former CK model, there's no denying that Dornan should play the lead. The man is clearly equipped to handle such an intense movie.
