Why settle for one “50 Shades of Grey” lead when you can have both?
NBC’s iconic “The Tonight Show” clearly took that rhetorical question into account when booking this week’s lineup. After featuring male lead Jamie Dornan on Monday’s show, “Tonight” welcomes female star Dakota Johnson onto Tuesday’s broadcast.
Johnson, who plays Anastasia Steele in the new erotic drama, appears as host Jimmy Fallon’s first interview guest Tuesday. Her visit comes just days before the February 13 theatrical release of “50 Shades.”
“black-ish” star Anthony Anderson also stops by for a chat with Fallon, while Mark Ronson and Mystikal close the episode with a musical performance.
Taped Tuesday afternoon, the February 10 “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” airs at 11:35PM ET on NBC.
