‘Fifty Shades Darker’ cast safe after Nice attack

Paris, July 15 (IANS) The cast and crew of upcoming erotic romantic drama film "Fifty Shades Darker" is safe after the Bastille Day attack in the French city of Nice that killed at least 84 people and injured over 150.

The film, starring Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan, had been under production in the French Riviera for the past few weeks, reports variety.com.

It’s unknown if production will be suspended this weekend. However, sources say the makers shot scenes on Thursday in the region but wrapped production before the attack happened in the night.

Earlier on Thursday, producer Dana Brunetti posted a photograph on Instagram with Dornan and producer Michael De Luca in the nearby city of Monte Carlo.

“Back safe in my hotel room. Thanks for everyone’s concern and messages,” Brunetti tweeted after the carnage.

“Fifty Shades Darker” actress Eloise Mumford later posted an image of the French flag with a broken heart icon.

The film is a sequel of 2015 film “Fifty Shades of Grey”.
