Lindsay Lohan has been fired from Inferno, the Linda Lovelace biopic, following her numerous stints in rehab, legal troubles, and generally unreliable behavior. Writer-director Matthew Wilder has been shockingly supportive up to this point, waiting patiently while the 24-year-old former actress’ countless attempts to overcome her addictions to drugs and alcohol.

Four years after she made "Deep Throat," Linda Lovelace's show business career essentially was over. It was then she met and married a construction worker named Larry Marchiano. The couple moved to Long Island, where they spent several desperate years living on welfare, moving from motel rooms and a friend's living room to rented cottages in Port Jefferson and Montauk.
