Fifty Shades Freed trailer: Anastasia trades in her sex toys for a wedding dress

The first trailer of Fifty Shades Freed, the final movie in the blockbuster erotic thriller series, Fifty Shades of Grey, was released online on Monday.

The first teaser trailer for Fifty Shades Freed, the third and final instalment in the Fifty Shades series, was released online with relatively low fanfare on Monday.

Fifty Shades Freed is scheduled for a February 9, 2018 release.

Shot back to back with Fifty Shades Darker, ...Freed is scheduled to open in the same Valentine’s Day window that hosted the first two movies. The teaser ends with the promise of a full trailer, due out in November.

The one-minute video does pack in quite a bit, though. We see brief glimpses of Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey’s much awaited wedding. There are shots of an expensive honeymoon - it’s all very similar to the final two Twilight movies. Remember author EL James first wrote the Fifty Shades series as Twilight fan fiction.

But Anastasia and Christian’s wedding bliss is soon interrupted by an uninvited guest. The couple is visited by ghosts of the past. Mayhem ensues.

Fifty Shades Freed comes exactly a year after the second film, which saw a notable decline at the box office. The first film made $571 million (Rs 3600 crore) worldwide in 2015. The sequel could only manage $378 million (Rs 2400 crore).

Fifty Shades Freed is directed by James Foley and stars Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan.
