Taylor Lautner + a ball + sand = the perfect sight for women’s eyes world over.

The Twilight heartthrob was playing a game of American football in Miami yesterday and from what we could see was doing a pretty good job. Jumps, lunges, tumbles, general athletic proficiency...

And it could be that very same reason why Taylor has been picked to play Stretch Armstrong in an upcoming flick about the superhero. A representative for Universal Pictures commented:

"In the past two years, Taylor has emerged as a real star at the global box office. He brings the perfect balance of energy and athleticism to the role of an unlikely superhero with a fantastic superpower. We couldn't be more pleased that he has agreed to be our Stretch."

The good news doesn’t end there either folks as the film is apparently going to be recorded in 3D which means it will appear that Taylor’s getting right up into your personal space...
