Malin Akerman replaces Lindsay Lohan in porn star Linda Lovelace biopic
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant
Yesterday we announced that Lindsay Lohan was booted from the film INFERNO: A LINDA LOVELACE STORY, today we find out that she has been replaced by up and coming actress Malin Akerman (known recently for her roles in COUPLES RETREAT, 27 DRESSES and WATCHMEN). Lohan was apparently dropped because there was no way to guarantee that she would be able to hold to the production schedule and the producers loved Akerman for the role as well. The film revolves around the 1970’s porn star Linda Lovelace (who was known for her role in the popular film DEEP THROAT) and follows her life after she became an anti-porn activist. The film INFERO: A LINDA LOVELACE STORY will be directed by Matthew Wilder and will probably begin production soon.
I actually think Malin Akerman will be better in this role as opposed to Lohan but I still feel bad for the former MEAN GIRLS star. To be so young and have so many problems is really just a sad story.
