Despite how it may appear to be, the sets of Fifty Shades of Grey were not free from injuries. Portraying the role of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steel, Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson shared multiple intimate scenes that often resulted in Johnson getting injured.
While talking to Yahoo Movies, the Persuasion star got candid about her experience and revealed the one unfortunate scene that ended up being physically disastrous for her.
“Jamie (Dornan) was throwing me on a bed. We did 17 takes so my head just snapped back all day and when I woke up I couldn’t move my neck. Which was really terrible.”
The unexpected scene, which might appear to be extremely unharming for the viewers, ended up causing unexpected injury to the actress. While she had more than a few injuries, her co-star Dornan escaped unharmed as he later explained to the news site.
“I don’t think I injured myself ever, but I think Dakota came out a little bit worse! I think Dakota has been vocal about how she was bruised up after a couple of days when stuff got a little bit real in the red room.”
Despite the awkward, weird, and painful experience, Dornan described their relationship as almost sibling-like.

In a separate interview with Glamour, the actress revealed that Dornan was extremely protective of her while filming intimate scenes.
