Taylor Lautner to Star in Parkour-Based Tracers
They will all reconvene later this year in the final installment of The Twilight Saga, but Robert Pattinson (Cosmopolis), Kristen Stewart (Snow White and the Huntsman) and Taylor Lautner (below) have been doing their own thing these days.
Lautner will be seen at the Cannes Film Festival this week in Tracers, a Parkour-based film that finds the actor starring as a bike messenger named Cam.
The character gets involved in an organized crime ring, along with Parkour, which is described by Wikipedia as "a physical discipline which focuses on efficient movement around obstacles."
It's what all those people are doing in those YouTube videos across your Facebook feed, bouncing off walls and railings.
Pattinson's Cosmopolis, meanwhile, will also be screened at Cannes. It's a major honor for both studs.
Sara Hicks and Taylor Lautner: Dinner Date Alert!
The rumor that started in late January is gaining momentum a few months later.
Following a date at Cirque du Soleil with ex-girlfriend Sara Hicks, Taylor Lautner was spotted again this week with his high school sweetheart, dining with Hicks in Los Angeles and trying to remain incognito via a black baseball cap.
But the twosome were spotted in Taylor's car shortly after their night out. See for yourself now!
Lautner and Hicks were just "hanging out, seeing a few shows and going to dinner" earlier this year, according to an Us Weekly insider, but chatter about rekindling their romance is growing strong now that they were seen again.
Over the last couple years, of course, Lautner has been linked with such famous cuties as Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez and Lily Collins.

Happy 20th Birthday, Taylor Lautner!
Taylor Lautner is not gay, but he is now 20 years old!
Indeed, The Twilight Saga stud muffin celebrates a birthday today, which comes at a perfect time: in between installments of his record-breaking franchise, Taylor can kick back, relax, maybe go on vacation.
Unlike co-stars Robert Pattinson (Bel Ami) and Kristen Stewart (Snow White and the Huntsman), Lautner has no movie scheduled to come out before the November release of Breaking Dawn Part 2. So you might not be seeing a lot of him over the next couple months.
Don't worry, though. While you come up with birthday wishes to pass along, we'll honor Taylor here with a photo montage. Get your fill of the hunk by clicking around now:

Hicks is now a Los Angeles Clippers cheerleader.
Lauter, who has been linked in the past to both Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez, split with Lily Collins in September.
Taylor Lautner Gay Magazine Cover Fools Celebrities, Revealed as a Hoax
For the record, Taylor Lautner is not gay. It would be absolutely acceptable and far from a big deal if he were, but it simply isn't the case.
However, for a few hours yesterday, many Internet users believed this Twilight Saga star had revealed an intimate detail on his life to People Magazine, due to the following fake cover, which leaked online:
Heck, music mogul Russell Simmons even Tweeted how he was "proud of Taylor Lautner for his bravery and his courage" after he saw the headline, later learning the whole thing was a hoax and adding:
"disappointed that people would joke about someone coming out about their sexuality. Let Taylor Lautner be whoever he wants to be..."
No word yet from Taylor's camp, though the magazine has come out and said the issue is "fake." So you may go ahead and continue to scream and dream over the actor, female members of Team Jacob. There remains the slimmest chance he might someday be yours.

Taylor Lautner on Breaking Dawn: Time to Man Up!
Sure, Edward Cullen gets married in Breaking Dawn. And Bella Swan gives birth.
But Taylor Lautner says this installment of the Twilight Saga highlights an especially interesting journey for his character of Jacob Black, telling our friends at Movie Fanatic that it was the most "challenging" film of the franchise to shoot.
"Jacob becomes a man in this one and he has to make a lot decisions," Lautner told Joel Amos. "He’s being torn between his two families. It was really tough."
Lautner gives credit to director Bill Condon for helping him navigate the often-shirtless waters.
"I trusted him completely, and it was really special," the actor says of his bond with Condon. "And now seeing the movie, I’m really happy Jacob starts here and he ends here, and it’s just very exciting to see him in a completely different light than ever before."
