He's the man who looks AMAZING in his pants, so why did David Gandy turn down the chance to star in Fifty Shades of Grey?!

The Essex model has revealed that he said no to an offer of playing Christian Grey in the film, as he believes it 'didn't feel right' for him.

"Critics and literary experts aren’t fans but I respect it for what it is. But was it right for me? No. It just didn’t feel right, in any way. And in my gut, it felt right to say no," he told Square Mile magazine. 

“I was offered Fifty Shades Of Grey, 300:2, Hercules, which a lot of people probably would have taken as actors but I’m in the fortunate position where I like what I’m doing. I don’t feel the need to act," he said. 


While we're sad that we won't be seeing Gandy in his tighty whities on the big screen anytime soon, there is a brand new clip from the film out to wet your appetite.

Check out Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) turn the tables on Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) in the infamous interview scene right here.
