Taylor Lautner confirmed for 'Max Steel'


Summit Entertainment

Yesterday, it was speculation, but today it's official.

The next project you'll be seeing The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and Valentine's Day star Taylor Lautner is will be Max Steel.

Says Nikki Finke at Deadline,

I'm told Max Steel will be a four-quadrant popcorn movie in the spirit of Iron Man about a 19-year-old extreme sports junkie recruited by a secret agency after an accident infects his body, leaving him with superhuman powers.

The L.A. Times reported earlier that Lautner's role in the film would be "Josh McGrath, a 19-year-old extreme-sports athlete who is accidentally exposed to the unleashed power of nanotechological machines, which become part of him."

Looking forward to it?
