Report: Lindsay Lohan To Play Elizabeth Taylor In Upcoming Movie

Posted on Tue Jan 10, 2012 08:55 AM PDT

LLohanEXCLU111211_03_X17pic230.jpgLindsay Lohan posed for Playboy in a Marilyn Monroe-esque fashion, and now the starlet will be portraying another legend ... Elizabeth Taylor in an upcoming Lifetime movie, according to Deadline.

The 25-year-old actress is reportedly in negotiations to play the lead role in the movie Elizabeth & Richard: A Love Story.

The film will chronicle “the enduring love of movie icons Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, whose fiery romance was the most notorious, publicized and celebrated love affair of its day.”

Wonder who will play the part of Richard Burton opposite Lilo?

We can't wait to find out!



Do you think Lilo would make a good Elizabeth Taylor?

Lindsay is perfect for Taylor.

Liz Taylor :

-had inflated duck lips
-had tattoos all over her body
-was a lesbian
-had a voice like a truck driver

and certainly was a D-list laughing stock. Great choice Lifetime!

oh please let this be true and unlike all the other movies LL has been attached to,let this one happen.
LL thinks she's a "movie star" 'lifetime is basic cable all the way.
it'll be a lot of fun to burst her bubble about that and you know her performance is gonna be terrible.
maybe then a little dent will be put into her delusions and she might realize dressing up as a legend doesn't make you one yourself.
what it's really called is being completely unoriginal.
you are just a tabloid trainwreck own it.

back in the days people called elizabeth taylor a 'whore'. she was a good actress, but also the biggest slut of all time, a scandalous slut. she was most famous for her flashy style and her many marriages (eight, to seven different men), right?! she was also an addict and stayed at the betty ford center for some time. these days people describe her as a 'classy lady' but back in the days people saw her as a woman of promiscuous behavior. media slut shaming began with dame elizabeth taylor. lohan would be perfect for the role if you think she's a slut and an addict, just sayin. hollywood is boring without people like taylor or lohan.

- No NYE parties at Dubai or Vegas... instead Lindsay spent New Year's eve with Diane Keaton at agent John Burnham's party for Woody Allen. John Burnham is Lindsay's new agent. He's also Woody and Diane's agent. The next day Diane tweeted: @lindsaylohan YOU LOOKED BEAUTIFUL LAST NIGHT.
- A possible upcoming role as Elizabeth Taylor. It's like a dream come true.
- And last but not least, no paparazzi pics.

She has a very strong team behind her right now. Let's see:

- new publicist (Honig)
- new agency (I.C.M.)
- new agent John Burnham (head of I.C.M.'s motion picture department)
- talent manager Evan Hainey (Untitled Entertainment)

And don't forget her powerhouse attorney Shawn Holley. I was kinda surprised when I read the news that John Burnham was her new agent. He's one of the most senior talent agents in Hollywood. He has left the William Morris Agency (WMA) to become head of the motion picture department at International Creative Management (I.C.M.). Besides Lindsay his other clients are Woody Allen, Gus van Sant, Sean Penn and Diane Keaton. Lindsay is one lucky lady. Last year Radaronline reported: "Lindsay has given another amazing window of opportunity to fully stage a true Hollywood comeback, which is a dramatic turn of events given that last year, the industry had all written her off. A year ago, Lindsay couldn't even get a meeting at ICM, the fact that such a respected agency is now repping her speaks volumes about what they think of her as an actress." Her new publicist, Steve Honig, is also a well respected Hollywood publicist. Honig Company also reps Amazon, Coca Cola, Universal Studios, The Motion Picture and Televison Fund, Yahoo!, to name a few (see Clients list). Her future is limitless now that she has this incredible team in place. But I think her team is pretty expensive Lol. This might explain why Lindsay spent NYE with John Burnham, Woody Allen and Diane Keaton. Let's hope she'll get the chance to work with these talented people in the near future. Diane already showed support by tweeting Lindsay. And now we have the first reports about a BIG upcoming role, she may soon portray the late, great Elizabeth Taylor. So happy for her.

