Actor and beefcake Taylor Lautner has said he’d love to model his career after The Bourne Identity‘s Matt Damon. Tay, you’re on the right track! It all started with child roles in film’s like The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl. He was Sharkboy! But we all know it was the Twilight Saga and especially winning the role of the beefed up Jacob Black in New Moon, that launched Lautner into A-list status.

Lautner’s bod isn’t the only thing gaining some serious muscle. These days, his resume keeps getting fuller and fuller. His dramatic thriller Abduction will premier September 23, 2011 with Twilight Saga: Eclipse following it to hit on November of 2011 (get the latest Twi-news now).

Now Deadline.com reports Lautner will star in the big screen adaptation of Incarceron. He’s even likely to produce!

Over at GoodReads.com they describe the novel this way:

Incarceron — a futuristic prison, sealed from view, where the descendants of the original prisoners live in a dark world torn by rivalry and savagery. It is a terrifying mix of high technology — a living building which pervades the novel as an ever-watchful, ever-vengeful character, and a typical medieval torture chamber — chains, great halls, dungeons. A young prisoner, Finn, has haunting visions of an earlier life, and cannot believe he was born here and has always been here. In the outer world, Claudia, daughter of the Warden of Incarceron, is trapped in her own form of prison — a futuristic world constructed beautifully to look like a past era, an imminent marriage she dreads. She knows nothing of Incarceron, except that it exists. But there comes a moment when Finn, inside Incarceron, and Claudia, outside, simultaneously find a device — a crystal key, through which they can talk to each other. And so the plan for Finn’s escape is born.
