Fans of El Reg's fave bespeckled thespiatrix Lindsay Lohan will be gutted to learn she will not be interpreting Linda Lovelace.

Lohan's prison mugshot. Pic: Los Angeles County Sheriff's DepartmentLohan was to have tackled the 1970s pornstress in a flick entitled Inferno. Back in May, producer Wali Razaqi told the LA Times he considered the role "one of the most challenging roles any actor could play", noting that "it's gonna take everything Lindsay has to really be able to pull it off".

Sadly, Lohan won't now be be pulling anything off. According to AP, director Matthew Wilder told E! News: "We are withdrawing our offer from Lindsay Lohan - we are currently in negotiations [with another actress] and working out the legalities of bringing her onboard."

He added: "We have stuck by Lindsay very patiently for a long time with a lot of love and support. Ultimately, the impossibility of insuring her - and some other issues - have made it impossible for us to go forward."

I was looking forward to the infamous "dog scene". :(

This might be one of those things that Lindsay might be grateful for, 10 years later. Especially if she has children at that point-most celebrity moms would probably rather have their kids watch them in innocent Disney movies than playing a porn star.


I don't want to know about the infamous dog scene.

Now where are they going to find another actress who can duplicate that same sense of drugged out sexuality and complete abandon? Oh, yeah, it's Hollywood...

Courtney Love is too old and her mileage is definitely showing.


On the other hand, Juliette Lewis is good at playing skanks without becoming one herself, so maybe she's the right girl for the part.

Courtney Love would have been perfect if she were younger. I wonder who else they will have to get to play pornstarts? Sheryl Crow is a dead ringer for Marilyn Chambers, and Ron Jeremy can always play himself.

Ron Jeremy can always play himself.

Ron Jeremy has some pretty good chops as an actor.

I was in it with her.....

I was young and foolish. :p

Yes, but on second thought, he doesn't really look the way that he did back then >cough*understatement*cough<. He'd be great in a cameo, though.
