As Dakota Johnson returns to the big screen, Screen Rant‘s own Pitch Meeting series is looking back at its Fifty Shades of Grey episode. The 2015 movie served as an adaptation of E.L. James’ novel of the same name exploring the relationship between the titular sadist CEO and journalist Anastasia Steele, played by Johnson. Though critically panned, the movie was a box office smash, grossing nearly $570 million against its $40 million production budget and launching a trilogy based on James’ subsequent novels.
