Aaron Taylor-Johnson has been tipped to take over the role of Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey.
Charlie Hunnam has originally landed the role in the highly anticipated film, however, he walked away from the project over the weekend.
Sam Taylor-Johnson is in the director's chair for the film and it looks like she may be reuniting with her husband for another film project: the pair met while making Nowhere Boy.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Aaron was one of the original choices but the concern was that Sam would have difficulty directing her own husband and that Aaron would feel uncomfortable.
"This is Sam's biggest project to date and having no lead secured yet is unsettling.
"Having her husband by her side makes sense, even if it could be awkward at times. Aaron is in pre-production for the movie 'The Avengers: Age Of Ultron', but they can easily work around the scheduling.
"He's beefed up his body too. The whole project has been pushed back."
It has also been suggested that actors such as Alexander Skarsgard and Jamie Dornan are also being considered for the central role.
2014 is already set to be a big year for the Aaron Taylor-Johnson as he has landed the role of Quicksilver in The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Blockbuster Gozilla is also set to hit the big screen.
Fifty Shades of Grey is scheduled to be released 1st August 2014.
