Taylor Lautner is in talks to join the cast of "Grown Ups 2" says THR
The original film starred Adam Sandler, Kevin James David Spade, Chris Rock and Rob Schneider as five friends who reunite over the 4th of July weekend to attend their youth basketball coach's funeral. Maya Rudolph and Salma Hayek also starred.
Lautner, who of course plays werewolf Jacob in the The Twilight film series, takes a “fun” role the film, in which he goes toe-to-toe with Sandler, according to sources.
Original helmer Dennis Dugan will return to call action again along with first film's scribe Fred Wolf doing the next screenplay.
Project X co-star Oliver Cooper will play a frat boy-type in the movie which will shoot later this year for a Summer 2013 release.
Sandler and Jack Giarraputo are producing the sequel.
Young Tween gals on team Jacob will most certainly see their guy in the laffer
The first Grown Ups was Sandler's highest-grossing film worldwide at $271 million despite a majority of negative reviews.
