    Megan Fox

    Many have compared the rumored-to-be-pregnant actress's beauty to Liz Taylor's, and she probably does resemble her more than any other young starlet.

  3. Angelina Jolie

    Angelina Jolie

    Like Liz, Angelina is the most iconic beauty of her day … and like Angelina, Liz caused the Brangelina scandal of her day when her fourth husband Eddie Fisher left his wife Debbie Reynolds to be with her.

  4. Mila Kunis

    Mila Kunis

    Gorgeous 28-year-old Kunis is famous for her different-colored eyes … like Liz, who was known for her violet peepers.

  5. Marion Cotillard

    Marion Cotillard

    The smoldering French actress kinda resembles Liz … and she has an Oscar under her belt.

  6. Olivia Wilde

    Olivia Wilde

    Wilde is known for her cat-like eyes … and her coloring is not too far from Liz's.

  7. Michelle Williams

    Michelle Williams

    Call us crazy, but with a little hair dye, we could see a resemblance here … and look what a great job she did playing Marilyn Monroe.

Hold on a second ... Lindsay Lohan as Elizabeth Taylor? Believe it or not, it's confirmed. Lifetime television announced that the probation queen is going to play the legendary actress in "Liz & Dick," a TV movie based on the violet-eyed beauty's storied romance with actor Richard Burton.

"We are thrilled Lindsay will portray beloved Hollywood legend Elizabeth Taylor," said Rob Sharenow, executive vice president, programming, of Lifetime Networks. "She is one of the rare actresses who possesses the talent, beauty and intrigue to capture the spirit of such a provocative icon."

Lohan added, "I have always admired and had enormous respect for Elizabeth Taylor. She was not only an incredible actress but an amazing woman as well. I am very honored to have been asked to play this role."

Last year, Deadline.com reported that Martin Scorsese was eyeing Angelina Jolie to play Liz in another movie based on the Taylor-Burton love story. Seemed a fitting choice: Not only does Angie have the looks, Liz caused the Brangelina scandal of the day when her fourth husband Eddie Fisher left his wife Debbie Reynolds to be with her.

    Megan Fox doesn't have the skills...not sorry. Even with Lohan's problems, she's still the better actress. And real boobs helps too, lol!

    Megan Fox is the best choice - she looks the most like Liz.

    Lindsay has similar expressions and is a very beautiful girl...just a very beautiful messed up girl who hopefully has learned her lesson and will get her act together.

    My 2nd choice would be Meagan Fox.

    I really don't care who plays Elizabeth Taylor I have no plans on seeing it as the subject has absolutely no interest to me.
    But that said Lindsay Lohan had better be an angel on the set, show up on time, no drugs or booze and not screw this one up. She's running out of chances.

    I actually think Lindsay can be a talented actress when she isn't partying and being thrown in and out of jail. If she actually makes it to work, then I think she could do a decent portrayal.

    Lindsay Lohan is a horrid actress. Even considering her would be ridiculous. Same with Megan Fox.

    This film will be a huge flop.
