Actress Plans On Making Writing & Directing Debut With The FilmWhile she's only been in handful of Hollywood films to date, it's undeniable that Teresa Palmer is an actress bound for big things. Still in the early bloom of her career, Palmer's presence hasn't gone unnoticed by studio types. Last month she starred in "I Am Number Four" while last summer she appeared in "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" and this weekend finds her taking a totally different sort of role in the comedy "Take Me Home Tonight." She auditioned for "The Amazing Spider-Man" and she was circling George Miller's "Mad Max: Fury Road" until production delays on that film killed her potential involvement And while enticing projects continue to cross her desk, Palmer is ready to take her career by the reins, with big plans to write and direct.

Based on a novel co-authored by shamed memoirist James Frey, "I Am Number Four" is a sci-fi take on the same sort of material that has made 'Twilight' an international sensation. Instead of sparkly vampires, though, it's a handsome, hounded alien played by Alex Pettyfer that takes center stage. And while it succeeds in some respects, particularly in the fact that it has a sense of humor and some jaunty action set pieces, it all too often falls into the same draggy aimlessness that largely defines the 'Twilight' franchise.
