NEW YORK (AP) -- Lindsay Lohan's campaign for a career comeback will take another step when her new film, "Liz & Dick," airs next month.

Lifetime network says the film will premiere on the network on Nov. 25.

Find: See Lohan as Elizabeth Taylor

Lohan plays screen diva Elizabeth Taylor in this story of her quarter-century love affair with celebrated leading man Richard Burton, whom Taylor married and divorced twice. They met on the set of the film "Cleopatra," with Taylor in the title role.

Grant Bowler, whose credits include the TV series "True Blood" and "Lost," plays Burton.

Lohan, 26, has been plagued by legal problems and substance abuse issues in recent years. During filming of "Liz & Dick," she crashed her Porsche into a dump truck. A week later she was treated by paramedics for what her rep called exhaustion and dehydration.
