Julianna Margulies turns down ‘thrilling’ ‘lesbian porn star’ role for son

Washington: Actress Julianna Margulies has admitted that she was secretly "thrilled" on being offered a movie role as a ‘lesbian porn star’, but turned it down for the sake of her young child.

"I love the role I play, and I work 10 months out of the year, so the 10 weeks I have off - it``s just not worth it to me to do another project. There``s been some interesting offers this year because I said, ``Well, if I do anything, it should be really opposite of what I do`` - and I got offered a porn movie," Contactmusic quoted her as telling The Hollywood Reporter. ‘The Good Wife’ star got the script for the movie after admitting she``d love to take on a job completely different from the hit legal drama. However, she didn``t expect to be asked to play such a raunchy role. Margulies, 44, acknowledged that the movie wasn``t exactly porn, but the character she was offered was too risqué for her liking. "It`s not a porn. James Franco is doing it and attracting all these people. But I was like, ultimately: ``I`m a lesbian porn star going down on women? I can`t. I have a child. It wasn`t that I was insulted by it. I was actually thrilled by it,” she explained. ANI
