Kind of a consolation prize, no? The Vicki Gotti part has to be much bigger, considering she's supposedly in on the production.
The same local news station had reported (a few days ago) that Lohan would NOT be involved with the movie because the producers and she could not come to terms (according to them, Lohan was asking for too much). If they are right I'd guess that Lohan thought twice about passing up something that will be in the news for awhile.