Deadline - January 9, 2012

Lindsay Lohan In Talks To Play Elizabeth Taylor In Lifetime Movie

After emulating Marilyn Monroe in a series of photo shoots, most recently for Playboy, Lindsay Lohan may be taking on another screen legend, Elizabeth Taylor. I have learned that the 25-year-old actress is in early talks for the female lead in Lifetime's original movie Elizabeth & Richard: A Love Story, chronicling the enduring love of movie icons Taylor and Richard Burton, whose fiery romance was the most notorious, publicized and celebrated love affair of it's day. The film, produced by Larry Thompson (amish Grace) and written by Christopher Monger (Temple Grandin), was originally announced as part as Lifetime's 2011-12 development slate. Lohan, a child actress who successfully transitioned onto young adult roles with Freaky Friday and Mean Girls, has been largely sidelined form her acting career for the past couple of years by stints in rehab, jail, court rooms, and recently a morgue as past of her community service. Lohan's most recent credits include the features Machete and Labor Pains and an arc on ABC's Ugly Betty. LOHAN HAS BEEN COMPARED TO TAYLOR. IN ADDITION TO THEIR PHYSICAL RESEMBLANCE, A 2004 SLATE STORY LISTS A HOST OF OTHER SIMILARITIES: "BOTH HAD DOMINEERING STAGE MOTHERS, LITTLE SEMBLANCE OF A REAL CHILDHOOD, FAME FROM A YOUNG AGE, SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES, PUBLIC EMOTIONAL OUTPOURINGS, AND COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF TABLOID DRAMA. The key difference, though, is that Elizabeth Taylor had a true record of achievement before she became the most notorious movie star in America."

'Carrie' remake is moving ahead!

Deadline, January 4 2012.
MGM/Screen Gems Eye Kimberly Peirce To Direct Remake Of Stephen King's 'Carrie.'
Kimberly Peirce is in talks to direct Carrie, the remake of Stephen King thriller about the telekinetic teenager who gets pushed too far at the prom and wreaks havoc on her fellow high school students. Peirce is best known for helming another troubled female coming-of-age tragedy. the Hilary Swank-starrer Boys Don't Cry. Carrie was previously turned into the 1976 film that stareed Sissy Spacek, John Travolta and Amy Irving, with Piper Laurie as the repressive mother. The script has been written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, whose rewrite work helped save Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark on Broadway. Aguirre-Sacasa set out to write a version of Carrie that is more faithful to the King book, and more grounded than the Brian De Palma-directed film. That kind of grounded material is something Peirce does well. She last directed Stop-Loss and is repped at CAA.

When the remake was first announced last year, Stephen King mentioned to Entertainment Weekly that Lindsay Lohan might be a fun choice to play Carrie. Stephen said "Although Lindsay Lohan as Carrie White... hmmm. It would certainly be fun to cast." Then NextMovie asked Sissy Spacek what she thinks about Lindsay Lohan reprising the role she made famous and she said "I read about it and I was very flattered because they ran a picture of me and of Lindsay Lohan. I was like, 'Oh my God, she's really a beautiful girl' and so I was very flattered. I was also flattered that they were casting someone to look like me instead of the real Carrie described in the book. It's gonna be real interesting." Sissy Spacek was 27 when Carrie came out. Lindsay (25) would be a perfect choice for the role of Carrie. And of course Lindsay is the Queen of successful remakes. The Parent Trap featuring Lindsay was more successful than the original one. Herbie Fully Loaded was a remake, too.

3:16 Yes. there are a lot of similarities between Lindsay and Elizabeth Taylor. But she also has a lot in common with Marilyn Monroe.

Hugh Hefner talked to Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson .... When asked if the actress arrived to the photo shoot on time, the Playboy magnate wasn't able to provide an answer, but said if she was truly channeling Marilyn, punctuality would not be one of her strongest points. HH: "I don't know the answer to that, but if she's doing a tribute to Marilyn Monroe, I assume that means she probably didn't show up on time because Marilyn didn't show up on time," he told Shaun. "Marilyn was late also?" Shaun asked. "Oh yes, with regularity," Hef answered.

