First Look At Lindsay Lohan As Liz Taylor
June 4 2012, Published 8:00 a.m. ET
Lindsay Lohan is seen in a just-released publicity photo in her full Elizabeth Taylor get-up, as she prepares to play the Hollywood icon in Lifetime's made-for-TV biopic Liz & Dick, chronicling the rocky relationship between Taylor and her one-time husband Richard Burton.
The Mean Girls star sports a new 'do in these pics for the film, which is scheduled to be broadcast in October.
As we previously reported, Lindsay is looking at the role as a shot to prove her acting chops in Hollywood again, following years of on-and-off work due to her legal entanglements and personal issues.
"I have always admired and had enormous respect for Elizabeth Taylor. She was not only an incredible actress but an amazing woman as well. I am very honored to have been asked to play this role," Lindsay said in a statement shortly after she was cast in the project.
