Lindsay Lohan's upcoming TV series will be a major step for her as it will mark the rare occasion that she won't have a romantic interest.
A month ago, it was reported that the Freakier Friday star is attached to star in a Hulu series that is currently in development titled Count My Lies. It will be her first starring role in a scripted TV show.
What Does Lindsay Lohan Think of Having No Romantic Interest in Count My Lies?
In an interview with Chloe Fineman on Elle, Lohan opened up about the development of Count My Lies and her experience on the Hulu project so far.
"I love the book. But when I was reading it, I had to put it down for a day because I was like, ‘I’m stressed now.’ But I liked that. It’s going to be nice to do something different," she said.
Lohan also highlighted that it will mark the first time that she will not have any romantic interest to which she found to be refreshing.
"I was talking to the writers and showrunners yesterday and told them, ‘I don’t know if you realize, but this is the first time where I don’t have to have a romantic interest, where I don’t have to kiss someone at the end of the movie.’ Which is so refreshing—to not have to be that girl for once," she revealed.
When discussing what type of project she's been pursuing, Lohan replied with "dark comedy."
She added, "That kind of meaty, good, funny movie—a smart comedy. Not a rom-com, just a straightforward funny movie. I’m excited to be doing this drama. I’d love to work with some dream directors."
What is Count My Lies TV Series About?
Count My Lies centers on compulsive liar Sloane Caraway, who bluffs her way into a job as a nanny for a gorgeous and charismatic couple, Violet and Jay Lockhart.
The logline teases, "It seems she’s finally landed her dream job. But little does Sloane know, she’s just entered a household brimming with secrets that are about to explode — with potentially catastrophic consequences for all."
The series is based on a novel by Sophie Stava. Lohan is attached to play the role of Violet Lockhart. Former This Is Us showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger are spearheading the project.
