Anna Faris has pulled out of producer Brian Grazer’s Linda Lovelace biopic Inferno – because the heavy role is too dramatic for her.

The House Bunny star was lined up to play the infamous porn star in a new movie to be be directed by first-timer Matthew Wilder – but now director and producer are on the hunt for a new leading lady.

Faris tells top film news website Moviehole.net, “I’m going to stick to comedies.”

Lovelace, real name Linda Boreman, shot to fame after starring in 1972 hardcore porn film Deep Throat, which became a cult underground hit. Ironically Boreman later became a spokeswoman for America’s anti-pornography movement.

The actress died from internal injuries following a car crash in Colorado in 2002.

Rocker/actress Courtney Love was reportedly attached to one Lovelace biopic, called Inside Deep Throat, in 2005, but that production stalled.

Erin and I snuck out last night and saw “House Bunny”. I have been dying to see it, and I wasn’t disappointed!  I loved it! It was hilarious!  Anna Faris definitely should stick with the comedies, she was absolutely brilliant!

I wasn’t annoyed with either Rumer Willis or Katherine McPhee, which I totally expected.  It was a really fun movie – you should check it out with your girlfriends!

Speak Up!: Have you seen it yet? What did you think?

Hugh Hefner is so impressed with sexy star Anna Faris’ portrayal as a Playboy bunny, he’s made her an honorary member of his extended family.

Hefner and his girlfriends have already been treated to a screening of Faris’ new film House Bunny, which she produces and stars in – as a model forced out of the Playboy mansion. And he loves it.

In fact Hefner is such a fan of the comedy, in which he has a cameo, he insisted the Scary Movie star was allowed to keep her Playboy necklace after the film wrapped – making her an honorary bunny.

Faris says, “They were kind enough to give me a few of the Playboy bunny necklaces that I wear in the film. I mean they’re not that expensive but it means a lot.”

Anna Faris still feels a little sore about mocking Cameron Diaz in Lost In Translation – because she had no idea she was lampooning the Charlie’s Angels star.

It has become fabled that writer/director Sofia Coppola was poking fun at Diaz in the film, and cast Faris as the movie star’s alter-ego. But the Scary Movie star had no idea.

She says, “That’s been really hard… I auditioned, without having read the script, pretty much exactly the way I played it (character) in the movie. I filmed for only about a week, so I didn’t get that much one-on-one time with Sofia Coppola. When the movie came out eight or nine months later and these questions started coming, I felt blindsided. I felt defensive at first… I felt so terrible about the whole thing.”

Faris still cannot believe her Lost In Translation character is based on Diaz, despite the rumors: “I don’t think Sofia’s that vindictive”

Anna Faris researched her role as a Playboy outcast in new comedy House Bunny by wandering around Hugh Hefner’s famous Holmby Hills, California mansion.

In the film, the star plays a Playboy regular who becomes a sorority mother at college after she’s
kicked out of the mansion.

And to get a feel for life at Hefner’s fabled pad, Faris spent time there.

She says, “There are peacocks wandering around and beautiful girls and oddly placed bottles of baby oil. I checked out the grotto, but I didn’t go in. There’s the old addage you might get pregnant.”

And Faris is planning a return trip – House Bunny’s premiere party will be held at the Playboy Mansion.

She giggles, “I’m taking my mom.”
