Investigative journalist Steinem in 1963, at the Playboy Club in Manhattan, and Moore in 1996, starring in Striptease.

Freed from the clutches of Kutcher, Demi Moore is back to work playing feminist icon Gloria Steinem in an upcoming movie about Bronx-born Linda Boreman, who—under the name Linda Lovelace—is most noted for her appearance in the notorious 1972 adult film Deep Throat. At the time, the film grossed millions, launched Lovelace into spotlight, and sparked a firestorm of debate on cultural permissiveness. Not since her starring role as a single mom stripper with knack for political bribery has Moore grasped a role with such gravitas.

Lovelace recounts the harrowing and provocative tale of the eponymous porn star as she navigates the industry during the 1970s. Later a strident anti-porn activist, Boreman denounced her participation in porn flicks, claiming she was the victim of a coercive and violent husband who forced her to perform at gunpoint. Boreman's husband Chuck Traynor will be played by Peter Sarsgaard with Hank Azaria as Deep Throat director Jerry Damiano and Adam Brody as mustachioed porn star Harry Reems.

Not to be outdone by Tina Yothers, Amanda Seyfried has accepted the titular role. Sharon Stone, Wes Bentley, Robert Patrick, Bobby Cannavale, and Chris Noth are getting in on the action too. And last, but not least, James Franco will don silk pajamas for his role as Playboy founder Hugh Hefner.

Lovelace, which began filming in December, isn't slated to hit the big screen until later this year, but if you just can't wait to get your Demi fix, you can catch a glimpse this Spring in the comedy LOL co-starring Miley Cyrus.
