Fifty Shades' Jamie Dornan Watches Sex And The City Before Steamy Scenes

Fifty Shades of Grey star Jamie Dornan has revealed he watches Sex and the City to get him in the mood for steamy love scenes.
The former underwear model, who will soon star as leading man Christian Grey in the upcoming “bonkbuster”, got to practice his technique on the set of period drama New Worlds, the last project he worked on before flying to Canada to film Fifty Shades.

In British series New Worlds, which features a number of saucy scenes, Jamie plays a seventeenth century renegade alongside Game of Thrones actor Joe Dempsie.

Speaking to The Sun, Jamie revealed how he prepared for the on-screen romance in the Channel 4 drama, which airs next week: “Joe and I watched all the Sex And The City box sets - twice. That helped,” he quipped.

He added of his experience on the gory series: “We had a ball - it was a good craic.”

“Sometimes you don’t luck out with the cast, you end up with people who aren’t really on your wavelength and who don’t approach the game the same way but we got genuinely lucky on this.”

“Obviously we’re getting the work done but you’re allowed to have fun at work - I’d stop if I wasn’t allowed to have fun.”
