'Twilight's' Kellan Lutz: 'I don't want to play high school'

Kellan Lutz is the man of the moment. His "Nightmare on Elm Street" reboot lands in theaters this month, and he's wrapped production on the upcoming movies "Warrior" and "Meskada." He was recently cast as Poisedon, God of the Sea, in the upcoming "War of the Gods."

And, in case it somehow slipped your mind, he'll return in the third "Twilight" installment, "Eclipse," this June.

"I'm a normal person. And I have four paparazzi who sit outside my house all day," Lutz tells Interview Magazine. Though he's happy to say he's normal, he is also "unapologetic about wanting to be an action star."

He's excited that people have started to tell him he can't play high school anymore. "I'm 25, and some people see that as getting up there. I'm like, 'Thank God.' I want to be the Jason Bourne type. I don't want to play high school."

That's not to say he's going to be picky about his auditions. He was happy to do Hilary Duff's "With Love" video. "There's a quote, I think it's Wayne Gretzky, that says you miss 100 percent of the shots you never take. That's so true. That's why I love going out for any audition."
