LOS ANGELES - Scarlett Johansson might be willing to bear her soul on the big screen — but skin is another story.

According to People magazine, Scarlett will not play porn queen Jenna Jameson in the film adaptation of her autobiography, contrary to widespread reports.

“Scarlett has never seen a script nor been approached about this project,” a rep for the actress told People. “She also has no interest in playing this role.”

When People caught up with Jenna at Comic-Con over the weekend in San Diego, the adult film star said she was enamored with the 22-year-old Scarlett after seeing “Lost In Translation.”

“I remember thinking to myself, this girl has such a sexuality without even really trying to be sexy,” the 33-year-old Jenna said. “I was like, ‘This girl could play me.’ I love her. She's amazing. She's smart, she's funny ... She's stunning.”

Jenna also told People the movie about her will be called “Heartbreaker,” based on her 2004 book, "How to Make Love Like a Porn Star,” which chronicled her rise to fame as a porn star.

But whoever ends up playing the role, for Jenna it's about much more than a pretty face.

“I don't want someone who's going to go in there and be, like, bouncing around,” she said. “I want someone who can bring some depth.”
