Porn Job ‘Terrifies’ Amanda Seyfried: The Linda Lovelace Crymax
WHEN Lindsay Lohan got the chop from the Linda Lovelace biopic for being a big, tragic mess, everyone wondered who would take her gig. That’s because everyone wants to watch a film about porn because it’s likely to feature a lot of sex-scenes but the lighting will be much better than the grot you watch online.
Don’t pretend you don’t.
Anyway, LiLo’s Mean Girls co-star – Amanda Seyfried – has got the job and she’s pretty frightened about the whole Deep Throat thing.
Amanda told ABCNews.com: “It’s going to be really hard and kind of terrifying at the same time.”
She added: “It’s something completely different. I do have some liberties there but I am playing someone that existed in history and had quite an established reputation for something very extreme.”
And since getting the gig, she’s been doing loads of research. Or, ‘watching loads of bongo films online’ if you prefer. She stated further: “I’ve read everything I can possibly read and now I just have to start physically getting into a mode. She was such a different person than what we expect. It’s a good story to tell, and I’m really, really excited about it.”
Grumble flick biopics ahoy! Unless, y’know, it ends up being really upsetting. No-one actively enjoys crymaxing.
