Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine has given her full support to Lindsay
Lohan, assuring the troubled actress she will still have a job on new
movie Poor Things when she completes her stint in rehab.
The Mean Girls star was due to start filming with the veteran actress,
along with Rosario Dawson and Olympia Dukakis for the new project, which
will be co-produced by MacLaine and Rob Hickman.
But Lohan checked herself into the Promises rehab facility in Malibu,
California on Monday (28May07) - after she was arrested for driving under
the influence at the weekend(26May07) - throwing the filming schedule into
doubt.
And despite the 20-year-old's highly-publicized personal battles,
MacLaine and Hickman have vowed to stand by her as she completes a
month-long treatment program in rehab.
The producers released a statement yesterday (30May07), saying,
"In the spirit of helping Lindsay Lohan and her rehabilitation, we
have been asked by Lindsay to comply with her wishes to continue working
on 'Poor Things'.
"We are trying to rearrange the shooting schedule to facilitate
her working at the end of the shoot to coincide with the completion of her
rehabilitation.
We wish her love and the blending of mind, body and spirit."
