Meanwhile, Ana begins a new job as an assistant to Jack Hyde, an editor at Seattle Independent Publishing ( SIP ) whose previous three assistants all quit within the last 18 months. Ana unexpectedly runs into Christian at the opening of her friend Jose Rodriguez 's photography exhibit where Christian bought all the portrays of Ana which Jose has exhibited. He says he wants Ana back and agrees to her no rules, no punishments, and no more secrets terms. As Jack and Ana are going for an after - work drink, Ana is approached on the street by a young woman resembling her. Christian arrives at the bar and acts coolly towards Jack, then quickly departs with Ana. He warns Ana about Jack 's reputation, though she dismisses this. Ana is annoyed that Christian is considering buying Seattle Independent Publishing ( SIP ). Jack tells Ana she is expected to accompany him on a New York book expo trip, but after speaking with Christian, she agrees not to attend. Shortly after, Ana again notices the same woman observing her and Christian from a distance. Christian deflects Ana 's inquiry about the woman 's identity, but later admits she is Leila Williams, a former submissive. After their contract ended, Leila wanted more, but Christian ended the relationship. Leila married a man who later died, causing Leila to have a mental breakdown. She has been stalking Ana and Christian. Prior to the Grey Family 's annual charity ball, Christian takes Ana to Esclava, a beauty salon owned by Elena Lincoln. Elena is Christian 's former dominant who introduced him to the BDSM lifestyle. Ana is furious that Christian took her there and to discover that Elena and Christian are business partners. At the ball, Christian 's sister mentions that her brother was expelled from four different schools for brawling. Christian tells Ana that his mother committed suicide ; he was alone with her body for three days before being taken to the hospital where Grace Trevelyan Grey worked ; she cared for and later adopted the young boy. At the ball, Ana rebuffs Elena 's demand that she leave Christian and warns Elena not to meddle in their relationship. Arriving home, she and Christian discover Leila has vandalized Ana 's car. Christian later tells Ana that his birth mother was a crack - addicted prostitute. When Ana tells Jack she wo n't be attending the expo with him, he attempts to sexually assault her while they are alone at work, but she escapes. Christian exerts his influence to have Jack fired, and Ana is promoted to acting editor in Jack 's place. Christian asks Ana to move in with him and she agrees. At Ana 's apartment, Leila threatens her with a gun. Christian and his driver / bodyguard, Jason Taylor, enter and Christian controls Leila by becoming her dominant. Ana, seeing Christian 's need to be dominant, walks out, returning hours later. Christian is furious but she says she needs time to consider their relationship. Not wanting to lose Ana, Christian submissively drops to his knees and confesses that he is not a dominant, but a sadist who enjoyed hurting women who looked like his birth mother. He insists he wants to change. During the night, Ana awakens Christian while he is having a nightmare. He proposes but she needs time before accepting. Christian leaves on a business trip, piloting his own helicopter. An engine failure occurs over St. Helens volcano which forces him to ditch the craft in a heavily forested area, prompting a massive search and rescue effort. Ana and Christian 's family gather to wait for news. When Christian suddenly arrives home safely, Ana, realizing she loves him, accepts his marriage proposal by giving a gift on his birthday a key chain on which `` Yes '' was written. At Christian 's birthday party, Elena accuses Ana of being a gold digger. Ana orders her to stop interfering in their lives. Christian overhears and dismissively tells Elena that she taught him, `` how to fuck and not how to love. '' Grace intervenes and, furious that Elena preyed on her teen - aged son, demands she leave for good ; Christian also cuts all ties with Elena. Later that evening, Christian proposes to Ana, this time with a ring, and she accepts. As fireworks erupt in the sky, Jack Hyde watches the festivities from afar and burns Christian 's face through the Grey family picture with the cigarette, silently swearing revenge against Christian and Ana.

When the first film premiered at a special fan screening in New York City on February 6, director Sam Taylor - Johnson announced that the book sequels Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed would also be adapted, with the first to be released in 2016.

On August 20, 2015, it was revealed by Deadline that James Foley was the front - runner to direct the sequel and third film Fifty Shades Freed, while the studio was also eyeing other directors, including Rebecca Thomas, Mark Pellington, and Tanya Wexler, and talks with Foley had not yet begun.

James. Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan were confirmed to return for the sequels.

