Update -Taylor Lautner is no more attached to the project.

Paramount is planning the release of a movie adaptation of Max Steel, the toy line and animated series. And it’s been announced that Taylor Lautner (who plays as Jacob in the Twilight Saga) will have the lead role as Max Steel. The movie Max Steel will likely be released in 2011.

Plot:
“A 19-year-old extreme-sports athlete has been accidentally exposed to the unleashed power of nanotechological machines, which became part of him and gave him increased strength, near-invulnerability and the ability to change his appearance. The young man now fights the enemies of peace as a super-powered secret agent.”

Some may think that Paramount just want to profit from Taylor Lautner’s celebrity to reach a wide public. Well, that’s true. But should rather see the movie Max Steel as a new reward for Taylor Lautner following his impressive efforts to bulk up for New Moon! And there is no denying that Taylor Lautner is damn fit for the role of Mad Max!

Plot:
“T.J, a 13 year old boy and his Father, both devastated by the tragic loss of the Mother/Wife, are now living with the elderly Grandma. On his way to school one day, T.J has a chance encounter with Hesher, a late 20’s year old with a troubled past. Hesher assumes a role as both mentor and tormentor, leading T.J into troubles he could never have imagined. Nicole, a young grocery clerk trying to make ends meet steps in to protect T.J from a vicious attack, T.J becomes enamored with Nicole, only to have his fantasies destroyed by Hesher. Hesher moves into Grandma’s home, although uninvited, he is somehow accepted.”

I can definitely imagine Joseph Gordon-Levitt in this role: his performance is going to be outstanding, I’m sure of it! Hope that the movie Hesher will get a wide release so I can see it!

Plot
“A romantic comedy centered on Zoe (Jennifer Lopez), a woman who conceives twins through artificial insemination, only to meet Stan (Alex O’Loughlin), the man of her dreams, on the very same day.”

Why a woman as beautiful as Jennifer Lopez would use artificial insemination? I mean most men on Earth would be more than glad to marry her! Anyway, the Back-up Plan movie sounds like a sweet romantic comedy.
