Ian Somerhalder may be out of the running to play Christian Grey (check out his reaction here) but fan-favorite Henry Cavill is still a strong top contender. The "Man of Steel" actor has been at the top of several lists to star in the movie as the kinky, BDSM obsessed billionaire.

Recently fans were shocked to find Somerhalder wasn't going to be considered for the part when US Weekly broke the news that a source revealed that E.L. James was reportedly telling people at a party during San Diego Comic-con that the "Vampire Diaries" star wouldn't be in the movie. The same source also revealed that the role was offered to Garrett Hedlund but he turned it down due to scheduling conflicts.

Since then fans have not received any more news but casting rumors have definitely kicked up a notch. The 30-year-old British actor is not a part of two new fan-made trailers, one of them starring fan-favorite Alexis Bledel as Anastasia Steele.

The 6-minute video also includes Blake Lively as Katherine Kavanagh, Nina Dobrev as Mia Grey, Chace Crawford as Ethan Kavanagh, Steven Strait as Jose Rodriguez, Kim Catrall as Elena Lincoln and many other actors and actresses for the other role.

Cavill recently spoke about playing Grey in the movie during a radio interview saying that he was interested in the role.

"As an actor I don't think it should stop me from doing roles which may be great stories," he said. "I'm very much a storyteller, I enjoy telling stories and if there is a wonderful story to tell than I don't think having played the role of Superman will necessarily stop me from telling that story. The chances are it will very much be a different vehicle than what Superman is, so it won't damage any of that character... because they'll see two very different things on screen."
