Charlie Hunnam reportedly pulled out of the film adaption of the best selling erotic novel 'Fifty Shades of Grey' because he could not handle the attention that came along with his casting.

A source told E! News that the 'Sons of Anarchy' star's exit from the film wasn't a surprise because what he was taking on with the coveted role was not what he wanted in his future career.

The spy explained that the attention and pressure that came with the role was intense and more than anything Hunnam hates attention.

Being in the flick would force the handsome hunk to do lots of media and that's really not his thing, the source said.

 

The insider asserted that Hunnam doesn't want to be massively famous and he hates conforming and being told what to do.

The source added that the fact that Hunnam even accepted the part was shocking.
