"There&amp;#39;s an interesting casting development for the Elizabeth Taylor movie we talked about last week: Lindsay Lohan isn&amp;#39;t the only one vying for the role of the screen legend. She&amp;#39;s in hot competition against Megan Fox!\nPinterestFacebookPHOTO: 2006 Getty Images&amp;quot;I&amp;#39;ve been talking to Lindsay Lohan directly, and with her reps, and have been in conversations with other actresses, including Megan Fox,&amp;quot; Larry Thompson, the executive producer of the upcoming Lifetime film Liz and Dick said. &amp;quot;It&amp;#39;s a very serious selection. It&amp;#39;s like casting for Hollywood royalty.&amp;quot;\nAdding Megan to the mix for the movie--which will focus on Elizabeth&amp;#39;s stormy relationship with her *Cleopatra *costar Richard Burton, whom she married not once but twice--certainly makes things more interesting, doesn&amp;#39;t it? Personally, I think Megan better resembles the late movie icon. Of course, she doesn&amp;#39;t have the violet eyes, but who does. Meanwhile, Lindsay certainly has the acting chops, but her last few years haven&amp;#39;t been focused on acting and that could mean she&amp;#39;s a little rusty for such a big part. Let&amp;#39;s see how the ladies stack up next to the late, great Dame Elizabeth...\nPinterestFacebookReal Name:  Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor  Lindsay Dee Lohan  Megan Denise Fox    Place of Birth:  London, England  New York, NY  Oakridge, Tenn.
