20 May – Taylor Lautner is set to join the cast of the upcoming Netflix comedy movie, "Home Team".

The actor, most known to fans as Jacob in the "Twlight" franchise, will be starring alongside Kevin James, Rob Schneider, Jackie Sandler and Gary Valentine among others in the upcoming movie to be co-produced by Kevin James' Hey Eddie Productions and Adam Sandler's Happy Madison.

The upcoming movie will be loosely inspired by New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton's experiences during his year-long suspension from the NFL league, and stars James as the said coach.



It will revolve around Payton's relationship with his estranged 12 year-old son, as he tries to coach the boy's Pop Warner football team.

The upcoming project will be co-directed by Charles and Daniel Kinnane.

This would be the second time that Lautner stars in an Adam Sandler production, following Netflix's "The Ridiculous 6".
