Screenwriter Kelly Marcel says the Fifty Shades of Grey movie is going to be 'raunchy'

The British screenwriter of the Fifty Shades of Grey movie has given an exclusive interview to The Sunday Times in which she confirmed the highly-anticipated film was going to be 'raunchy'.

Kelly Marcel told the newspaper the film version of the bestselling book was not 'going to be Twilight', adding 'it's going to be raunchy, we are 100 per cent going there'.

However she did admit that some sex scenes have been edited out in order to make way for plot.

The film rights to the book, which has become the biggest selling novel in the UK ever, were snapped up by Universal and Focus for $5m dollars.
