Taylor lands huge leading role in Action Movie Max Steel

Nikke Finke confirms that Taylor has awesomely won the starring role in the upcoming movie Max Steel, an action movie based on a Mattel Character. These movies have been a pretty popular commodity lately (next to Twilight of course), so this movie (series???) has huge potential to skyrocket Taylor from WolfBoy to Leading Man. Looks like a lot of trust for a movie company to base around a 17 year old young man. They MUST be banking on his already built in fanbase with fangirls. Will we see a crossover hit between fangirls and fanboys? Will there be marriages, in which fanboys actually get girlfriends, take showers, stop playing video games and discover the wide world of dating? WILL THIS CHANGE GEEKDOM FOREVER? Let's hope so, cause those fanboys could use a shower.

Paramount has confirmed to me exclusively that it’s hired 8-pack-abs Taylor Lautner for the lead in Max Steel, instantly creating perhaps the next young big action star.
This is the Joe Roth-produced project based on the hugely successful Mattel property that’s an international bestseller. The movie will receive a major push planned as Mattel raises its stateside presence with the Paramount release. 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.

 I'm guessing the Abs of Steel didn't hurt Taylor's chances with winning this role either, but I"m hoping his acting skills in New Moon wowed some naysayers out there as well

Editors note-- I am a Star Wars superfan although not as much as Twilight. I say and speak of fanboys because I know them and I love them. This is not a Twihard vs Trekkie smackdown. It's a love hug between all of fan nerds out there, regardless of gender. Just have to poke fun sometimes. It will all be ok
