He's going to be everywhere next year when "Spider-Man 3" finally opens in May, but Topher Grace is looking to squeeze in a couple more films in before Spidey-mania hits.

The first is "Kids in America" in which Grace will play a recent college graduate who is chasing the girl of his dreams at a wild party. Jackie and Jeff Filgo, two of the writers behind Topher's hit TV sitcom "That '70s Show", co-wrote the script, with Michael Dowse ("It's All Gone Pete Tong"), who will direct.

 

Filming is due to begin next February in Phoenix, Arizona and once it wraps Grace is set to go straight onto "Coxblocker". Directed by Greg Coolidge, the film will see Topher playing a man who meets his ideal woman, only to find his approaches continually blocked by her ex-boyfriend / best friend (Seann William Scott), who is trying to find a way back into her good books.
