A HOST of stars have been signed up for the movie version of Irvine Welsh's controversial novel Ecstasy.
Filming of the Trainspotting writer's book starts next month in Scotland.
And the cast, including Smallville star Erica Durance, are lined up for some steamy scenes.
Erica said yesterday: "This is a story revolving around the love drug ecstasy. And it's fair to say that just about everyone is going to end up naked at some point in the movie."
The 28-year-old Canadian, who recently graced the front cover of the 200th edition of FHM magazine, is better known as Superman's girlfriend Lois Lane in the hit TV series.
Erica will star alongside Hollyoaks pin-up Elize Du Toit, 25. And Welsh himself will make an appearance.

Richard E Grant and Trevor Eve will also star alongside a host of home-grown actors.
Tony Curran, Billy Boyd, Gary Lewis, Jenni Falconer and Bill Paterson all feature, as will Chewin' The Fat trio Ford Kiernan, Greg Hemphill and Karen Dunbar.
And there are hopes that the team will clinch Shakespeare In Love star Joseph Feinnes for the lead role of Edinburgh drug dealer Lloyd.
