Charlie Hunnam has admitted that he still regrets for his decision of backing out from the offer of playing the lead role in 'Fifty Shades Of Grey' at the last moment and called it his life's worst professional experience.

The 'Sons of Anarchy' star, who posed shirtless for V Man, told the publication that it was the most emotionally destructive, difficult and heartbreaking thing that he has ever had to deal with professionally, People Magazine reported.

The 35-year-old English actor explained that when he was offered the lead role he had already made a commitment for a role in 'Crimson Peak' and then he stood by his prior commitment.

Reportedly, Hunnam refused to do the role as he was intimidated by the sexual content of the movie.
