Chloe Sevigny cast in Linda Lovelace biopic after Moore backs out

Washington, Jan 27 (ANI): Chloe Sevigny has joined the cast of Linda Lovelace biopic hardly a day after Demi Moore drops out of her cameo role as Gloria Steinem.

Sevigny was roped in for the role of "a feminist journalist assigned to write a story about Lovelace."

Moore, who was hospitalized on Monday night, is seeking "professional assistance to treat her exhaustion and improve her overall health," according to her representative.

However, it is not clear if Sevigny's journalist role in Lovelace and the Steinem cameo are one and the same, People magazine reported.

The shooting for the film started in Los Angeles last month.

The movie stars Amanda Seyfried in the title role alongside Peter Sarsgaard, Debi Mazar, Adam Brody, Chris Noth, Sharon Stone and Juno Temple. (ANI)
