New 'Fifty Shades Darker' photos reveal a lot

We're less than two months away from February when everyone flocks to theaters to see Fifty Shades of Grey , and we're already talking about doing it again. I guess that makes sense when you consider that the original made $400 million in two weeks, which is more than the seven Best Picture nominees combined , just to really put that into context. a little. But apparently I only have about a year and eight months to plan my next movie trip, because Fifty Shades of Gray has a release date of February 10, 2017, and a screenwriter attached ——Niall Leonard, husband of the original author EL James. But while we don't yet know who will be directing, we do have another key piece of information when it comes to determining what to expect from the film: the first still.

The fact that a sequel to Fifty Shades Darker is already on the schedule is a bit disconcerting. The first movie took so long to get from the book version to the movie version that I figured I'd have more time to come up with an excuse as to why I didn't want to watch soft porn in the dark, A Silent Room with Strangers.

You might think that you can't tell much from a still photo, but you'd be wrong, because it actually provides a whole bunch of clues about what the movie is about. Come with me to decode them. This is static:

Here's what I learned from it:

Still no chemistry with Anastasia

Otherwise, she wouldn't be in the photo, right?

He finally chose gray

And it looks black.

He's not a vampire anymore

Because, my friends, that’s the reflection in the mirror. (He was a vampire in the first film, right? And then he fell in love with the sullen mortal girl?)

Christian forgot how to button a button

Refusing to believe there was any other explanation for the lack of buttons on his shirt. Maybe this indicates a brain injury? ? ?

He lost his cell phone

Can't think of any other reason for him to wear a watch.
