The names of Kristen Stewart and Lily Collins have been floated for the female lead, Anastasia Steele, in the movie adaptation of E.L. James' book series "Fifty Shades of Grey."
"Kristen would be great," Alison Genet of Twifans.com told MTV News. "After all, it was written with her in mind. Isn't the author always right? I think it's also time for her to do another edgy flick."
"Lily Collins is one who I don't think has been mentioned too much," Mags Vazquez from Latersbaby.net added. "I look at the innocent part, she can probably pull that off really well, and she has the features that would go well."
In the book, Anastasia is the virginal love interest of Christian Grey (a part for which the names of Alexander Skarsgard and Ian Somerhalder have been floated), a sado-masochistic young business magnate.
