ATLANTA — Even celebrities’ faces were flushed and aglow with wonderment after they exited the packed theater in Atlantic Station for the advanced screening of the highly-anticipated Universal film Fifty Shades of Grey.
As the screen went black after the famously sensual film ended, there was as much excitement and fun arguments in the theater seats — and in the lobby area — about the film as there were in the movie itself.
The bestselling book Fifty Shades has become a global phenomenon and theatergoers, book fans and pop culture critics alike are awaiting to see if and how Universal adapts the scintillating book to the big screen. Since its release, the Fifty Shades trilogy has been translated into 51 languages worldwide and sold more than 100 million copies in e-book and print—making it one of the biggest and fastest-selling book series ever.
This film releases nationwide on Friday, February 13, 2015. The trailer can be viewed here: https://www.fiftyshadesmovie.com/
