"\n\tAdvertisement - Continue Reading Below\n\t\n\nThe Hollywood Reporter recently, well, reported that extra security surrounded Charlie Hunnam at the premiere for this season's Sons of Anarchy. Those buff new bodyguards came thanks to his casting as Christian Grey in the forthcoming 50 Shades of Grey flick \u2014 and over at The Atlantic, it's being speculated the reason for the hired muscle is not just to keep Hunnam a safe distance from giddy admirers wanting to nuzzle his sexy beard growth.\n\nApparently, he also needs protection from fervent fans of the erotic novels who aren't happy with his forthcoming portrayal.They aren't happy at all. Online petitions to replace him with someone more suited for the books' racy S&amp;amp;M action have exceeded 80,000 signatures.A sampling of the petitions' haters: \"Charlie Hunnam looks dirty and very unappealing,\" \u2013Corinne from Carmi, IL.\"My first choice is Ian Somerhalder but Matt Boomer  would also be a very good choice. Much better than Charlie whatever.\" \u2013Emily from Yonkers, NY\"BECAUSE THAT CHARLIE HUNNAM IS A FUCKING FAILURE I KNOW IT I JUST KNOW IT\"\u2014Rae from Quezon City, PhilippinesI mean, jeez, don't hold back Rae. Incidentally, this is my favorite signee: \" to keep my wife happy\" \u2013Michael from Harleysville, PA And in conclusion, Hunnam needs all the protection he can get.Photo Credit: Getty Images "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
