Following her return to Hollywood after more than a decade away from the silver screen, Lindsay Lohan has expressed interest in joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The actress discussed her future film roles in a recent interview with Forbes, revealing that while she’s “always going to look for” romantic comedy roles — like that of her 2022 festive flick, Falling For Christmas — she elsewhere has her eye on the action genre: “I think I’m always the kind of person that I see what comes and take it as it comes, wherever the scripts lead me,” Lohan said.
She continued, “I’ve never done an action film. I would love to do something with Marvel. Just seeing what comes my way and I’m open to different roles.” Lohan went on to reiterate her affinity for rom-coms, admitting she’s happy to “do a tonne” of films within the genre.

While Lohan might seem like somewhat of an outlier in Marvel’s casting pool, the former child star was rumoured to have auditioned for the role of Wanda Maximoff — a super-heroine who recurs throughout large portions of the Marvel universe — with the part ultimately being handed to Elizabeth Olsen in 2014.
Lohan’s interest in diversifying her acting credits comes amid somewhat of a resurgence for the actress, who recently inked a two-film picture deal with Netflix.
The Lohan-starring Irish Wish, one of the two Netflix titles and the follow-up to Falling For Christmas, will hit the streaming service in 2023. Elsewhere on the press run for the latter Christmas film, Lohan expressed interest in a Freaky Friday sequel, echoing similar comments made by her co-star in the 2003 film, Jamie Lee-Curtis. The actress last month revealed that she’d pitched an idea for a second instalment of the Disney movie, which would see Curtis and Lohan reprise their roles as a bickering mother-daughter duo.