Reading this Access Hollywood article made me realize that Lindsay and Marilyn have so much in common. Both actresses, both sex symbols, both started their careers as a model, both Playboy cover girls, both had a difficult childhood, both had substance abuse problems (both drugs and alcohol), both always show(ed) up late, both need(ed) male attention. Marilyn's mother had a severe mental condition, Lindsay's dad has mental problems, too. Just as Marilyn, Lindsay's as famous for her personal life as for her acting career. Even today, Marilyn's life, career, and death are brimming with scandal and controversy. Lindsay is one of the only living actresses who's life is full of scandal and controversy. Marilyn was a beautiful, tragic bad girl. Marilyn and Liz Taylor were the bad girls, Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly the good ones. Nowadays every young actress is like Audrey and Grace. Lindsay is the only actress who resembles Marilyn and Liz. The only person who looks like and behaves like Marilyn is Lindsay.

2 famous Marilyn Monroe quotes:
"I've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time."
"I'm invariably late for appointments - sometimes as much as two hours. I've tried to change my ways but the things that make me late are too strong, and too pleasing."

"At least that raggedy crackamuffin is sh*tting on your grave instead of mine for a change!" is what Marilyn Monroe said to Elizabeth Taylor up in the smoking lounge in heaven last night.
This was after it was reported that Lifetime is willing to go bankrupt from spending all of its money on prosthetics, CGI, sandblast equipment and black magic to turn Lindsay Lohan into a Elizabeth Taylor for a biopic.

Lifetime can officially change its slogan from, "Lifetime: Television for Women", into:

"Lifetime: We Just Don't Give A F*ck Anymore".

La Liz herself said it best:

"No one is going to play Elizabeth Taylor but Elizabeth Taylor herself!"

You hear that, Lifetime? Unless you're planning on digging up Liz's corpse, just stop!

Actually, maybe that's not a bad idea. Liz's corpse would look better on camera, give a more believable performance and would never get caught doing lines with her mother on the toilet seat in her bathroom trailer.

marilyn had two eyes, lindsay does too. They both have a nose. oh my gosh they have sooooo much in common!!

oh you delusional lowerhans never cease to amuse.
lindsay has jacksh*t in common with marilyn monroe.
lohan's movie roles could have been played by any other mediocre actress,fact that they were remakes to begin with proves that.
so really you are kidding no one but yourselves. lohan is so tabloid fodder, she was and is so desperate for attention she turned herself into a celebutard. and there she remains.

You are severely delusional if you think LL looks anything like Liz. Jennifer Connelly is a dead ringer for the young Liz. LL is a joke.

Anyone delusional enough to actually believe that LL is getting paid 42 mil for a movie is STUPID, and the enablers who post that are bat shit crazy. Many other actresses who actually look like Liz and aren't on Probation, in jail, stealing necklaces ....would be waaaaay better suited for this role. Ms Taylor would turn over in her grave to think a nasty whore drug addict criminal would play her in a movie. Liz t is the epitome of class, WHOREHAN not so much

Blowhan has about as much business playing Elizabeth as she does playing Marilyn Monroe. Lowhan is a has-been and a star wannable. Kick the brainless whore to the curb!

Wouldn't it be funny if they gave the part to Amanda Seyfried?

I'm a big fan of Elizabeth Taylor and I understand why the producers come up with Lohan's name. I don't know if she's the right choice, but I understand it. I always have to laugh when people say Liz had "class", something Lohan doesn't have. Liz was one of the best actresses ever, but no, she wasn't exactly what you call a "classy lady". Read a biography and you'll know what I mean. She was a naughty woman, married 8 times (not done back then), was a alcoholic, was addicted to pain pills, went to rehab, was a bit crazy, was a man-eating siren, was a diva on set and the list goes on and one. At a certain time in her life she was most famous for her scandalous life. And yes, she was an oscar winner, but she was also tabloid fodder. So yeah, there are some similarities between Lohan and Taylor. Like I said, I don't know if Lohan is the right choice. Btw I consider Meryl Streep or Audrey Hepburn as "classy" actresses. In a way, I hope Lohan will get the role, because I can't think of another actress playing Liz right now. They should go for it. Maybe this is what Lohan needs.

I once saw photos of LiLo as Elizabeth Taylor (for Interview magazine) and there was a striking resemblance between the two. LiLo had short darker hair. They have the same eyebrows and the same mesmerizing green eyes.

Lindsay would make a great Liz Taylor.

What went wrong on The X Factor today with Britney Spears?

Britney definitely had another meltdown. This is proof she's not ready to step back into the spotlight!
I think Britney may have overreacted to a bad audition, but it will be entertaining to watch later!
I think Simon Cowell planned this all along. Brit probably even rehearsed it!
