"The 22-year-old hunk looks set to play Chris, the lover of Mya (Kristen), in the motion picture, which sees the San Fernando Valley pair ride off into the sunset with a bundle of cash after selling a fake snuff film, but Mya is forced to return from the dead to save her sister from a group of unsavoury characters," contactmusic.com quoted a source as saying.

Shooting is due to start later this summer and the movie is expected to release next year.
