Niall Leonard, the husband of EL James, will write the Fifty Shades Of Grey sequel.
The news comes after creative differences between Fifty Shades writer EL James and director Sam Taylor Johnson caused her to quit the franchise. Niall will replace the original film's screenwriter Kelly Marcel.
EL James' hubby has previously worked on Monarch Of The Glen, Wire In The Blood and Wild At Heart.
Despite making LOADS of money, the first Fifty Shades film received lukewarm reviews.
Speaking to Digital Spy, EL James opened up about her clashes with Fifty Shades' director: "It was hard in places
"But any creative process they're going to have disagreements between all sorts of people but we got there in the end and I think the fans will be really pleased."
