Lindsay Lohan announces new podcast featuring guests ‘across all industries’

Lindsay Lohan’s comeback continues, with the Mean Girls actress inking a new deal months after her upcoming Netflix film was announced.

After announcing a return to acting earlier this year, Lindsay Lohan has now revealed she will get behind the mic to host her first podcast.

On the yet-to-be-titled interview podcast, Lohan will share “her authentic voice and a never-before-seen side,” content studio Studio71 teased.

According to the company, the show is on track to premiere in late 2021 or early 2022.

“I’m excited to partner with Studio71 in the development and production of my podcast,” Lohan said in a statement.

“I’m looking forward to connecting with more of my fans and having intimate conversations with friends and thought leaders across all industries.”

It comes a few months after fans of the Mean Girls icon learnt she will star in an upcoming Netflix holiday rom-com movie.

After shunning her acting career for a number of years, the streaming service confirmed in May that the former Masked Singer judge, 34, has been cast as a lead in an untitled holiday romantic comedy.

By the sounds of it, it’s right up her alley.

The plot follows a newly engaged, spoiled hotel heiress (Lohan) who suffers amnesia after a skiing accident and finds herself in the care of a handsome lodge owner and his daughter in the days leading up to Christmas.

Janeen Damian (Hallmark Channel’s A Christmas Waltz) will direct, and it was written by Damian, Michael Damian, Jeff Bonnett and Ron Oliver.

Production company MPCA is behind the film, which also produced Netflix holiday classics such as the A Christmas Prince franchise, Operation Christmas Drop and the forthcoming A Castle for Christmas.

Lohan has shunned acting in recent years, so it’s exciting news for fans.

Production starts in November, so, sadly, it won’t be for 2021 holiday viewing, but hopefully a gift for the following year.

It comes after Lohan told CNN’s New Year’s Eve special hosts Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen in 2019 that she wanted to “come back to America and start filming again … taking back the life that I worked so hard for, and sharing it with my family and you guys”.

It’s been a long time coming for the star, whose acting career took a nosedive amid her many scandals of the mid-2000s.

Lohan’s last major project was fronting the MTV reality series Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club which aired one season in 2018-19.

It was reportedly cancelled for “not being juicy enough,” according to Variety.
