Poor Things delayed so Lindsay Lohan can get better?

nyol20105262207.jpgThe latest word is that the upcoming comedy movie Poor Things which Lindsay Lohan was expected to drop out of because of her upcoming 30 day rehab treatment will now instead be delayed by the film's producers until she can recover and star in the movie. From Variety...
"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'," MacLaine and Hickman said in a statement Thursday. "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."
Can you believe that? Yes it's good that people are trying to help Lohan because she is clearly a troubled girl and if she's not careful she is going to cause herself some permanent damage that she won't be able to recover from... not just in terms of her career but her health too. But really, is delaying your movie until she recovers the best thing to do? Who is to say that she will even be healthy in a month's time? Just re-cast the frikkin' role and hire Lohan for a future movie if you want to help her out and besides if Lohan is healthy then she will have no trouble attaching herself to other roles soon enough. I mean after all, she gets offered them all the time when she isn't well. source - cinematical
