Check Out the 'Liz & Dick' Promotional!

Although we’ve been graced with a few photographs of Lindsay Lohan on-set or posing as the epic Elizabeth Taylor, we now have the official promotional image released for the “Scary Movie 5” star’s Lifetime biopic, "Liz and Dick".

In the still we have Lohan dressed luxuriantly as the “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” icon, sporting a little black dress and a lot of shiny.

Does she nail Taylor? Well, Elizabeth Taylor set a standard for beauty and has remained an icon for generations. America’s favorite pedestrian-hitting party girl kind of manages to look like a frat girl in a Taylor Halloween costume, trying to draw attention away from her stomach and direct it to her boobs (at least that’s how I’m reading this pose).

Beside Lohan’s awkward stance is a long list of well-bolded words intended to be provocative. Diamonds. Scandal. Front Page. Beautiful. Etc.

Also, “Provocative,” in case you didn’t get the point. Yawn.

Of playing Taylor, Lohan has said, "I have always admired and had enormous respect for Elizabeth Taylor. She was not only an incredible actress but an amazing woman as well.”

Will Lohan be able to emulate the late and great Elizabeth Taylor?

I’m casting my vote in the “Heck NO” ballot box. Seriously, this is Lindsay Lohan. Casting her as Taylor is kind of a horrifying affront or some hilariously well-done joke I'm not in on.

But I’ll tune in to Lifetime this November, because I want to see just how badly Lohan tries, or doesn’t try, to get the part down. If it turns out to be as cringe-worthy as I’m expecting, at least I’ll get a few chuckles in.

And if it’s a sleeper hit, then hey, I got to watch a great movie.

... Starring Lindsay Lohan?

Yeah, so you see the problem here.

What do you think of Lohan in the role? Can she nail it?
