Taylor Lautner Optioned a New Yorker Story Whose Adaptation Gus Van Sant Will Direct
"The new project would almost certainly take Lautner's career in a new direction. He is said to be determined to work only with top directors and writers from now on as he strives to define himself as an actor." Annnnnd that's pretty much all I've got on this one. [THR]

Gee, I wonder what interest Gus Van Sant could have in Taylor Lautner?. Acting? No... it can't be acting. Personality? No... it can't be personality. What ever could it be?
Sigh.
I guess Keanu did get too old long ago. And Matt and Ben are so gray.
Really, Gus. This chicken-hawk thing is beneath you.
New Yorker story or New Yorker cartoon?
Lolz.
Maybe he should concentrate on, you know, learning to act. Instead of taking his shirt off, scrunching his brow and calling it "brooding"
Just a thought.
Mike FTW!
Oh snap!
I look forward to the Movieline post the week after the film's release, where Van Sant retires from directing - or, to quote his exact words: "You know what? I f*cking quit."
