Anna Faris has withdrawn from an upcoming biopic of porn star Linda Lovelace.

The actress pulled out of the lead role in Inferno because she felt it was too intense.

She told Moviehole: "I'm going to stick to comedies."

Lovelace, real name Linda Boreman, was best known for her role in 1972 hardcore porn film Deep Throat. She died from injuries sustained in a car crash in 2002, aged 53.

Matthew Wilder will make his feature directorial debut on the film.
