Dakota Johnson: Anastasia is boring

TEXAS: Dakota Johnson insists her ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ character is ‘’kind of boring’’. The 24-year-old actress is currently filming the big screen adaptation of E.L. James’ erotic novel and despite the raunchy subject matter, she thinks her character Anastasia Steele - who gets entangled in an S&M relationship with kinky businessman Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) is quite dull.
She said: ‘’A lot of getting into the character’s head, in Ana’s headspace before she meets Christian, so it’s a lot of reading, which I love. She’s an English major, so that’s kinda boring.’’
Dakota - the daughter of actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith - admits she had some ‘’fears’’ about working on the movie, but is enjoying the experience very much.  Speaking to the March edition of Vanity Fair magazine, she said: ‘’It’s been a very smooth and fun and creative experience. I think going into something like this, you kind of have fears of what it could be like and none of those fears are happening. We all get along really well and the crew’s amazing. We’re just all trying to make this project the best it can be.’’–ES
