ET has the scoop.
Taking another page out of history, it looks like LINDSAY LOHAN has signed on to play one of CHARLES MANSON's devoted followers in 'Manson Girls,' her rep tells ET.
Lindsay will portray NANCY PITMAN, a young girl from a wealthy Malibu family who fell under Manson's spell. She was not one the "Family" members involved in the clan's infamous murder spree, but Pitman was later imprisoned after she became involved with the Aryan Brotherhood and was convicted of being an accessory (after the fact) to murder.
It's the second project the young star has taken on in which she plays a character who stands by a notorious historical figure. In 'Chapter 27,' out in limited release this weekend, she stars opposite JARED LETO, who portrays JOHN LENNON assassin MARK DAVID CHAPMAN.
