Lindsay Lohan to star as Nancy Pitman in Manson Girls · 2008-03-28 19:24
Lindsay Lohan has signed on to star as Nancy Pitman in the movie Manson Girls.
The film's producer, Brad Wyman of Junction Films, confirmed the casting coup.
"Yes, I am doing it with Lindsay," he tells E!Online.
Pitman grew up in wealthy household in Malibu, and at 16 she was introduced to Manson by a friend, according to published reports. She fell under his spell, moving in with him and becoming one of his most ardent followers. She was home with Manson on the night he dispatched members of his "Family" to the former home of ex-business associate Terry Melcher, where they ended up brutally killing actress Sharon Tate and four others.
Pitman, aka Brenda McCann, later became involved with the Aryan Brotherhood and served 18 months in prison after being convicted of being an accessory after the fact to murder. She later married one of her coconspirators, divorced and moved to Oregon with her two children.
Attempts to reach Pitman were not immediately successful.
