Was Lindsay Lohan Almost Cast in Avengers

In a 2014 interview, Lindsay Lohan revealed that she was passed over for a role in the 2012 film The Avengers. She claimed that her manager did not push hard enough for the role she wanted. While it’s unclear what specific role she had in mind, the most logical assumption is Agent Maria Hill, who was introduced in the film’s opening scene and played by Cobie Smulders.

Lohan could potentially have been cast as Maria Hill, giving her a major boost in her career and a shot at stardom. However, she never made the comeback she attempted, and her career has been mostly dormant since the release of “The Avengers.”
