Demi, who was looking forward to playing the feminist icon, had a scary medical emergency this week and will be seeking help for exhaustion and to improve her overall health.
Although SJP is a surprise choice to play Gloria, who teamed up with Linda Lovelace during the anti-pornography movement in the early 80s, the Sex and the City star is ditching her softer side and geared up to begin filming in NYC on Monday.
