It sounds like there have been some ups and downs. Dakota Johnson was not a stranger to Hollywood when she booked Fifty Shades of Grey. But nothing could have prepared her for the way her life would change after she played Anastasia Steele for the first time. The actress has had a few years away from the franchise and now she has able to reflect on exactly what the massive series meant for both her personal life and her career.
Fifty Shades of Grey was a hugely popular book series when Dakota Johnson became part of the film series cast. So it was inevitable that it would transform her from a relatively unknown actress to one of the most famous faces in the world. On an episode of The Hollywood Reporters Awards Chatter podcast she admitted that her life has changed a lot since the first Fifty Shades film was released in both good ways and bad ways I mean I did not have to deal with paparazzi before that. laughs Thats a pretty fucked up job. My life changed in all the ways that you would imagine it changed but I did not. I was just like Now I can meet with directors and writers that did not know who I was before or did not have the time. And that was so so special and the platform those movies have given me and the access to people has been really incredible.
Its hard to imagine how stressful it would be to deal with the media tracking your day to day life even before the first film came out there was a lot of attention on how she and co star Jamie Dornan got along. And now that the star is with Coldplays Chris Martin the attention has only increased. But just like Dornans own take on the Fifty Shades whirl wind she has a healthy perspective on the ways in which her life has changed for the better.
