Don Johnson may not be seeing his daughter Dakota Johnson in Fifty Shades of Grey when the film opens, but that doesn't mean the actor doesn't support her in the role.

Did Lucy Hale Audition For Dakota Johnson's Role As Anastasia Steele?

In a new interview, Don said he thought Dakota would be "spectacular" in the highly anticipated role of Anastasia Steele.

"This is the family business," Don reportedly told Good Morning Britain. "This is what we do, and I am absolutely certain that Dakota will take a piece of material and a character which a lot of people might imagine could be inappropriate in some ways and turn it into something spectacular."

Rita Ora Says Shooting Fifty Shades Was 'Best Experience'

"Speaking like a proud father and a seasoned professional, I can tell you that she is a gifted, gifted actress," Don continued "and this will just be one part in a long line of tremendous performances in her career."

Don had previously said that he thought Fifty Shades of Grey would be a "blip" in Dakota's career.

Despite being proud of his daughter, Don said he wouldn't be seeing the film anyways. "It's not something I would go to anyway," Don said defending his choice. "I probably will not see it just because it's not a movie I would see. I've never seen The Vampire Diaries, I've never seen Twilight. It's in a category of films that I just wouldn't be interested in."
