The Taylor Lautner movie machine keeps rolling. Hasbro, owners of successful toys-turned-live-action flicks like Transformers and G.I. Joe, are teaming up with Universal Studios to get Stretch Armstrong on the big screen and make some dough.

“In the past two years, Taylor has emerged as a real star at the global box office,” Universal Pictures co-chairman Donna Langley said.

“He brings the perfect balance of energy and athleticism to the role of an unlikely super hero with a fantastic super power. We couldn’t be more pleased that he has agreed to be our Stretch.”

Aiming for a summer 2012 release date, this movie could get crowded with other Lautner pics: Northern Lights, Cancun and Max Steel.  Are you ready for Taylor’s turn at super stardom with all these action flicks?

Taylor Lautner is confirmed as a presenter for The Golden Globes award ceremony. The Twilight star joins Josh Brolin, Alexander Skarsgard, Cher, Jodie Foster, Chace Crawford, Christina Aguilera, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Matthew Fox, Neil Patrick Harris and lots more for the broadcast on Sunday January 17th at 8pm on NBC.

Here is Taylor Lautner winning Breakout Movie Actor at The People’s Choice Awards in Los Angeles. Former girlfriend, Taylor Swift and her mom stood up and applauded Lautner as he took the stage to get his trophy.

Lautner is on a roll lately, not just with Twilight, but he has signed on for movies Max Steel, Cancun (maybe) with Taylor Swift and Northern Lights with Tom Cruise.

The Twilight Saga’s second film, New Moon, has been promoted as having more action and fighting than the first, giving it more appeal to guys. Actor Robert Pattinson feels it shouldn’t matter - a good storyline is something that both sexes should find watchable.

“I keep being told by people that I need to pump up all the stuff about the action and all this stuff for the guys to go and see it,” Pattinson says. “It’s ridiculous. It’s like saying guys can’t appreciate romance. I don’t think that you can say that about GONE WITH THE WIND or something. I’ve watched TITANIC and I didn’t think, ‘Oh, this is a girl’s film.’ Unless you’re a complete idiot of a guy, I don’t really think … and especially in NEW MOON and in the whole series I’ve never played it as if I’m playing a series of girl’s films, doing something just for girls.”

For the guys out there who have seen NM - what did you think? Did you go because you wanted to check it out?

Playing one of the most popular romantic leads in a movie, Pattinson is giving less interviews and being a bit more careful with what he says. This two part interview appears to be a compilation of quotes. Check it out here.

Actor Taylor Lautner confessed he did not like to see himself, as teenage werewolf Jacob Black, with long hair, which was obviously a wig and only got in his way when he tried to kiss Bella (Kristen Stewart).

“(The wig hair) would get caught in my mouth, and I would be spitting it out in this scene where I’m coming close to kissing Bella,” says Lautner. “It was annoying.”

We also think that wig is not flattering at all. Taylor is so gorgeous, it just stole his thunder, don’t you think? Taylor Lautner: Wig or wig out??

Showing off the incredible body he got from some serious hard work to keep his role as Jacob Black in The Twilight Saga movies, Taylor Lautner covers the December issue of Men’s Health Magazine. His transformation and keeping the pivotal role of the popular teen movie franchise is the kind of story Hollywood loves. As for Lautner, he’s already looking ahead to the next installments to be filmed:

“My character continues to grow, so I’d like to pack on at least a few more lean pounds,” he says.

Lautner has become the hottest teen actor around and everyone is talking about his body. Check out this issue when it hits newsstands.

MTV has premiered a ‘new’ clip of The Twilight Saga: New Moon during it’s Ulalume Festival special that aired this weekend. This isn’t really new - just an extended version of Bella’s birthday and her paper cut that unleashes Jasper’s thirst for human blood. Check out all the interviews and cast chat with Ashley Greene, Kellan Lutz, Jackson Rathbone, Elizabeth Reaser and Nikki Reed. Taylor Lautner, Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson do make a brief appearance at the end to intro the extended clip. I still think someone should create a youtube with all the clips and pics Summit has released - there would be no need to go to the theaters - it feels like the entire movie is online already.

Here are three new ‘New Moon’ posters featuring the main characters: Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) and Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart).

Here is another trailer for the Twilight Saga: New Moon. This time it is all about Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and the two ‘men’ in her life, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) and Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson).

The countdown has begun! ‘New Moon’ hits theaters on November 20, 2009!! The movie is going to be amazing and it will feature an amazing scene in which Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) transforms into a werewolf and attacks Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), while Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) desperately tries to get between the two and prevent them from possibly killing each other.

New footage of “New Moon” was just revealed on the Twilight iTunes page. In the short clip above, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has a dangerous and close encounter with the Wolf Pack - Alex Meraz, Chaske Spencer, Bronson Pelletier, and Kiowa Gordon – and discovers Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) is a werewolf too.

The theatrical release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon is still a month away yet from the amount of press Summit Entertainment is having the film leads do (Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart & Taylor Lautner,) you’d think it was only a week to go. That being said here is yet another interview with Robert Pattinson. Not too much new information from the guy - he’s still uncomfortable with the media frenzy that surrounds him and he’s relieved to not be in New Moon as much as he was in Twilight. He does however delve a bit into another project he has coming up with Hugh Jackman; Unbound Captives. The actor hung out with Jackman in Japan (both were promoting movies) and Pattinson said:

“We went karaoke singing,” he laughs. “We were singing Abba songs, it was pretty funny. It was sort of an Abba song sing-off, you know, last man standing.”

Who won? “I think he did, only because he can drink more than me and still sing in tune. He’s a cool guy and I’m really looking forward to that film.”

Captives sounds like a great departure for Rob. The film is a western set in the late 1800’s about a woman who has to search for her two kidnapped sons. It will also star Rachel Weisz and is currently slated to begin filming at the end of the year.

Pattinson’s other non-Twilight project, Remember Me with Emilie de Ravin and Pierce Brosnan is due out in February of 2010. In case you’ve forgotten, New Moon is due out November 20th.
