Jackson Rathbone, the bad-boy actor who plays Jasper from the "Twilight"
franchise, plans to film a dark, offbeat feature flick called "Girlfriend" in Boston
this September.
According to MTV News, the feature is a "harsh, modern-day take on the 'Beauty
and the Beast' fable" set in Middle America that thrusts Rathbone into a bizarre
love triangle.
Rathbone reportedly met writer/director Justin Lerner during the Sundance Film
Festival in January where they decided to produce the flick together. The duo are
gearing for a four-week shoot in Boston in September, working around the
"Twilight" actor's commitment on the third edition of the Stephenie Meyer
franchise called "Eclipse."
Scouts are currently casting the flick's other roles--including Rathbone's female
love interest.
