Millions of men (and quite a few women) cry out in sorrow as People reports that Scarlett Johansson has no plans to portray Jenna Jameson in a biopic based on the porn star's life.Rumours had been going around for months that Johansson was set to star in the film, and Jameson fuelled the fire by telling audiences at last weekend's San Diego Comic Con that the Lost in Translation star was her first choice for the part.
"I love her. She's amazing. She's smart; she's funny; she's stunning," said Jameson. "I remember thinking to myself, this girl has such a sexuality without even really trying to be sexy. I was like, 'This girl could play me.'"
But the male population's premature reach for the box of tissues has been quashed as Johansson's rep denies her involvement in the project.
"Scarlett has never seen a script nor been approached about this project," her rep tells People. "She also has no interest in playing this role."
There's still no word on who else is up for the part, or who Jameson's second choice is. The film, based on Jameson's autobiography, How to Make Love Like a Porn Star, will reportedly be a very explicit look at Jameson's experiences in adult films, and casting the lead role is critical.
"I don't want someone who's going to go in there and be, like, bouncing around," said Jameson at Comic Con. "I want someone who can bring some depth."
Er... I think she means emotional depth.
