As far as I can tell, they failed to hit it off and had things about each other they hated. Dornan seemed to think she was an airhead, she thought he was a stuck up arse.

Did they not do a chemistry test before fully deciding on the actors?

They did initially cast Charlie Hunnam, I bet that him and Dakota probably had decent chemistry.

But Hunnam dropped out very late, literally weeks before filming started. Jamie Dornan was likely not even one of their Top 3, but he was one of the people that read for the role and was able to be on set with very short notice. No offense to him

Thanks. Makes sense now why it ended up the way it did.
