Taylor Lautner has never been more excited than he is right now. These are the actor’s exact words, as expressed to our friends at Movie Fanatic, when asked about the September 23 opening of Abduction , Lautner’s first feature role since Twilight . “This movie was very different than anything I’d done before,” Taylor said. “It was challenging. I knew it would challenge me and that’s why I was attracted to do it. But it was a lot of fun. Breaking Dawn right after that was even more challenging.

‘Lion King’ 3-D Begins New Circle Of Life At Box Office

Steven Soderbergh’s ‘Contagion’ follows at #2, with Ryan Gosling vehicle ‘Drive’ at #3. By Ryan J. Downey “Lion King 3-D” Photo: Disney What’s old was new again as Disney’s iconic “The Lion King” became the #1 movie at the box office over the weekend, taking in an estimated $29.3 million with a souped-up 3-D redo of the 1994 original. “Drive,” one of the year’s best-reviewed films, was #3 in its weekend debut, while the poorly reviewed remake of “Straw Dogs” and Sarah Jessica Parker’s even-worse-reviewed “I Don’t Know How She Does It” both flopped in their debuts. Last week’s #1 movie, “Contagion,” dropped to #2 this week. “The Lion King” 3-D re-release earned more than the other three new releases combined. The film’s original-run IMAX re-release (back in 2002) and the past weekend’s numbers pushed “The Lion King” from #25 to #17 on the all-time domestic box-office chart, according to Box Office Mojo . The animated tale, which has also quite successfully been adapted for Broadway, has made $357.8 million in the United States to date. Steven Soderbergh’s ensemble procedural drama “Contagion” made $14.5 million in its second weekend of release, for a total of $44.2 million. “Drive” took in $11 million, but while the film has set Twitter abuzz in critic circles, it remains to be seen how it will continue to play with a broader audience. “This is one of Ryan Gosling’s best performances,” Aisle Seat reported. “The Help” came in at #4 at the box office, adding $6.4 million for a total of $147.3 million. The remake of director Sam Peckinpah’s 1971 thriller “Straw Dogs,” featuring “True Blood” star Alexander Skarsg

Taylor Lautner on his Steamy Love Scene and 7 More Revelations from the Abduction Junket

Look, people (that means you too, Twilight Moms): Taylor Lautner is all grown up now, legal and everything at 19 years of age. He’s got his first non- Twilight starring role coming up in John Singleton’s Abduction , which is also his first young adult bid for action supremacy. So even though he’s arguably the most legitimately nice young actor of his generation — seriously, this kid’s poised like a pro — he’s growing up on-screen faster than teen mom Bella Swan. And you know what that means? Steamy love scenes!

Taylor Lautner Is ‘Proud’ Of New ‘Breaking Dawn’ Trailer

While out promoting new flick ‘Abduction,’ the ‘Twilight’ star had a chance to admire the latest trailer. By Kara Warner Taylor Lautner Photo: Getty Images Generally speaking, Friday is the collective favorite day of the week. For “Twilight” fans, however, Tuesday probably took the cake this week, as September 13 marked the debut of the second official trailer for “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1.” To celebrate the occasion, we picked our top five favorite “Breaking Dawn” trailer moments and then consulted our trusted panel of “Twilight” experts for their esteemed opinions. Then we did one better: we managed to snag the opinion of Taylor Lautner at the Hollywood premiere of his new action thriller, “Abduction,” on Thursday night. “I definitely saw it. I didn’t see the reaction to it, but I’ve been really busy,” he said, sounding slightly apologetic that he hadn’t yet been able to scour the Internets for fan responses. “I’m so proud of it. I think the trailer is great. The movie is amazing, and I cannot wait for everyone to see it.” Lautner also told us recently that he’s done something very few people can say they have: He’s seen “Breaking Dawn – Part 1.” “I’ve seen it a few times,” he said. “I saw it for the first time while we were still filming, so it was a really rough cut, but I’ve seen several versions since then, and it’s getting better and better.” Lautner warned fans to brace themselves for an emotional roller coaster. “You are going to face a lot of emotions, definitely,” he teased. “You are going to be angry. I guarantee you [that] you will cry multiple times. There’s a good mix. It’s definitely different than any of the ones before.” Check out everything we’ve got on “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1.” For young Hollywood news, fashion and “Twilight” updates around the clock, visit HollywoodCrush.MTV.com .

Taylor Lautner, Lily Collins Faced ‘Abduction’ Challenges Head On

Between kissing and action scenes, Lautner says, ‘One’s a little easier than the other.’ By Kara Warner Taylor Lautner at the “Abduction” premiere Photo: Jeff Kravitz/Film Magic HOLLYWOOD — MTV News has been hot on the case of Taylor Lautner ‘s big action thriller, “Abduction,” ever since it was announced. As such, in recent months, we’ve chatted with Lautner and co-star Lily Collins about everything from the film’s complex and stylized action to its sweet, believable romance, to the actors’ action-star influences and intense prep work. Naturally, much ado has been made of the steamy kisses Lautner and Collins share, as well as how much action and stunt work they do in the film, so on Thursday night, when MTV News headed out to the star-studded premiere, where Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez were among the VIP attendees, we asked the leading man and lady to compare and contrast the challenges involved in filming action scenes vs. kissing scenes. “Ooof. Two different kinds of action, right?” Lautner said with a smile. “We’ve got both of them in this movie, that’s for sure. One’s a little easier than the other,” he said, hinting at the kissing scene. “Well, the action scenes, we shot the majority of them in the middle of the night so those were kind of difficult because we were tired,” Collins said. “The kissing scene, everyone was laughing all around us, everyone was making it really fun, but at the same time trying not to laugh in the middle of it, so that was kind of difficult.” “There was a lot of laughing,” Lautner agreed. “We’re good friends, so it was all easy.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Abduction.” For young Hollywood news, fashion and “Twilight” updates around the clock, visit HollywoodCrush.MTV.com .
