"Fifty Shades Darker" bring back the erotic romance between Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) and Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) once again to the silver screen. While reports suggest that intimate scenes in the first movie, "Fifty Shades Of Grey" proved to be a little awkward between the two actors, Dornan said the intimate scenes this time was a lot easier to shoot.

"I was only cast five weeks before we started filming the first movie, and that's when I met Dakota [Johnson] for the first time" Jamie Dornan said to Carly Steel of Entertainment Tonight at the Los Angeles premier of the movie. Dornan further added that they have been working for three years and things are comfortable between them.

Coming to Dakota Johnson, the actress really had a hard time filming those extremely erotic sexual scenes in the movie, "Fifty Shades Darker". While the first movie from the erotic romance trilogy had few sexual scenes, the second movie had a lot of those steamy scenes.

Dakota Johnson, 27, confessed that she and Dornan had adopted a pre -game ritual before filming those under the sheet scenes. Johnson who stars as Anastasia Steele said that she took several shots of whiskey just minutes before the camera started rolling. "He does pushups and I just lay there and drink whiskey," she said as reported by New York Daily News.

Dakota Johnson told the media that filming those scenes wasn't easy for her, but she became comfortable as both she and Jamie Dornan became quite close to one another. Interestingly, Dornan, who plays the role of BDM obsessed Christian Grey, mentioned that he didn't know Johnson before the first movie started.

The first film, "Fifty Shades Of Grey" received massive criticism from fans who criticized both Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson for having of lack of chemistry. However, the movie did have success in the box office resulting in the sequel.
