Lindsay Lohan Gets Starring Role In Scary Movie Film

Lindsay Lohan may have been through a tough few years, but she is set for a new starring role...

...in the next 'Scary Movie' film.

Yes, you heard us. The US actress is set for a main role in the next of the 'Scary Movie' goof films.

The starlet, who is busy recreating her screen career after years of personal and legal problems, has officially signed up for 'Scary Movie 5', reports E! News.

The casting news was rumoured for some time and tongues wagging and, as of last month, Li-Lo hadn't officially been offered the part. However, E! reports that she is now definitely on board.

Lindsay Lohan is trying to get life back on track.

A spokesperson for the 26-year-old said she has not signed the deal “as of right this moment” but insiders insist Lohan will be starring in the film.

The first four sequels starred Anna Faris, but she has decided not to reprise her role in another sequel.

'Anger Management' star Charlie Sheen is rumoured to be making an appearance despite the fact his character died in the fourth movie.

The film is expected to be in cinemas in 2012, but if you want to judge Li-Lo's comeback before then, check out her new film, 'The Canyons'.
