Was cast as Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey (2015) but three weeks before the start of the shooting he chose to drop out the film due personal reasons and his busy schedule with Sons of Anarchy (2008).
When some films do not pay as well and you have a mortgage to pay and
you are on an economy drive eating eggs and beans, and you are offered
a million dollar role and you turn it down, as it is not right. I want
to be doing this when I am 60 and getting the big paying roles then so
I have to pick the parts that are right for the long term rather than
take the money now. [on being picky choosing roles]
