Universal Pictures has released the first teaser of Fifty Shades Freed, the third and final installment of the franchise based on the novels by British author EL James. The one-minute video features Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) reciting his wedding vows to Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) before the couple jets off for their honeymoon. It also hints at the reappearance of Anastasia’s vengeful former boss, Jack Hyde.
The complete trailer is expected to be released in November. Directed by James Foley and distributed by Universal Pictures, the film is scheduled for a Valentine’s Day 2018 release.
The movie series, which began with Fifty Shades of Grey in 2015, chronicles a sadomasochistic relationship between college graduate Anastasia Steele and wealthy businessman Christian Grey. While the first film grossed $571 million worldwide, the second, Fifty Shades Darker, crossed $378.8 million. The series is set to become a billion-dollar franchise with the release of Fifty Shades Freed.
