12. Jensen Ackles
When the first round of casting rumours appeared a couple of years ago in the wake of the film's announcement, there was a tidal wave of support for Supernatural star. You can probably expect the same thing to happen this time around too. Pros He's good-looking, and most importantly for the film-makers, he will come with an established fan-base that will probably translate across to Fifty Shades quite easily. There's probably already some cross-over if truth be told. And on purely aesthetic terms, he actually does resemble the composite image that "experts" drew up from the Fifty Shades books. Cons Could he shift from a heroic role to one marked by darkness and deep currents? There might be too many questions over his acting ability to really make him a strong option, if that's the way Universal choose to go.
