Tara Reid has once again addressed rumours that she is in line to play Tiger King subject Carole Baskin in a movie adaptation of the Netflix series.
The Sharknado actress has been subject to speculation that she could play the Big Cat Rescue CEO, recently saying she was in "definite talks".
Speaking about the chatter, Reid said it would be "great" to portray Baskin while talking to The Morning Show.
"My manager first brought it up, and then it went viral all over the internet," she said. "They're still not casting yet – but I would love to play the role if they would cast me for sure – it would be great.
Reid added that Carole is "a totally different character" and "dynamic... which would be great to play".
The actress previously said it was "the kind of role for" her, adding: "We are in definite talks right now. So, let's see what happens.

However, Reid did express some fears, noting: "That also scares me if I do it... I don't really like tigers. That's a little scary. I loved doing Sharknado because [the sharks] were fake."
As well as a movie, an eight-episode scripted series based on Tiger King is coming to TV, with Nicolas Cage playing Joe Exotic.
