Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman are directing a new biopic about the life of legendary porn star Linda Lovelace, from a script by W. Merritt Johnson and Andy Bellin. Based on ‘The Complete Linda Lovelace’ a book by Eric Danville that was published in 2001, one year before Lovelace died.
Kate Hudson was the first to take the role, then possibly Olivia Wilde
and now it the 25 year old Amanda Seyfried may play adult film celebrity in a biopic movie called 'Lovelace' that is one of two upcoming and competing films about the star of 1972s pornographic film Deep Throat – the other project, 'Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story', would star Malin Akerman and Matt Dillon.
Peter Sarsgaard stars of Green Lantern talks to play Linda’s pornographer husband, Chuck Traynor.
Linda is famously known for her performance in a controversial 1972 hardcore porn film Deep Throat, which was one of the highest grossing independent movies of all time. She was just a schoolgirl in Florida named Linda Boreman before she met and married Chuck, who transformed her into the international sex star. She later denounced her pornography career, claiming that she had been horribly victimized and forced into it by Traynor and others.
Friedman told L.A. Times in April:
"The seeds of celebrity culture were just beginning to sprout then, and while the phenomenon of Linda Lovelace feels so familiar with all the Web celebrity stuff we’re inundated with now, but back then it was really something new.There was also the evolution of sexual consciousness in this country, and she became the poster child for various phases of that."
The Lovelace pic will be ready to start the production in January 2012.
