"Gray is a complicated character, "Shades of Gray co-writer Leah Moore described Dorian Gray. "He has a darker side, which shows itself quite literally in his famous painting, but he also has a conscience and is a bit of a rogue. Over the long years he has lived, there's been a struggle between the two sides of him, and Sara plays a big part in the final battle. I think it's safe to assume there's a painting tucked away somewhere, but even we don't know what it looks like…we'll have to wait and see!"
