3. Ian Somerhalder
If the legions of Fifty Shades readers had any weigh-in on the casting process, The Vampire Diaries star Ian Somerhalder was a shoo-in for the coveted part. A fan-created mashup trailer featuring Somerhalder and Alexis Bledel in the lead roles received over a million views and many considered him to be a frontrunner. However, he was never really in serious consideration by anyone but the fans. At one point he told Ryan Seacrest that being cast “would be an incredible thing.” However, his 10 month TV shooting schedule wouldn’t have permitted it, and he’s always been coy about confirming if he was ever truly interested or not.
