Lydia Hearst: I'm Not Playing Lindsay Lohan

Looks like Lydia Hearst-Shaw won't be playing Lindsay Lohan after all.

Though screenwriter Charles Casillo recently told New York Post's Page Six that Hearst-Shaw, 26, would play a Lohan-like "bratty movie goddess in and out of rehab," the model-heiress denies that she's attached to star in the comedy Dogs in Pocketbooks.

"Just so we are all clear, my hair is red because I am the new face of Schwarzkopf color," Heart-Shaw tweeted. "I am a model. I dyed my hair to front the campaign."

Lohan, who is currently a patient at the Betty Ford Center, has yet to comment on the rumored role.

"As for any theatrical roles I am currently filming Two Jacks directed by Bernard Rose. My next project is Catwalk by Tony Hickox," Hearst-Shaw added. "Thank you all for your messages of encouragement during my transition into acting. I truly love and appreciate it. At this time I am not officially signed onto any other projects. Thank you."

Producer of 'Lindsay Lohan' Movie Backpedals

The writer/producer of "Dogs in Pocketbooks" now insists his movie is NOT about Lindsay Lohan ... maybe because the Lohan's are making rumblings of a lawsuit.

Charles Casillo now tells TMZ ... reports that the movie -- about a starlet addicted to drugs and alcohol who goes in and out of rehab -- is based on Lindsay are "totally blown out of proportion."

Interesting comment, given what Casillo told Page 6 a few days ago: "[The movie] is in no way mean-spirited towards Lindsay. It's the kind of thing she has spoofed about herself in the past. It's more of a satire about the crazy people around her..."

As TMZ first reported, Lindsay's family is mulling over legal action. Lohan's lawyer Stephanie Ovadia says, "They are again using her likeness without her being compensated."

So now Casillo says the character is a composite of many young starlets, including Lindsay, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears -- mixed with some icons like Marilyn Monroe and Jean Harlow.

We love writers with good imaginations.

Lindsay Lohan ... The Movie Role of Her Life

Lindsay Lohan followers have clearly missed the boat ... her alcohol and cocaine-fueled hijinks, reckless driving, failed rehab attempts, career-ending partying and ruthless hangers-on are actually comedy gold ... at least according to the guy who's making a movie about her life.

Lydia Hearst will play LiLo in Charles Casillo's new movie, "Dogs in Pocketbooks." Casillo to the New York Post, "Lydia will play a bratty movie goddess in and out of rehab, in trouble with the law, and hounded by greedy agents, predatory paparazzi, off-the-wall stalkers and crazed media."

Casillo says the script is a satire ... the only glaring omission from the description -- scheming, sponging parents whose lives derail their child.
