A surprising face may be popping up in the MCU. Actress Lindsay Lohan has suggested that she’d be up to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though she didn’t name any roles she would want in particular.

Lohan has been a controversial figure in the public sphere. Though she was a highly successful child actress in the late ’90s and began to transition into adult roles in the early ’00s, starring in films such as Freaky Friday, Mean Girls, and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, her battle with addiction and run-ins with the law made her a notorious figure and negatively impacted her career for years. Though she’s recently been getting back on track with her new film Falling for Christmas, and there’s always been talk about a Mean Girls sequel, Lohan has not quite gotten back in the good graces of the public.

In an interview with Forbes, Lohan indicated that she would want to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. “I think I’m always the kind of person that I see what comes and take it as it comes, wherever the scripts lead me. I love doing ‘rom coms’ so that’s always something that I’m going to look for and do a ton of when the time is right, but there’s definitely other – I’ve never done an action film,” she said when discussing what kinds of roles she takes. “I would love to do something with Marvel – just seeing what comes my way and I’m open to different roles.”

Lohan is mostly known for comedic roles. This wouldn’t preclude her from the MCU, however. For instance, She-Hulk was a heavily comedic entry into the MCU, complete with fourth wall breaks. The MCU has room for pretty much any type of actor, and Lohan could definitely be one of them.

However, that doesn’t mean it will necessarily be an easy road to fighting alongside the Avengers. Lohan would probably be a controversial casting for a new character. While she has the talent to back up her fame, she has garnered quite a reputation in the media and the public, therefore, is more familiar with Lohan’s controversies than with her acting career.

But Lohan can likely make a comeback if she plays her cards right. At the end of the day, MCU fans would embrace her if she put her all into the role. After all, Robert Downey Jr. had faced trouble for decades before his casting as Iron Man. However, once he took on the role his past misbehavior was forgotten, and Downy became the face of the Marvel Cinematic Universe for nearly a decade.
