Victor Rasuk to Play 'Jose' in 50 SHADES OF GREY Film

Deadline reports that Victor Raskuk will portray romantic rival 'Jose' in the upcoming big screen adaptation of 50 SHADES OF GREY from Universal Pictures and Focus Features.

The film adaptation of EL James' best selling novel will also star Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele and Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey. Sam Taylor-Johnson will direct.

Jose is described as "the aspiring photographer and classmate of Anastasia, whose close friendship with the young girl - he'd like it to be more - pits him as rival for her affections with Grey, the wealthy businessman whose warped past leaves him with a need to dominate his partners and unable to accept Anastasia on equal terms."

The actor got his big break in the role of skateboarder Tony Alva in The Lords Of Dogtown. His other acting credits include HBO's How to Make It In America, Raising Victor Vargas and Che, directed by Steven Soderbergh. He will soon be seen on the big screen in Godzilla.
