(PCM) Focus Features premiered the new official trailer for Sam Taylor-Johnson’s adaption of E.L. James’ bestselling novel, Fifty Shades of Grey, on Thursday.
The new trailer debuted during ABC’s Thursday night episode of Scandal, hot on the heels of the new grayscale poster featuring Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele coquettishly biting her lip.
Giving viewers a more rounded-out picture of the man behind Christian Grey’s cold business-like exterior, the new trailer gives us a glimpse of a scene where Christian reveals to Anastasia that she is changing him, only after she accuses him of trying to change her.
In less than 48 hours, Fifty Shades of Grey‘s new trailer has already gained close to 6,000,000 views on Youtube. The official teaser trailer, released back in July, has over 15,000,000 views.
With these numbers, it looks pretty likely that Fifty Shades of Grey‘s target audience will be hitting theaters in droves this Valentine’s Day, dragging their significant others out to brave the cold to see the film adaption of the erotic romance novel that captivated a shockingly large number of people worldwide.
Gaining viral popularity after sparking controversy around its treatment of BDSM, its origins as an erotic Twilight fan-fiction, and its grammar/literary content, Fifty Shades of Grey has sold over 100 million copies worldwide.
