Taylor Lautner is Max Steel!

Taylor Lautner is looking to show off those martial arts skills of his even more.

The L.A. Times reports that the 17-year-old Twilight hunk’s name is floating around the might-be project of Max Steel.

Taylor would play Josh McGrath, a 19-year-old extreme-sports athlete who is accidentally exposed to the unleashed power of nanotechological machines, which become part of him and give him increased strength, near-invulnerability and the ability to change his appearance.

TELL JJJ: Do you think Taylor is meant to play Max Steel?

UPDATE: Nikki Finke reports that Taylor has nabbed the role. Congrats, Taylor!
