Chris recently spoke with Access Hollywood while attending CinemaCon, see what he had to say below…

“I do know about ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ because Alice Eve, who’s in our film, [the ‘Star Trek’ sequel], has been reading it like crazy, so yeah, I’ve heard about it,” he told Access Hollywood at CinemaCon 2012 in Las Vegas on Monday.

When asked if he’d play the novel’s Christian Grey, the square-jawed hunk didn’t say no.

“It’d be a hell of a choice for me, I think,” he smiled. “It sounds like an interesting film.”

Chris is currently reprising his role as James T. Kirk in the J.J. Abrams helmed “Star Trek” sequel, and he said the film is going to impress.

“Of course I’m gonna tell you I think it’s gonna be better,” he laughed. “You pick up the characters from where they left off, and the development of the characters — I think — is just as exciting as the first one.

“And it’s relentless,” he added. “I think that’s the best adjective I can use.”

Chris said the team is actually close to wrapping up the second installment in the sci-fi reboot.

“We’re almost done,” he told Access. “It’s wrapping up very soon. It’s just as action-packed as the first one.”
