Oscar nominated director John Singleton has signed on to direct Twilight dreamboat Taylor Lautner in the thriller Abduction, according to Deadline Hollywood.

Lautner and his six-pack abs have their choice of roles these days, which is not a bad position for a young actor to be in. But with at least four projects in the works, it has been unclear which would happen first. With Singleton signing on to helm Abduction, it appears that mystery has been cleared up.

The script, by Shawn Christensen, was bought by Lionsgate in a bidding war in January. It tells the story of a young man who learns that he was kidnapped by his “parents” as a baby. His discovery opens up a rabbit hole of conspiracies that send him on the run.

Taylor will shoot Abduction before retuning to the role of Jacob the Werewolf for Breaking Dawn, the fourth Twilight film, scheduled to start shooting later this year.

Singleton was the youngest person ever nominated for a Best Director Oscar when he got the nod at 24 for his breakout film Boyz N the Hood. His most recent picture was 2005’s Four Brothers.
