Abduction; clips and TV spot for the action thriller starring Taylor Lautner & Lilly Collins...

In an interesting twist Taylor Lautner told Vman magazine that he is aware that that hysteria, major fandom, surrounding him and his Twilight characters, has more to do with the characters than the actors. Quote...

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

Now I’ll bet Lionsgate are hoping that he’s wrong, at least in part, as they will be hoping a fair number of the fans ~~his abs~~ his appearances in the Twilight saga have accrued, will follow him in other roles and give the film a decent opening in 3 weeks time.

The film certainly has decent support in Sigourney Weaver, Alfred Molina and Jason Issacs and, as you can see in the ‘stunts’ featurette, his action chops are definitely being talked up.

“Taylor Lautner stars as a young man unwittingly thrust into a deadly world of covert espionage in Lionsgates's action thriller, ABDUCTION, directed by John Singleton.

For as long as he can remember, Nathan Harper (Taylor Lautner) had had the uneasy feeling that he's living someone else's life. When stumbles upon the image of himself as a little boy on a missing persons website, all of Nathan's darkest fears come true; as he realises his parents are not his own and his life is a lie, carefully fabricated to hide something more mysterious and dangerous than he could have ever imagined.

Just as he begins to piece together his true identity, Nathan is targeted by a team of trained killers, forcing him on the run with the only person he can trust , his neighbour, Karen (Lilly Collins). Every second counts as Nathan ad Karen race to evade an army of assassins and federal operatives. But as his opponents close in, Nathan realises that the only way he'll survive - and solve the mystery of his elusive biological father - is to stop running and take matter into his own hands.”
