Lindsay Lohan has yet to sign her contract to play the late Dame Elizabeth Taylor in a new movie.

The 'Mean Girls' actress is set to play the star - who died of congestive heart failure last year - in a forthcoming film for the Lifetime channel, and despite shooting due to start in just a few weeks in Canada she has not yet officially signed on.

A source told RadarOnline.com: 'Lindsay is planning on signing the contract this week if all proceeds as scheduled. Lindsay is excited at the prospect of being back on set again. The major parts of the contract are in place and all that is needed now is signatures of Lindsay and the producers of the project.'

Recently it was claimed producers behind the movie were concerned about her ability to tell the truth after conflicting reports of an alleged altercation with Marisa Dugas at the Chateau Marmont hotel.

Lindsay claims she was not at the hotel on April 5, but the woman, Marisa Dugas, has filed a police report accusing her of battery. Two further reports have been given, claiming Lindsay - who was released from probation last month - was present at the party.

A source said producers 'are extremely concerned about Lindsay's hard partying ways. Here are the facts, since she was formally taken off formal probation, she has been at the Chateau Marmont several times.

'She was definitely at the nightclub when the assault allegedly took place.

'However, Lindsay told the producers that she wasn't there, so even if she isn't charged with a crime, her inability to tell the truth is hurting her, period.'
