(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Olivia Wilde insists it would be a "tremendous honour" to play notorious 70s porn star Linda Lovelace.

The Tron: Legacy beauty is considering starring in the movie about the Deep Throat star, which is simply entitled Lovelace. If she signs on, Wilde will reportedly be joined by James Franco, who is keen to team up with his Howl co-directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman.

"It would be a tremendous honour," Wilde told E! Online. "It's such a cool role. She was a fascinating woman."

She's not confirmed in the role yet, and is determined to make sure she chooses the right project to capitalise on her recent success. As well as the Tron sequel, she has blockbuster Cowboys & Aliens and comedy The Change-Up coming to the big screen.

Lovelace isn't the only movie planned about Linda. Lindsay Lohan was replaced by Malin Akerman in a competing biopic. (C) Cover Media
