Plans to make 'Rub & Tug' could reportedly be scrapped following Scarlett Johansson's recent withdrawal from the project.
The 33-year-old actress had initially accepted a role in the controversial movie, which tells the story of a mob-linked massage parlour owner, but Scarlett later withdrew from the film amid a backlash over plans for her to play Dante 'Tex' Gill, who operated massage parlours as a front for prostitution.
Gill - who had relationships with women and referred to himself as "he" - was born a woman, but dressed as a man.
In light of the backlash from the trans community and others, Scarlett pulled out of the project last week and efforts to make the film at all have now been thrown into serious doubt.
