The buzz over the film adaptation of E.L. James' "50 Shades of Grey" and its casting process has continued on full speed ahead.  While recent chatter had many fans favoring former "Gilmore Girls" standout Alexis Bledel as one of the favorites to play Anastasia Steele, Alexandra Daddario is now being depicted as a newer and more suitable choice over the 30-year-old.

Most known for her role in the 2010 fantasy flick "Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief," the actress has shown quite the range to pull off the sexy part - she has done adult-themed television work on NBC's "Parenthood" and USA's "White Collar," amongst other roles.

A description given by a Books & Review fan of "50 Shades" in June summed up the striking resemblance between the 26-year-old and Steele, the college graduate in the book and love interest to Christian Grey.

"I think Alexandra Daddario is the perfect Ana.  She has the long brown hair, alabaster skin, blue eyes too big for her face & pouty lips.  She has an innocent beauty requiring no makeup & can be played up sexy when need be," said the fan.

As of late, Daddario had recently wrapped work on the sequel "Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters," as well as the slasher film "Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D."

Although no release date on the book's film adaptation has yet to be released, Universal Pictures and Focus Features secured the rights earlier in 2012. The casting process has yet to begin as well.
