Given Lindsay Lohan’s history of crack shenanigans, it seems utterly asinine that she would still be allowed to have a career. But over the past few days, it seems like there’s been a spate of new rumors revolving around Linnocent auditioning for various roles. First, there was the rumor that she auditioned for the Lois Lane part in the new Superman reboot, which ended up going to Amy Adams. And now Radar is reporting that Linnocent is still up for a part in the film – perhaps as a villain? This is all according to Linnocent’s crack friends, though. None of it is coming from legit studio sources, all of whom are probably horrified:

Amy Adams might have edged out Lindsay Lohan to nab the coveted role as Lois Lane in the Superman reboot, but the troubled actress’ hopes haven’t been completely dashed. RadarOnline.com has learned Lohan, 24, will read for a role in the movie in front of producers sometime in the near future.

“Lindsay plans to return from New York on Wednesday and meet with producers and read with an actor who is up for the role of Lex Luther,” a source close to the actress told RadarOnline.com.

The film’s powerbrokers remain interested in casting her in a role as a villain, RadarOnline.com has been told. Lohan had wanted the role of Superman’s love-interest Lois Lane, but is said to be excited with the news that producers are still considering her for another gig in the much anticipated film, despite all her issues.

“Lindsay said she would be ecstatic to be part of the Superman movie… it’s a dream of hers,” close pal Nathan Folks told RadarOnline.com when asked about the potential casting.

He wouldn’t reveal more details. But here’s the sticking point: the cast is set to start shooting in Vancouver in late August and the Mean Girls star could have other commitments, such as jail!

“If Lindsay is found guilty of grand theft, she would inevitably be serving jail time which almost certainly would coincide with the production schedule,” one source close to the film said.

Another role that is close to being filled is that of Lex Luther, the power-mad archenemy of Superman. RadarOnline.com has learned fledgling actor Adam Harris, who bears a striking resemblance to Luther, is in the mix and has auditioned multiple times for producers. Harris is scheduled to join Lohan for the read, suggesting the pair could be teamed together as villians.

Those who’ve already signed of the latest installment, tentatively called Superman: Man of Steel, include 27-year-old Henry Cavill as the lead Clark Kent/Superman and Kevin Costner and Diane Lane, who will star as Clark’s Earth parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent. The film is being directed by Zack Snyder.

Yeah… she’s not getting a part in Superman. I can just feel it. But I do wonder why the studio hasn’t called Linnocent out on her crack lies yet – perhaps they’re just waiting to see if it blows over. Or perhaps legit Hollywood is now pursuing a new strategy with Linnocent: first, let her crack hustle go on uninterrupted, getting more and more press, and then some studio spokesperson will come out and say something nasty about her, thus adding some good press to the story, because everybody hates Linnocent. Of course, there’s another option too. One of Linnocent’s johns is a producer on the film, and that’s how she’s auditioning. Ugh.

There’s also another casting rumor – apparently photographer Tyler Shields is going to “directing” a film about Charles Manson called Eyes of a Dreamer, and Shields wants Linnocent to play Sharon Tate, the actress who was married to Roman Polanski and murdered (while pregnant) by Manson’s people. Shields and Linnocent have worked together before – he photographed her promotional images in costume as Linda Lovelace, and he also did a few other porny photo shoots with her. Like these:
