Showbiz 411 reports that the project, Gotti: In The Shadow Of My Father has been indefinitely postponed now that production company Fiore Films has run out of funds. Al Pacino , Ben Foster and Kelly Preston had also been cast in the film. Click ahead for more Buzz Break.

Is Lindsay Lohan about to land a role that could reignite her career? Today, the actress posed for photographs at a New York City press conference for Gotti: Three Generations , an upcoming movie about the mob family. John Travolta and Joe Pesci will star in the film, with Nick Cassavetes directing. Lindsay has been rumored to be on board as a younger Victoria Gotti. The key word there is rumored. It’s not official, and even though she was on hand today, she refused to answer questions about her potential role. Will Lindsay Lohan bring Victoria Gotti to life on the big screen? A role in a big, prestigious movie like Gotti: Three Generations would give her career – DOA since her 2007 DUI – a boost. But producers may be hedging. When asked what appealed to her about the film, Fiore Films publicist Steve Honig dodged the question for Lohan, calling it premature to discuss her role. Lohan was recently fired from Inferno , the Linda Lovelace biopic, and there’s no way her ongoing legal problems and train wreck status weren’t to blame. Perhaps the Gotti shot-callers are waiting to see how her real life grueling legal saga plays out in court before officially inking her to a deal. Smart move. [Photos: Pacific Coast News]
