Here's how much money Dakota Johnson made from trilogy 'Fifty Shades of Grey' 

 Hollywood starlet Dakota Johnson’s Fifty Shades of Grey salary got a huge bump!

Despite all the hype surrounding the film, Dakota took home $250,000 for Fifty Shades of Grey.

The movie ended up being a blockbuster with traits of a BDSM and sadism on display, essayed by Jamie Dornan.

The erotic drama made around $570 million at the box office in no time, labeling Dakota one of the top-grossing actors of 2015.

Emily Blunt’s fruitful advice turned out to be an inspiration for Dakota due to which she said yes to the role of Anastasia Steele in the much-loved movie.

Talking about the same with Hollywood Reporter, the Persuasion actress said, "I couldn’t talk about it to anybody. Nobody in my family knew. I was cast [and] I remember I spoke to Emily Blunt and I was like, ‘Should I do this trilogy? Because I want to have a really special career, and I want to make a certain kind of film…and I know that this is going to change things."

"She was like, ‘Fucking do it if it feels right. Just do it. Always do what you want to do."

The statement ‘Always do what you want to do’ changed things for Dakota and she is now considered as famous.

Dakota reached heights of success in no time and made headlines over dating Coldplay head Chris Martin.

At the age of 10, Dakota made her debut with a minor role in the dark comedy film Crazy in Alabama.
