Emma Watson as Ana for Fifty Shades of Grey Movie?

'Fifty Shades of Grey' movie: Emma Watson considered to be cast as Ana Steele?

From brilliant witch beauty of “Harry Potter” fame to potential sexy female lead in the bedroom, actress Emma Watson has been recently called a “frontrunner” in the casting rumors as Anastasia Steele in the upcoming “Fifty Shades of Grey” movie.

In recent “Fifty Shades of Grey” film news, the “International Business Times” revealed this week that the Hermione Granger actress may be about to exchange her wand for a pair of handcuffs. According to reports from “Entertainmentwise” this Friday, Emma Watson has been considered a top casting choice to play the lucky lover Anastasia Steele in “Fifty Shades” as a fan favorite of the producers themselves.

“Fifty Shades of Grey” movie: Emma Watson cast as Anastasia Steele?

When it was confirmed in recent weeks that “The Social Network” producers Dana Brunetti and Mike DeLuca were going to be at the helm of the “Fifty Shades” film (an adaptation from the bestselling erotic novel by author EL James), fan speculation as to who would be cast as handsome billionaire Christian Grey and blue-eyed Anastasia Steele became a very hot topic, in more ways than one.

Interestingly enough, “The International Business Times” reported this week that Emma Watson (the brains-into-beauty Hermione Granger that may be recognized from the “Harry Potter” series) is a possible favorite of these two producers.

At this point, the release has not revealed why the actress is being considered for the role (or if she has shown any interest in being cast as Anastasia Steele), so the allegations are still unfounded.

However, Watson has certainly proved her skill as an actress from the “Harry Potter” movies, so the producers have said she could be a likely fit. In addition to her good looks, Watson portrays that sense of innocence Ana would need, though no amount of magic might prepare her for BDSM and graphic sex scenes with Christian Grey that would be required in the down and dirty film.

Do you think Emma Watson could play the role of Anastasia Steele? While Christian Grey is often the most hotly contested character, who do you feel should be cast as the innocent college grad turned on to the Red Room of Pain?
