"Stephen Amell has confirmed that he has been in talks about appearing in the upcoming Fifty Shades of Grey movie. The Arrow star explained that he has had a meeting about taking on the lead role of Christian Grey in the film, which will be based on the erotic novel by EL James.  Speaking in a video posted on his Facebook page, Amell said: &amp;quot;I get questions about Christian Grey all the time. That project is a long way off. I know this, because I had a meeting about it.&amp;quot; Amell then went on to tease his fans, saying: &amp;quot;A long way off. I mean, not that long, but not close. I wouldn&amp;#039;t call it long, but I wouldn&amp;#039;t call it close.&amp;quot; Speculation about who could play Christian Grey has been circulating ever since a movie adaptation was announced, with stars such as Henry Cavill, Ian Somerhalder and Jake Gyllenhaal among the rumoured candidates.
