Lindsay Lohan is hoping to be part of Meryl Streep’s world.
Lohan revealed her “dream role” on Instagram Monday, calling out her former “A Prairie Home Companion” costar in a photo from the Disney classic, “The Little Mermaid.” The photo features Ariel next to Ursula the sea witch.
The 32-year-old actress then tagged Walt Disney Studios in the post, which garnered nearly 80,000 likes as of Tuesday afternoon – with many fans calling on the natural redhead to make it happen.

"Omg that's the dream," a user echoed.
Another chimed in, "100% support. This would be amazing!"

However, not everyone was on board with the idea.
“This is gonna be a no from me dog," one Instagram commenter quipped.

Someone else asked if Lohan was kidding, writing, "Is this a joke?"
Apparently this isn’t the first time Lohan has voiced her desire to be the next Ariel.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}According to Buzzfeed, Lohan wrote in a 2017 Instagram post that she’d be willing to take on the role – pending some stipulations.
"I will sing again, as #ariel #thelittlemermaid if Disney Studios will approve that #billcondon directs it along with my sister @alianamusic singing the theme song for the soundtrack," Lohan reportedly said.

The post was reportedly shortened to include a hashtag with the movie's name. It appears to have since been taken down.
Lohan's recent post about her new pick to play Ursula, however, still stands.
