Lindsay Lohan's little gunplay photographer friend has confirmed that she will be playing the role of Linda Lovelace in an upcoming biopic about the infamous 1972 porno flick, Deep Throat.

Last month, Lohan was reported to have signed on to upcoming indie flick Inferno to play Linda Lovelace, the late porn star most famous for the 1972 hard-core movie Deep Throat. Well, her photographer pal Tyler Shields confirmed to us this weekend that the actress has indeed landed the gig.

Shields says he's talked to the movie's director, Matthew Wilder, about Lohan's role... "[Wilder] contacted me and asked me if I would do the promos for the movie," Shields told us Saturday night at the opening of "Collisions," his new exhibition at Gallery 1018 in downtown L.A. (Source)

If you think about it, this makes perfect sense since the two things Lindsay Lohan is really good at are smoking pole and acting. OK, well technically she's only really good at one of those things. Yeah ... Are they sure "biopic" is the right direction they want to be going with this movie? Personally, I think it's got "remake" written all over it.
