Lindsay Lohan Signs On For Elizabeth Taylor Role

Despite not looking anything like the iconic and legendary actress Elizabeth Taylor, Lindsay Lohan has indeed signed on for the role. She is set to play Liz in the Lifetime movie Liz And Dick. Liz is currently turning over her in her grave at the thought of this twit playing her in anything other than a puppet show.

Sure, six or seven years ago, Lindsay would have made a good Liz, but today after hatcheting up her face to smithereens, she looks more like she would make a better Joan Rivers. Ha.

The movie's Executive Producer, Larry Thompson said, "We have wanted Lindsay from day one. She had a lot in her life that was going on. We needed to give her time to take care of her business, and while we negotiated the deal for her we prayed for her – and wonderfully she has behaved. She's cleared herself and we're ready to start this movie."

"We have wanted Lindsay from day one," Thompson tells E! News in an exclusive interview. "She had a lot in her life that was going on. We needed to give her time to take care of her business, and while we negotiated the deal for her we prayed for her—and wonderfully she has behaved. She's cleared herself and we're ready to start this movie."

He went on to say, "We truly feel that Lindsay Lohan is perfect for Elizabeth Taylor for our movie. I think Lindsay – who is very gifted – deserved another chance. We never, of three pages of 'what if's' in the negotiation, there never was 'what if she can't act.' We know she can act."

Do you think she deserves this second chance? It's not like this is some major motion picture — it's just the Lifetime Channel.
