Malin Akerman attending the 2011 People's Choice Awards
"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".

Note from Weirdland: I have to agree with Malin here, Inferno's script, as well as Malin, is beautiful (in a totally different way) and I feel so fortunate of having been able to approach Matthew Wilder's script and I must say it's harrowing and fabulous, with a prodigious ear for the 70's era slang, with striking atmosphere and characters, ferociously defined in all their mightiness and ardor, getting properly its message across without resorting to shock tricks or abusing in any way of Linda Lovelace's ill-fated character.
Lust and sadness go hand in hand, echoing classics as "Belle de jour", "Drugstore Cowboy" or "Boogie Nights". No cheap goods or calculated explotation in this brilliant, mournful transcript. Wilder, whom I consider one of the sharpest guys in this industry (and a movie comrade/friend) is a wildly talented writer and director whose career ahead of him I hope it bestows him many honors and joys.
