Call it Tailor Made. Literally. Summit Entertainment is developing an kidnap/action script set in Cancun, written by Eric Champnella and Grant Thompson, for Twilight star Taylor Lautner. The film will be produced by Dan Lautner who is, yes you’re correct, Taylor’s pops.

This is the first film for Lautner’s Tailor Made Entertainment, a company formed specifically for vehicles for young Taylor.

Here’s the plot of the film, via Variety:

After an injury sidelines a teen’s plans to be an elite soldier, he tries to get on with his life by heading to college. There, he meets a girl who convinces him to join her friends on a spring break trip to Cancun. When his traveling partners are kidnapped and ransomed for the freedom of a drug cartel leader about to be extradited, the college student uses his warrior skills to rescue them.

“Warrior skills”? Really? Warrior skills. Words do not exist to describe the manufactured hogwash this little synopsis spews out with every passing sentence.

Apparently, it stems from Lautner’s affinity for Taken. Makes sense at least. The film hopes to begin production in June.

What do you think of this film idea? Can it work with Lautner attached?
