Undaunted, the Internet persists connecting Lohan to the Lovelace role and now we have this version from www.foxnews.com:

Lindsay Lohan’s luck may finally be turning.

Just a week after Fox411.com reported exclusively that Lindsay Lohan’s latest movie role, an opportunity to replace Katie Holmes in “The Other Side,” had dried up because of concerns over her lifestyle, reports have surfaced that she is being strongly considered for the lead role in an independent film about the life of “Deep Throat” star Linda Lovelace.

The photographer who took the shocking photos of Lohan holding a gun to her mouth, Tyler Shields, told E! Online that Lohan had already landed the role in director Matthew Wilder’s film, titled “Inferno.”

“[Wilder] contacted me and asked me if I would do the promos for the movie,” Shields told the website, adding that the official announcement of the film and its star would be made at the Cannes film festival later this month.

In a related story, Shields said he had taken more photographs of Lohan that made the “gun shot” look like a Saturday morning cartoon.

“The photos I have not released will top anything you’ve seen before,” Shields said. “Let’s just say they’re what you’ve seen maybe times 10, maybe times 100.”
