Lindsay Lohan is reportedly unhappy with the male actors who are in the running for Richard Burton in the upcoming Elizabeth Taylor biopic.
Those who auditioned to play the role include Gossip Girl star Matthew Settle, Sean Maguire, and CSI cast member Craig Robert Young.
After watching tapes of their tryouts, a production insider reveals:
"Lindsay declared that none of the actors were the right fit and that she wanted to go to London to look for a possible Burton actor there. Lindsay is being an absolute nightmare about who should play Burton. She believes Matthew Settle is too old to play the role, and she wants a major A-list star to be her co-star. However, her salary for the role took up a major portion of the budget, and the Burton gig will likely only pay $200k, max. The producers don't need to get Lindsay's approval of who will play Richard Burton, but they want to keep her happy."
Filming is set to begin in a few weeks, and it's been "hard to conduct any rehearsals" without the role of Richard Burton filled.
