Lindsay Lohan’s upcoming film “The Canyons” has been rejected by Sundance.
The producers of the campy indie flick are said to be flat out stunned that their movie has been rejected by the annual Park City, Utah film festival and they believe Lohan’s to blame, TMZ reports.
Sources told the gossip site that her appearance in the movie has been deemed a major “turn off” by Sundance folks.
Perhaps they read the epic New York Times Magazine article that chronicled the madness during filming of the Paul Schrader-directed movie. (Lohan told Page Six the piece was “bulls–t.”)
Or perhaps they saw the widely divisive preview clip in which Lohan’s character Tara is frantically searching for her phone, only to wake up her pornstar co-star James Deen, who then assaults her.
Undeterred,”The Canyons” producer Braxton Pope told TMZ that his agents are holding a screening for buyers at the end of the month and a number of big companies are interested.
Lohan has not commented on the snub, but Deen brushed off the Sundance rejection, (hilariously) saying, “It coincides with AVN (the adult video awards). Priorities man!!!!!”
