"It was really great that in taking the movie because I didn't plan on going back to work right away, but I was dying to work with Kevin. I never thought it would be on something called ''Zack and Miri Make a Porno''. What? So I went and I read the script at his house and I was prepared to say no. I thought I have the perfect out. I just had a kid. No one is going to blame me if I say I just can't do this right now. But it made me laugh out loud and it made me just literally cry. It was just funny."<ref>Topel, Fred. {{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20150402144615/http://www.canmag.com/nw/12644-zack-miri-make-porno-traci-lords "Traci Lords on ''Zack and Miri Make a Porno''"]}}, CanMag, October 28, 2008.</ref><ref>[http://okmagazine.com/uncategorized/traci-lords-dont-call-me-porn-star/ "Traci Lords: Don't Call Me a Porn Star!"], ''[[OK!|OK!

In 2009, Lords appeared in the direct-to-DVD science fiction movie, ''[[Princess of Mars]]'', alongside [[Antonio Sabàto Jr.]] She was disappointed by the final project. "Somewhere in my heart of hearts, I was worried that it might be a crummy movie. The production was just too careless. But I believed the voices of those around me who said 'No, it'll be artistic, no, it'll be creative. You'll look beautiful. We have a very limited budget but honest, you'll be proud.'  They were wrong, it was very bad. At least that was what I was told. After watching the first two minutes I had to turn it off and hide under the covers."<ref>Lords, Traci.
