Director Matthew Wilder felt reborn after he decided to replaced Lindsay Lohan and  hiring  the services of actress Malin Akerman to play as porn star Linda Lovelace in the biopic Inferno.

Wilder tells radaronline, “I feel like 16 tons of weight are off my mind not having to deal with the Lindsay Lohan situation. We have not heard anything from Lindsay and her camp recently but we wish her and them well. I still think she has great talent and if she respects those gifts then she will go on to show people what she is capable of doing.”

Talking about Malin Akerman, the Inferno said, “I love working with her, she is sensitive and hard-working and I think it’s a great decision for our project."

No more delays but Wilder must also thanked Lindsay for her controversial situation. It created a buzz about the forthcoming movie. .. Production will start shooting in February 2011.
