Taylor Lautner Joins The Cast of Fox’s SCREAM QUEENS
Remember when Taylor Lautner was the hottest thing Hollywood had seen and he was being groomed to be the next huge movie star? Well, that didn’t quite work out as planned, did it? After starring in a few films that completely bombed, he has now made his way to Ryan Murphy’s Fox TV series Scream Queens and you know what? It’s a perfect project for him.
He will be in Season 2, which is set in “a hospital where some of the most fascinating and bizarre medical cases are under observation.” Lautner will take on a lead role in the series opposite John Stamos. Lautner will play a doctor at the hospital named Cassidy Cascade, “who suffers from a strange medical condition and becomes a suspect when a series of tragic events plagues the institution.”
Jamie Lee Curtis, Emma Roberts, Lea Michele, Abigail Breslin, Keke Palmer, Glen Powell, and Niecy Nash are set to reprise their characters in the upcoming season, and Stamos will play Dr. Brock Holt, “the hospital’s brilliant but secretive head surgeon.”
This will be Lautner's first real TV series regular gig in the U.S. He recently co-stared in the BBC comedy Cuckoo.
