When you start getting replaced in movies there are some serious issues going on especially considering I don’t think Lindsay Lohan is being replaced because it was her idea. Production Weekly is reporting that Bryce Dallas Howard is in negotiations to replace Lindsay Lohan as the female lead in Tennessee Williams’ The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond.
I am sure the recent word that Lohan has been causing trouble on the set of I Know Who Killed Me hasn’t helped her case and probably won’t help her case in the future.
Howard will join Chris Evans, Ellen Burstyn and David Strathairn for director Jodie Markell who is making her directorial debut. The story follows a rebellious socialite, Fisher Willow (Howard), is caught up in a world of social conventions, glittering society balls, and her father’s greed that she desperately wants to escape. Her love for Jimmy (Evans), a handsome farm hand may be her only way out. Burstyn would play Fisher’s mother and Strathairn would play Jimmy’s alcoholic father.
I guess the “rebellious socialite” part of that is the reason Lohan was first considered. She has certainly become more of a socialite than an actress over the past year or so. I can hear the director now, “Okay Bryce, imagine you are Lindsay Lohan… and… Action!”
