Lily James is rounding out an eventful year by taking on her biggest role yet. The actress is set to play 90s icon Pamela Anderson in an upcoming bio-series about the star’s ill-fated marriage to Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee. The Hulu series, aptly titled Pam & Tommy, will feature Sebastian Stan as Lee, and also stars Seth Rogen as the party responsible for the couple’s infamous leaked sex tape. The episodes will cover the former Playboy model’s wild life with Lee, the couple married on a beach in Cancun in 1995 after meeting each other four days before. While on their honeymoon they filmed themselves having sex but the tape was eventually stolen from their home by an electrician and distributed, sparking a long and highly publicised legal dispute.
While Anderson and Lee are not directly involved in the production, they are said to be aware it is being made.
The couple divorced in 1998 after three years of marriage, during which time they were regulars on the celebrity scene, dominating tabloid headlines.
