Jamie Dornan has gone from flying under the radar to becoming one of show business' hottest commodities.
Dornan, 31, is busy filming the highly anticipated "Fifty Shades of Grey" movie in Vancouver, Canada. Even though he's currently busy filming, his former employer, ABC's "Once Upon a Time," is expressing interest in having him return to the hit series.
Dornan appeared on the series as the Huntsman, but was killed off in season three of the show, which allowed him to take on the role of kinky businessman Christian Grey in "Fifty Shades."
Access Hollywood reports that the producers of "Once Upon a Time" were hopeful that the British hunk would return to the show for the third season. However, his filming schedule would not allow him time off to return to the series.
"He's a friend of ours, he's a friend of the show and unfortunately, this year, he goes right from [Fifty Shades] to The Fall..." executive producer Edward Kitsis told Access Hollywood, referring to his upcoming appearance on the BBC crime series.
"We miss him dearly," co-producer Adam Horowitz added.
The producers said that he would always be a welcome addition to the show, if he ever has time to return to it.
"Obviously... we'd love to have him if he ever wanted to come back, but he is quite busy right now, and rightfully so. He's very talented," Horowitz continued.
While he's busy with filming, it's clear that he enjoys watching the hit Netflix series "House of Cards" in his down time.
Producer Dana Brunetti shared a photo of him and Dornan together in his trailer while on the set of "Fifty Shades," in which Dornan is wearing a Freddy's BBQ Joint t-shirt, a reference to the rib joint featured on "House of Cards."
"Fifty Shades of Grey" is currently being filmed and is expected to hit theaters in winter 2015.