Reception Box office Fifty Shades Darker grossed $115.4 million in the United States and Canada and $266.5 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $381 million, against a production budget of $55 million. In the United States and Canada, Fifty Shades Darker opened alongside two other sequels, The Lego Batman Movie and John Wick : Chapter 2, and was projected to gross $32 -- 40 million in its opening weekend. It earned $5.72 million from Thursday night previews at 3,120 theaters, down from the $8.6 million grossed by its predecessor two years prior, but still the sixth - best Thursday preview gross for an R - rated film. The film made $21.5 million on Friday, down 30 % from the first film 's $30 million opening day, but topped the box office that day. It went on to debut to $46.8 million, down 45 % from the first film 's $85.1 million, and finished second at the box office behind The Lego Batman Movie ( $55.6 million ). The film grossed $11 million on Valentine 's Day, marking the second - highest amount for when the holiday fell on a weekday, behind The Vow ( $11.6 million in 2012 ), and bringing its five - day gross to $61.5 million. In its second weekend, the film grossed $22 million, again finishing second at the box office behind The Lego Batman Movie. This marked a 55 % drop from its first weekend gross, and was almost exactly the amount the first film grossed in its second weekend ( $22.3 million ), only that marked a drop of 73.9 % from its respective debut. In its third weekend, it grossed $7.7 million, dropping to 5th at the box office. Outside North America, the film was simultaneously released in 57 countries, and was expected to gross $115 -- 155 million over its first three days. It ended up grossing $97.8 million in its opening weekend, the fourth largest R - rated international opening of all - time. Its top grossing locations included Germany ( $11 million ), the United Kingdom ( $9.7 million ), France ( $8.7 million ), Brazil ( $7.5 million ), Italy ( $6.8 million ), and Russia ( $6.7 million ). Critical response Much like its predecessor, Fifty Shades Darker received criticism for its screenplay, narrative and Dornan 's performance. On review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 10 % based on 170 reviews, with an average rating of 3.3 / 10. The site 's critical consensus reads, `` Lacking enough chemistry heat or narrative friction to satisfy, the limp Fifty Shades Darker wants to be kinky but only serves as its own form of punishment. '' On Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating to reviews, the film has a score of 33 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating `` generally unfavorable reviews ''. Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of `` B + '' on an A+ to F scale, an improvement over the `` C + '' earned by its predecessor. Richard Roeper gave the film two out of four stars, saying : `` This is one good - looking, occasionally titillating, mostly soapy and dull snooze-fest. '' Vince Mancini of Uproxx acknowledged the film 's flaws, but said watching the film was enjoyable, noting, `` Narrative sloppiness aside, as an outsider, sitting through Fifty Shades Darker was a reasonably diverting experience, odd, dumb fun made even more fun by an audience that whooped and shouted at the screen during sex scenes. I did n't really get it, but I enjoyed the feeling of them having fun, though at two hours plus, it 's a bit of a slog. '' Manohla Dargis writing for The New York Times expressed similar ambiguous opinions regarding the content of the film, stating : I was still rooting for Ms. Johnson in Fifty Shades Darker, even if it proved tough going. Once again, the story involves the on - and - off, tie - her - up, tie - her - down romance between Anastasia Steele ( Ms. Johnson ) and her billionaire boyfriend, Christian Grey ( Jamie Dornan ), a guy with sculptured muscles, expensive playthings and dreary issues. Stuff and kink happens : A gun is fired, a would - be rapist is punished and Anastasia is bound hand and foot. Mostly, she advances and retreats ( repeat ), mewls and moans, and registers surprise each time Christian tries to dominate her outside the bedroom, evincing the kind of stalkerlike behavior that usually leads to restraining orders. Richard Brody of The New Yorker described the film as inferior to the first, and found fault in the change in directors, stating : Some of the greatest Hollywood melodramas ( such as Douglas Sirk 's Magnificent Obsession ) featured plotlines of an even more extravagant absurdity than that of Fifty Shades Darker. Their extreme artifice became a framework for extreme ideas and extreme emotions, even in an era of extreme public reticence about what goes on in the bedroom. The freedom of the current age of sexual explicitness invites realms of characterization -- and of intimate imagination -- that the first film in the Fifty Shades series hints at and the second one utterly ignores. Fifty Shades Darker 's indifference to its characters ' identities, conflicts, and desires is matched by its indifference to its own cinematic substance. The film 's bland impersonality is grotesque ; its element of pornography is n't in its depiction of sex but in its depiction of people, of relationships, of situations that, for all their unusualness, bear a strong psychological and societal resonance. There 's nothing wrong with Fifty Shades Darker that a good director could n't fix.
