"Nothing!" - Sam Taylor-Johnson told IndieWire in a recent interview when asked about the films that were offered to her after Fifty Shades.

Sam Taylor Johnson, 50 Shades of Grey's director, has revealed that she was left struggling to get projects although the movie may have been a big success. 50 Shades of Grey featured Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson in the main roles. The film franchise derived from a top-selling novel of EL James about weird sex. 50 Shades of Grey made a huge profit although the movie was criticized for its status.

Recently, in a interview with Sam Taylor-Johnson, IndieWire asked her about the movies that she were offered after the success of 50 Shades of Grey. She said:  "You'd be shocked at how... Nope, you wouldn't be shocked, unhappily. Nothing".

The director added: "Actually I was still struggling, in absolutely the same spot before that. I would tell my representative, 'I like this book. And I surely like it. So what’s the transaction with it?' 'They are going to David, David, Steven, Steven, and John.’ However I know that I’m totally capable".

50 Shades of Grey's director said that regardless of proving her boldness as a chronicler, she’s still at inferior grades in the cycle of food.

She said: "I have accomplished a short movie. And I accomplished an indie. I have also accomplished a blockbuster. And I have accomplished a TV program. Now I have just done intense small quantity. I’m experienced beyond the board. I have shown I’m capable, although I’m still boundless from that list. It makes me crazy, not just for myself, now that I have all the experience, and I’m also quite confident, I can stroke through the doors when they have beat in my face. However I still wish to complain at the feel of discrimination, decontrol other young moviemakers struggle to set foot in, or someone who’s produced first movie trying to made their second movie. It’s hard, and it shouldn’t be that hard".

Her new movie is a variation of A Million Little Pieces, a James Frey's controversial film. She calls the film that her "passion project’’.
