The release date of the highly anticipated sequel "Fifty Shades Darker" has been moved to another date because of rumors that main actor Jamie Dornan is having scheduling difficulties because of his wife, Amelia Warner.

The original release date for the sequel based on the book by EL James was supposed to be on February 2016, but because of Dornan's schedule, "Fifty Shades Darker" will be released on Feb. 10, 2017 in the US. The third movie, "Fifty Shades Freed." is scheduled to be released on 2018, according to Movie News Guide.

The reason why the sequel has been moved at a later year has been wildly speculated by fans. Some rumors reported by Yibada say that Dorner, who plays Christian Grey in the movie, is falling in love with Dakota Johnson, his costar who plays Anastasia Steele. The outlet added that the fans say that there is undeniable chemistry between the two as seen in the intimate scenes they have together in the film.

However, Dornan slammed the rumors as he told Belfast Telegraph that he is madly in love with his wife, Warner.

"I was smitten from the start, I really was. I'm more in love with her today than I was at the start, so no," Dornan told the outlet when asked if his wife had traits that annoyed him.

Furthermore, the report revealed that Warner has been very supportive of her husband's career as the couple moved to Canada after their daughter Dulcie was born so they could be nearer to where Dornan was filming for "Fifty Shades of Grey."

Dornan is currently filming "Anthropoid," a true-to-life story based on two Czechoslovak soldiers on a mission to assassinate SS head Reinhard Heydrich in 1941. According to Variety, Dornan plays Jan Kubis and joined by Cilian Murphy, who plays the other assassin named Josef Gabcik. The entire assassination was named Operation Anthropoid.

The actor said he finds his character, Kubis, to be relatable and that is his primary drive for portraying the role.

"You always need a drive in everything you do and a reason to tell the story. As an actor, you've got to have something that drives you every day on the set," Dornan told Variety. "Could there be any stronger drive needed than the opportunity to assassinate someone so horrific? There's nobody in the world now who can't see that Heydrich was evil... So to have that, to bring that to work every day, I'm so excited about the idea of having that as my drive."

This month, Dornan was spotted by Daily Mail as he was shooting scenes for the movie in Prague, Czech Republic. He was dressed in a suit and riding a bicycle and appears to be in conflict with a Nazi shooter. The movie Anthropoid will be released in 2016, but no specific schedule has been announced so far.
