After wrapping up her newest film, Lindsay Lohan has gone back to her roots as she debuted her red locks late Tuesday night (July 3).

The 26-year-old actress snapped a picture of herself in a lavish setting with her long, flowing fiery coif adding the caption, “Red again” on her Instagram account.

The “Mean Girls” star recently finished her production of “Liz & Dick” for Lifetime where she portrays the Hollywood icon Elizabeth Taylor.

Producer Larry Thompson recently told E!, “We have wrapped principal photography on Liz & Dick and Lindsay Lohan and Grant Bowler’s performances are picture perfect,” adding, ““The cinematic drama of the Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton love story which unfolds on screen is much more exciting and everlasting than the drama during production that took place off screen.”

What do you think of Lindsay’s new look?

Falling victim to another wardrobe malfunction, Lindsay Lohan put on a peep show while filming a scene for “Liz & Dick” -as her boobs fell out of her dress while on the Los Angeles, California set on Monday (June 4).

Channeling Elizabeth Taylor, the 25-year-old actress went bra-less in a low-cut stripped halter dress which revealed more than hoped for (we think…) during a scene in which her co-star, Grant Bowler (who plays Taylor’s husband, Richard Burton), aggressively grabbed Lohan’s arm.

After adjusting her dress and laughing off the slip-up, Lindsay prepared to film another take of the heated scene on the luxury water vessel – which is said to recreate Taylor and Burton’s Naples vacation in 1965, according to the Daily Mail.

Expected to premiere in October of 2012, the Lifetime flick “Liz & Dick” follows the roller coaster romance between Taylor and Burton who married and divorced each other twice, and although many thought casting Lohan for the part was a mistake, the films producer, Larry Thompson, is confident she is the perfect person for the role.

“Maybe a lot of younger people don’t know Elizabeth Taylor that well. They don’t realize that when this affair happened they were the most famous people in the world. If they think that Lindsay lives a scandalous life, these people invented scandal.”

LiLo seems pretty confident as well, telling Access Hollywood earlier this year, “I know that I’m great and I know that I know Liz Taylor really well, I’m really lucky to be able to do this role and I just want to honor her the way she should be honored because she’s helped a lot of people in her life.”

Making a big comeback in the acting world, Lindsay Lohan has officially announced that she is set to play Elizabeth Taylor’s character in the new Lifetime original movie, “Liz and Dick.”

Over the recent months there’s been numerous rumors spread that the “Mean Girls” star would be playing the coveted role, but her recent run-ins with the law were expected to ruin any chances of the collaboration.

“We have wanted Lindsay from day one,” said Larry Thompson, executive producer, in an interview with E! News. “She had a lot in her life that was going on. We needed to give her time to take care of her business, and while we negotiated the deal for her we prayed for her—and wonderfully she has behaved. She’s cleared herself and we’re ready to start this movie.”

The 25-year-old actress expressed her excitement for the role in a recent press release, stating, “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.”

The film will portray the late actress’ love affair with Richard Burton and its impact on the media. The couple left their spouses after meeting during the production of “Cleopatra” in the early sixties. They fell in love, married and divorced ten years later only to get married again in 1975, which ended in a second divorce.

“We are thrilled Lindsay will portray beloved Hollywood legend Elizabeth Taylor,” said Rob Sharenow, Executive Vice President of Lifetime Networks in a statement. “She is one of the rare actresses who possess the talent, beauty and intrigue to capture the spirit of such a provocative icon.”

“Liz & Dick” is set to begin filming in early June in Los Angeles.

Now that she’s steering clear of the club scene, Lindsay Lohan spent her Saturday evening (January 21) shopping it up at 14 Karats jewelry store in Los Angeles, California.

Clad in an all-black outfit sans bra with a brown leather jacket, the “Mean Girls” starlet spent the evening browsing the store’s offerings before emerging to find two parking tickets adorning her black Porsche sports car’s windshield.

The retail outing comes just days after reports emerged telling the LiLo is in the running to land the role of Elizabeth Taylor in a movie about the star’s life.

With Megan Fox’s name also having been mentioned, the film’s executive producer Larry Thompson told E! News, “I’ve been talking to Lindsay Lohan directly, and with her reps, and have been in conversations with other actresses, including Megan Fox. It’s a very serious selection. It’s like casting for Hollywood royalty.”

Before being able to take the job, Miss Lohan still must finish off her probation requirements – as she has another progress hearing scheduled for February 15 with her final hearing slated to take place on March 29.

Gearing up for a spot of travel, Megan Fox was seen arriving at LAX International Airport yesterday afternoon (January 17).

The “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” starlet tried her best to hide from the paparazzi as she headed into the terminal to find her departure gate.

And it sounds like Megan is giving Lindsay Lohan a run for her money regarding the role of Elizabeth Taylor in the upcoming Lifetime flick “Liz and Dick.”

Executive producer Larry Thompson told press, “I’ve been talking to Lindsay Lohan directly, and with her reps, and have been in conversations with other actresses, including Megan Fox. It’s a very serious selection. It’s like casting for Hollywood royalty.”
