10 Things You Need To Know About Fifty Shades Of Grey

5. Rita Ora Has A Cameo

Brit singer Rita Ora made her first movie appearance in 2013's Fast and Furious 6 as the flag-waver of a street race, but she's set to one-up that part by playing Christian Grey's adoptive younger sister Mia in Fifty Shades. Ora was reportedly so nervous on set that her lines had to be fed to her through an ear-piece, which isn't the most encouraging piece of news regarding her casting. Is this more a piece of publicity-hungry stunt-casting than actually picking the "actress" right for the role? Considering that Mia has a more expanded role in the sequels, including her being kidnapped and ransomed for $5 million in Fifty Shades Freed (yes, really), it's pretty crucial that an actress is picked for the part who will be at least trying to take it seriously (difficult though that might be) and is committed to it for future films. Otherwise, Fifty Shades will suffer the bane of any sequel: recasting.
