Next up it’s Dakota Johnson, done playing Anastasia Steele — here instead she’s… well, we’re not entirely sure. “I can’t really tell you too much,” Goddard repeats apologetically. “She’s walking into the lobby, everyone is showing up at the hotel — you can read into that whether they’re a guest or not. Her name is Emily Summerspring, and that’s about all I can tell you. I take naming characters very seriously. I’m a fan of crime fiction and a lot of this movie was very much inspired by Jim Thompson and Dashiell Hammett, Flannery O’Connor, James Elroy. All of those authors very clearly take pride in their character names. I’m a big believer that when you go to an actor, if you show care and love in character names it’s a good sign that you’re going to show care and love in the characters themselves.”
