Anastasia and Christian may have broken up at the end of Fifty Shades of Grey, but Fifty Shades Darker will see the couple reunited and this time it’s all on Anastasia’s terms.
The follow up film sees a few familiar faces returning to the big screen but there’s also a host of new faces in the mix as Kim Basinger joined the film to play the role of Elena Lincoln.
