As you may have heard, Lindsay Lohan is no longer doing porn.
But not to worry, because Malin Akerman is filling her Deep Throat shoes. The Watchmen bombshell is set to star in Inferno, a film about ’70s porn star Linda Lovelace. LiLo was originally supposed to play Lovelace, but was ousted in November.
Now, for the first time since being cast, Akerman is talking about the racy role…
“I’m just trying to do all my research and really get the character right,” Akerman told reporters at the People’s Choice Awards. “I’m reading her book and I’m reading any kind of information that I can get my hands on.” Lovelace died in 2002 at age 53 from injuries she suffered in a car accident.
Has she watched any of Lovelace’s adult fare?
“Not yet,” the 32-year-old laughed when asked if she’s ever seen one of Lovelace’s adult films.
So just how raunchy will Akerman get in the flick? “You’ll just have to wait and see,” she teased with a smile.
Earlier today, Malin Akerman was photographed at the Turner TCA event and panel in Los Angeles. I have just added 21 photos from both events into the photo gallery!

Thanks to Brianne, I have just added 91 HD captures of Malin Akerman presenting at the 2011 People’s Choice Awards into our photo gallery.
Last night was the 2011 People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles and as we reported earlier, Malin Akerman was in attendance and presented an award with “True Blood” actor Stephen Moyer. Malin looked amazing in an above the knee length white J. Mendel dress and I have just added the first photos from the arrivals, show, backstage and audience – 95 in total – into the photo gallery!
Malin Akerman dished on the blue carpet about her upcoming Linda Lovelace movie, Inferno (she replaced Lindsay Lohan in the lead role): “I’m very excited. It’s a beautiful script. It’s a story of a woman’s life — who was really tortured,” she told USA TODAY’s Andrea Mandell. “And it needs to be told.”
She wouldn’t reveal how nude she would be in the film. Although shooting is supposed to start in March, she doesn’t know where it’s going to be shooting. “It’s still in negotiations.”
When asked about next projects, she noted that she’s in Happythankyoumoreplease …. and with Ryan Phillippe in The Bang Bang Club, a movie about apartheid.
“For me it’s just about trying new things,” she said.
Malin Akerman Source would love to wish our visitors a very happy and safe New Year’s Eve / New Year’s 2011! Thank you for visiting us in 2010 and please keep coming back to see us in 2011!
