Two Biopics on Porn Star Linda Lovelace in the Works

We’re all aware that there are two competing Snow White films coming out next year: one starring Kristen Stewart and one with the acclaimed Julie Roberts.

It seems like many future movies are coming out in pairs. Two more films will duke it out in theatres next year but you wont find any Disney princesses here.

Yahoo News shares that the two biopics on the life of the famed 70s porn star, Linda Lovelace. She passed away in 2002 at the age of 53 after getting into a serious car crash.

“Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story” wont star the troubled actress Linday Lohan, as we all thought. Instead, Malin Akerman (The Watchmen) will take the lead. We assume unlike Lindsay, Malin can come to work on time and not appear drugged out. Malin definitely has more potential to become the next big thing in Hollywood. Yahoo News also reports Sharon Stone will play the role of Linda’s mother.

The other biopic is simply titled Lovelace. The Hollywood Reporter says Amanda Seyfried (Mean Girls, Dear John) will play the adult film star most famously known for “Deep Throat”. Amanda Seyfried has that squeaky clean, cookie cutter image with her blonde hair and gentle blue eyes. It would be rather entertaining to see her play such a controversial and sexual woman. Peter Sarsgaard (An Education, Green Lantern) will play her husband, Chuck Traynor.

Both movies look promising based solely on the actresses playing the lead. I personally may not be able to handle both movies, so whichever one hits theatres first may be the one to see. Looking forward to seeing the trailers.

Sir Perry: Malin Akerman – Silk Spectre II/Woman Of My Dreams

In my travels with andPOP I’ve interviewed just about everyone. From Matt Damon, to Katy Perry and Jeff Dunham, I’ve met some of the most famous people on the planet. So one would hope that I no longer get the pre-interview jitters. Until recently, I was thrown off my game by Watchmen’s leading lady, Malin Akerman. I nearly passed out. I wish I could say I was kidding. She was so attractive I started acting like a nervous eighth grader. However, once I got past the voice cracks and nervous laughter, I got a hold of myself.

What’s more surprising is that she was equally as nice as she was attractive. While Malin was getting her make-up touched up, she actually wanted to talk to me. She asked how long I had been working in the industry and how I liked my job. What’s even stranger is it seemed like she was genuinely having a good time. I was starting to worry that some of my questions may sour the mood.

Initially, I was a little nervous about bringing up the fact that she gets naked in Watchmen. Nevertheless, I knew my interview depended on it; so I did anyways. She was so cool it – didn’t even faze her. We also both agree that it’s frustrating to watch a sex scene with out nudity. Malin added, losing the costume and opting for the birthday suit gave the film a much-needed rawness. I definitely agree with her. Like the rest of the film, the sex scenes were believable and more authentic than the typical comic blockbusters. Watchmen is gritty and Malin was a perfect choice to play your not so typical superhero. Overall, the actress behind The Silk Spectre II was a great interview. In fact, we got along so well that I decided I was going to try something I normally wouldn’t.

It’s not the classiest play to ask for an autograph and some actors won’t even do it. For my friends’ sake, I knew I had to try. As if they wouldn’t already be envious that I had interviewed Malin Akerman, I needed something to remind them of it. Surprisingly, she gladly signed my Watchmen pin that I ‘borrowed’ from the press lounge. I was on a roll and I was starting to think there was some sort of connection between us. Maybe she was my soul mate? Could it be that I had fallen in love with a famous actress? Or perhaps it’s just the fact that she looks amazing in latex. Anyways, I finally mustered up the courage to casually ask for her phone number. As it turns out, she didn’t think her husband would appreciate me calling them at home. So, I left the interview with Malin’s signature with ‘xoxo’ written above it, but no phone number. I wonder if I will ever love again?

Jordan loves movies but Watchmen really struck a chord with him. Was it the beautiful and talented Malin Akerman who has a fantastic performance in the film? Was it the amazing plot? Was it the fact that Jordan always wanted to be a super hero? All of the above are true. Check out our interview with Malin and Jordan’s brief stint as a super hero.
