Fans of Fifty Shades of Grey who are counting the days until the film adaptation hits theaters next year are not going to like this at all. We told you last week that Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson were back on location in Vancouver, Canada, for reshoots of some of the scenes between their characters, Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele. Sources connected to the film tried to play it off as nothing major and claimed they were just needing a bit more footage to round out the film. Unfortunately, now we're hearing a totally different story, with Dornan being called a "dish-rag."

According to the Daily Mail, Johnson and Dornan are lacking chemistry onscreen and it's mostly her fault:

"They were seen reshooting parts of Fifty Shades of Grey last week, with less than four months to go before the erotic flick gets its cinematic release. And now it seems that rather than merely perfecting a couple of scenes, producers had Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan back on set re-enacting their steamy encounters due to a concerning absence of heat between the duo. "Dakota isn't coming off sexy enough. Ana needs to be naive, not a dish-rag."

When the film's official trailer dropped last July, the two seemed to have loads of chemistry but we all know those can be deceptive. How many times have you gone to see a film only to realize that all of the good stuff was included in the trailer? Do you think there's a chance Fifty will turn into that type of film — where people walk away wondering why they paid for a full ticket?

Fifty Shades of Grey needs serious chemistry and heat to do well, and if the casting is off, then the next two books in the series will never make it to the big screen.

Do you believe there are serious chemistry problems, and if so, do you think they have beefed up those scenes during the reshoots? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below.
