Sometimes when your fame and celebrity are waning or you've become mired in so much scandal, the next best thing to do is emulate a star of a bygone era and trade on their successful and iconic status.
Lindsay Lohan is the perfect example, as she stars as 'Elizabeth Taylor' in the new Lifetime TV movie about the legendary Hollywood actress.
Will this retelling of Liz Taylor and Richard Burton's notorious fiery love affair be the former Disney child star's big comeback?
There are certainly similarities between the two actresses as the landscape billboard creative suggests with its copy.
She's not the only one looking to cash in on famous people from the past either, look for more portrayals in the months to come, like Sienna Miller as Alfred Hitchcock's muse 'Tippi Hedren', Jane Fonda as former first lady 'Nancy Reagan', Daniel Day-Lewis as 'President Abraham Lincoln' and Naomi Watts playing 'Princess Diana'.
This super-sized billboard for Liz & Dick was photographed towering over L.A.'s Sunset Strip on October 3, whilst the standard landscape ad was snapped along Sunset Plaza on September 22, 2012.
If you're fan of the iconic Cleopatra and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof movie starlet, be sure to also check out this Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Healthcare Foundation tribute billboard for her wonderful work as an ambassador and activist for the charity.
