Lindsay Lohan fired, Malin Akerman hired

Malin Akerman replaces Lindsay Lohan in Inferno

While you were away over the weekend, Lindsay Lohan was dropped from the Linda Lovelace biopic Inferno (i.e. literally the only thing she had going in life), and replaced with Malin Akerman. The director of the film Matthew Wilder told E!:

"We have stuck by Lindsay very patiently for a long time with a lot of love and support," Wilder says. "Ultimately, the impossibility of insuring her—and some other issues—have made it impossible for us to go forward."

Another source lied to Radar:

"Lindsay has realized that in order to get her life and career back on track, she has to be very selective with her projects," the insider says. "She wants to pursue projects like the ones that made her successful.

"She also realizes that she doesn't need to identify with roles that relate to issues she dealt with. Everyone on her treatment team has stressed that."

Oh yeah, clearly Lindsay has so much going for her right now that she can afford to be very selective. Her career is like a rocket, soaring to heights unkown. Everyone wants her. Martin Scorsese actually called her at Betty Ford just the other day. He asked if her refrigerator was running and then giggled uncontrollably and hung up.

Master Yoda is obviously a virgin.

That girl looks like some kind of twiggy alien.

Her head is 3 times the normal size!

Gah!

clearly, the "source" is Dina Lohan. Who else could be that delusional and believe that she has any other options to choose from

I think this is actually a step down for Malin. It's never a good career move when you lower yourself to taking Lindsay Lohan's scraps. Maybe this means she'll be doing porn soon too.

i can completely see where playing a coke whore who performs sex for blow would hit to close to home for LL.

they might as well call it the Lindsay Lohan Autopic.

Malin is way more classier than Lindsanity ever could be. Malin is hot, while Lindsanity certainly is not.

@Anonymous 9:44a.m.: Clearly even you cannot believe the bullshit you just typed. I think you used to party too hard, and/or probably partied with Linds, or you're related to her, that is the only way you can mean what you have typed. Otherwise, you need to lay off the drugs.

She is a lot more slutty looking than our LiLo. Linds just presented to wholesome-clean an apperance.

It's probably for the best that Lindsay didn't play this part. It's probably not wise for her to play a drugged out emotionally unstable person at this point in her life.

But let's face it Linds, you were let go from this project because you're still a danger to any production. Stop trying to spin it to look like you dumped them.
