Taylor Lautner Joins Adam Sandler in GROWN UPS 2

Twilight's Taylor Lautner has apparently outgrown vampires and is now interested in comedies.  Enter Adam Sandler's first-ever sequel, Grown Ups 2.  Lautner is reportedly in negotiations to star opposite Sandler in a role that would allow him to go "toe-to-toe" with the veteran comedian.  Details are in short order at the moment, but reports specify this only as a "fun" role for Lautner, who is looking for another big movie to hang on to.
