Taylor Lautner next up in ‘Abduction’

Taylor Daniel Lautner (born February 11, 1992) is an American actor, voice actor, model, and martial artist. As a child, Lautner took up martial arts and was ranked number one in his category by the American Sports Karate Association. Lautner soon thereafter began his acting career, appearing in bit roles in comedy series such as The Bernie Mac Show (2003) and My Wife and Kids (2004), before having voice roles in television series like What's New, Scooby-Doo? (2005) and Danny Phantom (2005). In 2005, he appeared in the film, Cheaper by the Dozen 2, and starred in The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D.

Lautner got his big break when he was cast as Jacob Black in The Twilight Saga film series, beginning with the first film, Twilight (2008). Lautner returned for the following two movies, The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010), and is set to appear in the last two films for the series, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn. Lautner has been nominated for several awards for his work in the Twilight series, including honors at the MTV Movie Awards, People's Choice Awards, and Scream Awards.
The late 2000s saw Lautner become a teen idol and rise as a sex symbol, after extensively changing his physique to keep the role of Jacob Black in further Twilight installments, and thereafter generating media attention for his good looks. In 2010, he was ranked second on Glamour's "The 50 Sexiest Men of 2010" list, and fourth on People's "Most Amazing Bodies" list, among other honors. As of 2010, Lautner was considered the highest-paid teenage actor in Hollywood.
Taylor Lautner fans may love him best as Jacob Black in the ‘Twilight’ movies but he will next be seen in ‘Abduction’ which comes out in September 2011, a couple of months before the highly anticipated ‘Breaking Dawn’. Lautner stars in ‘Abduction’ with Lily Collins, his rumored girlfriend and daughter of Phil Collins. The other stars of the movie are Alfred Molina, Maria Bello and Sigourney Weaver.

The premise of ‘Abduction’ is a thriller centered on a young man who sets out to uncover the truth about his life after finding his baby photo on a missing persons website. The movie is directed by John Singleton and so promises to be pretty action packed.
Let’s hope that Taylor Lautner can prove his acting capabilities and keep the fans love in ‘Abduction’.
