Get ready, Hollywood: Another Lohan is getting ready for her close-up.

Ali Lohan, Lindsay’s 14-year-old sister, has begun filming her first film project, Mostly Ghostly, in Los Angeles, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.

Ali’s role shares similarities with her older sister’s character in the 2004 film Mean Girls: She’ll play “a popular high school senior” in the film, says a source.

Ali told Teen Vogue in the April issue, “I grew up watching Lindsay. It made me want to do what she does. Just the whole vibe. Being there, being on camera, or onstage.”

The film, slated for release later this year, is based on the pre-teen book series Mostly Ghostly written by R.L. Stine, which centers on an 11-year-old boy who befriends two ghosts.

Ali, who has spent the past several weeks shooting her upcoming E! reality TV show with her mother Dina in New York City, Long Island and Las Vegas, is also recording a new album.

Ali Lohan is the 13-year-old sister of Lindsay Lohan. She is going to be troubled, it’s obvious. But she wrote an e-mail 24/Sizzler trying to clear the air about her family’s relationship with Michael Lohan, her father. Here it is (sort of boring):

Hi david this is ali lohan, i want everybody to know the truth out there. My mom is a single mom of four children she has always been there for us, she was my mother and father and still is. My father is telling all lies to people and saying he was such a great dad and was always there for us, my father was never there for us, My mom was always there souporting us. i think that the whole reason why my sister is upset with her self and not as cofident, is because of my dad not being around, and always staying out late and not coming home for days, he would come back home never himself, he was always was making excuses for his bad behavior . And would always blame my mother. He just wants everybody in the world knowing that he was a great dad. He wasnt that is all a lie. I just want my sister to stick throught this okay, and my mother and brothers and i are there for my sister 100% and have always been. I’ve wanted to say this for so long and get this out there and let everyone know that our family is like a normal family but of course we are put under a microscope because of lindsays fame, lindsay will be fine she is just going through a rough time right now but she will be fine. i know this for a fact. My sisters is just like a normal sister. her and I have so much in common. My mother and sister are huge insperations to me, they have made it through so much in there lives.

Thankyou for your time god bless, Ali

Boring! Tell us what we didn’t already know. You could totally tell that Michael Lohan was a douche bag father. Obvious! Plus this letter is shady. And I’ve never even heard of 24/Sizzler. Is that like, 24 hour fitness and The Sizzler mixed into a gossip website? Boring.
