As if "Fifty Shades of Grey" fans needed another reason to flock to the theaters come opening day. While the public can hardly sit still as they await the film release of the erotic romance, Elliot Grey, played by Luke Grimes, has just been introduced via Twitter.
On Dec. 11, the official "Fifty Shades" posted a photo of Grimes, 30, in the film's official micro blogging network.

The "True Blood" actor's role in the film was announced October of 2013 via Variety.
There's no doubt that the actor, who stands at six feet, is perfect for the role. With his experience giving on-screen smolders, the muscular TV vampire is going to give Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) a run for his money.
Enstarz noted that when the new featured photo of Luke was released, there was no shortage of appreciative fans.
One Twitter user, Christine (@lil_caribou) posted her reaction: "@FiftyShades Christian's brother is hot!"
The team behind "Fifty Shades of Grey" is doing a great job of keeping everyone at the edge of their seats and making sure we don't forget about the upcoming flick.
It was only two weeks ago when new stills of the Grey family were released. Just Jared wrote about the photos that featured Rita Ora (Mia Grey, Christian's sister), Andrew Airlie (Carrick Grey. Christian's father) and Marcia Gay Harden (Dr. Grace Trevelyan Grey, Christian's mother).
These photos marked the first release of Christian Grey's adoptive family.
Then, last week, fans were shown photos of other cast members, namely Victor Rasuk who plays Ana Steel's best friend Jose Rodriguez. Additionally, another male character featured was Max Martini, Mr. Grey's bodyguard, brought to life by Jason Taylor.
"Fifty Shades of Grey" stars Jamie Dornan as Christian and Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele. The story follows the romance that develops between the billionaire and the college student who embark on a journey that explores the erotic practice of S&M.
Mark your calendars, ladies and gentlemen, "Fifty Shades of Grey" drops in two months. Expect crowded theaters on Valentine's, February 14, the release date of the flick.
