EXCLUSIVE! Lindsay Lohan Is 100% Down To Do The Life-Size Sequel With Tyra Banks!

Get hyped, Life-Size fans!

As we previously reported, the Life-Size sequel is now a go as Freeform has officially given the project a green light. While we knew Tyra Banks was on board for the reboot of the Disney-helmed movie, it's been unclear on whether or not Lindsay Lohan was eager to be involved.

Well, thanks to our sources close to the situation, we've EXCLUSIVELY learned that LiLo is 100% down to be in the flick. YASSSSSS!

Now since the movie is only in the early stages of production, as it's slated to be released in December 2018, we're not sure how big Miz Lohan's role will be in the film. Also, we don't want to get too carried away until contracts are signed and EVERYTHING is official.

But we should probably mention that Banks DID refer to Lohan by her Life-Size character on Twitter, so we're pretty freakin' giddy!

We mean, we can't be the only ones who are pumped to learn that Eve and Casey will be reuniting in our lifetime, right?? HA!

Is Lindsay Lohan ready to shine bright and shine far once more??

As we previously reported, Life-Size 2 got the green-light from Freeform 17 years after the original Disney movie hit the small screen. While Tyra Banks has been linked to the sequel since pretty much day one, it's been unclear if her redheaded costar is bound for the reboot.

However, the America's Got Talent host gave fans hope on Tuesday thanks to one Twitter exchange with LiLo. Specifically, the America's Next Top Model creator referred to Miz Lohan by her Life-Size character's name AND pinned the post to the top of her page (below).

America's Got Talent Auditionee Files Lawsuit Alleging Tyra Banks 'Physically Manipulated & Verbally Abused' Her Young Daughter

UPDATE, 5/25/2017 7:15 p.m. EST: The producers of AGT have released a statement announcing the dismissal of the lawsuit, saying:

"The Doe v. Marathon matter is rightfully being dismissed. We take great care of all acts that cross the AGT stage and their families. Tyra has been an incredible addition to AGT with her vibrant energy and maternal nurturing spirit, and we look forward to continuing to watch her positive influence on the show."

Sounds like they have Tyra's back!

Well this is troubling.

In an 18-page lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, an America's Got Talent auditionee is coming after Marathon production company claiming that her young daughter was "physically manipulated and verbally abused" by Tyra Banks!

According to the docs, Jane Doe alleges to have been "publicly humiliated" by AGT judges and members of the audience during her and her husband's March 19 performance of a song about motherhood and her daughter, identified as Mary.

The adult plaintiff says that aside from being embarrassed in front of the cameras, producers got her daughter (who is a minor) to sign release forms without her consent.

The suit goes on to allege that Tyra got physical with Mary, even "pulling her hair back":

Whoa! Michelle Rodriguez Threatens To Quit Fast & Furious Over Treatment Of Female Characters!

Seems like Michelle Rodriguez is a little furious over how the female characters of a certain big budget franchise have been treated lately -- and if they don't fix it, they may lose her fast.

In an Instagram post, the actress -- who has appeared in five of the eight films, including the first -- turned a (possibly contractually obligated) promo for the digital release of The Fate Of The Furious into more of an ultimatum.
