Source: Taylor Lautner & Dwayne Johnson In Talks For ‘Goliath’

Taylor Lautner and Dwayne Johnson may soon face off on the big screen.

The actors are in “early talks” to appear in Relativity Media’s “Goliath,” a source close to the project told Access Hollywood on Thursday.

“The Twilight Saga” heartthrob would play the role of David, the shepherd boy-turned-giant-slaying future king in the Biblically-based film, while Johnson would throw his 6’5” frame behind the role of Goliath, the menacing warrior sent to destroy the Israelites.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, which was first to report the casting news, Scott Derrickson (“The Exorcism of Emily Rose”) is set to direct the project.

For Lautner fans who can’t wait for “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1’s” November 18 release, the 19-year-old heartthrob will soon be seen in the action thriller, “Abduction,” alongside Lily Collins, when the film hits theaters on September 23.

Johnson also has multiple projects in the pipeline – the “Fast Five” star recently wrapped production on “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island” with Josh Hutcherson and Vanessa Hudgens, and is currently filming, “G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation,” featuring Channing Tatum, Adrianne Palicki and Bruce Willis.

“G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation” is slated for release on June 29, 2012.

Putting the "Man" into VMan - Stubbly Taylor Lautner Magazine Shoot and Interview Preview Goodness :)

Via VMAN:

On being part of the Twilight world:

“It was really helpful that all of us were going through the same thing at the same time,” he said. “I think if we didn’t have that sort of relationship it would have been tough. It would have felt pretty lonely. Because when you’re filming for these ‘Breaking Dawn’ movies—we were filming for seven months—and if you’re there alone the whole time, even with the cast members, like on a day off, or on weekends, you’d go nuts.”

On getting to see the world:

“I hadn’t explored much besides Michigan and California,” he said of his pre-”Twilight” years. Obviously, that’s changed. But he also points out that promoting the films doesn’t leave much time for local exploring: “When I’m traveling the world promoting the films, I say I am on vacation, but its not really true, I guess—because when I go to a beautiful city I spend the whole time in a hotel room and then I’m back on a plane to the next place.”

But Taylor says the obsession isn’t really with the actors, but with the characters:

“It’s definitely these characters we’re playing. They are in love with Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, and Jacob Black. I mean, they feel like they know them. We’re just lucky enough to be playing them. But I definitely think it’s the characters.”

Taylor Lautner Attends A Who Dat Practice

Today Taylor hit up the Saints' practice in Oxnard, Ca.  Apparently he got to practice with them and is really, really good!  Chase Daniels, Drew Brees' back up, tweeted-

Taylor Lautner was at walk thru today and actually beat the QB's and Coach Payton in our daily Quarterback competition! #Lucky

Greg Bensel, VP of communication,  tweeted the photo above of Taylor beside Coach Payton.  Thanks, Greg!

Ugh! A man after my heart! For those of you who don't know, I love my New Orleans Saints!  I live in Mississippi, and am an hour and a half or so away from New Orleans.  Yes, I was a fan before they were good! If y'all only knew how many time I had to wear a brown paper bag over my head. -A little team history for ya!- I will be going to the Saints VS Houston game in a few weeks... Maybe he will be there!

New Abduction Clip - Taylor Lautner Gets A Lil' Action... with thighs that could crack walnuts O_o

TodoTwilightSaga - Clip de Abduction by TodoTwilightSaga

Now, I'm not necessarily one for action movies but this film just looks better and better! Plus, where's the downside in seeing Taylor actually being able to get his action on? I don't see one - especially with that nut-cracker move - dang!

Check out pics of Taylor at the Abduction premiere in Australia HERE :)
