Actor Taylor Lautner’s latest role will be a bit of a stretch. Actually, it will be a total stretch.

The “New Moon” 17-year-old recently signed a deal with Universal Pictures to play a live action version of the iconic toy Stretch Armstrong.

Universal Pictures co-chairman Donna Langley originally made a statement about the casting move to “Access Hollywood.”

“In the past two years, Taylor has emerged as a real star at the global box office,” Langley said. “He brings the perfect balance of energy and athleticism to the role of an unlikely super hero with a fantastic super power. We couldn’t be more pleased that he has agreed to be our Stretch.”
