Lindsay Lohan may have landed her newest comeback role.
RadarOnline reports that Lohan, recently out of rehab and now in legal trouble for allegedly stealing a necklace -- is lined up to star in "Escaping The Game". Lohan would play -- perhaps ironically -- a journalist out to find celebrities that have escaped to a distant island in order to get out of the paparazzi limelight.
The film's producer, Nathan Folks, says Lindsay is a good friend and is all for doing the project -- so long as she doesn't go to jail, which he's confident she won't -- and has agreed to be monitored 24/7 so that the film can get insured.

Don't call it a comeback -- Lindsay Lohan may lose the part in her own comeback story.
Lohan, who as far back as 2009 was in talks to play a thinly veiled version of her troubled starlet self in producer Richard O'Sullivan's film 'One Night With You,' may be in danger of losing the part thanks to her latest troubles, Richard Johnson's Flash reports in The Daily (iPad-only).
The star, who just recently left a three month stint of rehab -- which had troubles and allegations of its own -- was accused on Tuesday night of stealing a necklace from a Los Angeles jewelry store. Though the necklace was later returned by a Lohan associate, she's under investigation by the Lapd, and if they find wrongdoing, she could be headed back to jail -- and out of the film.
More jail time would mean no screen time,...

HollywoodNews.com: There were rumors that Taylor Swift may be taking over Lindsay Lohan’s role in ‘One Night With You,’ but instead of a replacement, it seems the two young stars may get the chance to share the big screen.
Producer Richard O’Sullivan reportedly wants both women in the film if scheduling works out, states RadarOnline.com. “If Lindsay takes care of her issues and we’re able to bond her then we would want her in the lead role of Nikki,” and if Taylor finishes her touring and recording, O’Sullivan wants to offer her a major supporting role.
The two women couldn’t possibly be more opposite, but maybe Swift could end up being a good influence on Lohan. Would you go see a movie with both of them in it?

Lindsay Lohan was attached to star in "One Night With You" romantic comedy, but her legal problems have forced producers to consider giving the role to Taylor Swift (Valentine's Day). A few months ago the offer was made to Swift, but the singer/actress was in the middle of her tour. To move forward, the filmmakers were once again thinking of going with Lohan, hoping that the actress would be able to overcome her troubles. "It is ready-made for Lindsay," director Richard O'Sullivan previously stated. "But we're proceeding with extreme caution while the Lohan family sorts through their issues during a very trying time." Now that Lohan is in even more trouble after failing a drug test, "One Night" producers have once again returned to Swift and are in the middle of negotiations. If Swift gets the part, this would be the second film that Lohan lost after she was dropped from "The Other Side.

Lindsay Lohan didn't try to hide her Scram anklet yesterday while out enjoying the weather with her sister Ali in La. The girls aren't strangers to a good photo shoot with the device, after Lindsay posed in her bikini and even hit the gym during her last court-ordered stint with a Scram. Lindsay, who was in court last week and posted $300,000 bail on Friday, is making the most of her time as a free woman before returning to rehab - she even found time after her sunbathing to visit a homeless shelter. Her professional plans, meanwhile, seem to be unaffected by her latest legal troubles. Inferno is apparently still moving forward as planned, but LL may be replaced by Taylor Swift in the upcoming comedy One Night With You. View 5 Photos ›...

Lindsay Lohan's legal woes appear to have given Taylor Swift her big movie break - the country sweetheart is the new favourite to replace the Mean Girls actress in a new film about a former child star finding success on a reality TV dating show.
Writer/producer Richard O'Sullivan initially offered Lohan the lead in his new film One Night With You after writing it with her in mind.
He told WENN, "It is ready-made for Lindsay... but we're proceeding with extreme caution while the Lohan family sorts through their issues during a very trying time."
Lohan has since served two stints in jail - the latest a 10-hour stay on Friday - and spent time in a court-ordered lockdown rehab. And now it looks as if producers have moved on from the troubled star.
A source says, "It appears the romantic comedy may finally be off the table for Lindsay Lohan. The producers had actually talked to Taylor Swift's agent a few months back about replacing Lindsay, but Taylor was in the middle of her tour.
"Now that Lindsay can't conquer her troubles, they're taking the offer back to Taylor."
It's the second major role Lohan has lost this year - in April, she was dropped from new movie The Other Side.
It won't be Swift's first acting gig - the Love Story singer has appeared on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and in the film Valentine's Day.

Writer/producer Richard O'sullivan has offered Lindsay Lohan a career lifeline just days after the actress was dumped from her latest film project - he wants her to play a character loosely based on herself. The screenwriter penned "One Night With You" with Lohan partly in mind and now believes the comedy could be her comeback film - if she'll agree to have a little fun at her own expense.
The script revolves around a former child star, whose reputation is ruined by a series of public scandals. She books a gig on a reality dating show to keep her career afloat and hopefully clean up her image. A source close to the film says, "Basically the character is Lindsay Lohan. Wouldn't it be funny if Lindsay herself was cast? The thinking being, 'Hey, look what 'The Wrestler' did for Mickey Rourke'."

Lindsay and her estranged father Michael are currently embroiled in a war of words after he organised a police-led raid on her Hollywood apartment last week (ends23Apr10) and then appeared on TV insisting the actress was a bad role model for her teenage sister Ali, who lives with her.
