LiLo in talks to star in first movie since rehab stint
By ANITuesday, February 22, 2011
NEW YORK - Lindsay Lohan is in negotiations to star in her first film since finishing her 3-month court-ordered stay at a California rehab facility.
The 24-year-old actress will return by mid-year for a role in “Escaping the Game,” a drama to be filmed in the US and Spain, producer Nathan Folks told RadarOnline.
Folks said contracts are still yet to be signed but expected the deal to be finalized within the next few weeks.
Lohan will play an investigator hired in a case involving missing celebrities who fake their own deaths and create a new life for themselves on a remote island.
“She wants to do it. It’s about celebs who become very famous and can’t take it,” The New York Post quoted Folks as saying.
The movie role comes after Lohan was charged with felony grand theft over a missing 2,500-dollar necklace.
Folks is confident the “Mean Girls” star will stay sober and out of jail, and said he had discovered how to get her insured for his 30 million dollars project.
“We can get her insured if she is with someone who is keeping an eye on her 24/7,” he said.
“Lindsay and I’ve discussed it and she’s already agreed to the condition,” Folks added. (ANI)
