USA Today has an article about upcoming werewolf movies and New Moon was mentioned. Chris Weitz said some things about Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black! Check out the article here.
“Director Chris Weitz (The Golden Compass) picks up where Twilight’s Catherine Hardwicke left off on the production that starts shooting March 23. One of his first tasks on the sequel was deciding to keep Lautner, whose gangly Native American high-schooler in the first film transforms into a hulking giant over the course of the book series as he fulfills his tribe’s destiny.
“Taylor is a formidable guy, kind of a great tool in the toolbox,” Weitz says of the nearly 17-year-old actor who has been working out daily and has packed on 29 pounds, most of it muscle. “In the first movie, we did not see or recognize how dangerous a character he could be.”
As for Taylor himself, “he can kill me with his left pinky. But he is too nice to do that. There is something compelling and sexy about him. He captures the spirit of Jacob.”
he will do a great job!
first comment. again.
ANY CHALLENGERS?
did Chris just SAY that Jake IS SEXY?! woha! that’s even more gay than “Thriller”!
omg taylor lautner is absolutely ahdorable!!
he is going to do a great job in New Moon!
lol
thats…uhh….wow
Jake IS sexy though
I love how he calls him a tool and then says that he captures the spirt of Jacob! I think that Taylor will do a great job and I am glad that Chris kept him around
I would scream if they didnt pick Taylor! I mean, I love Jasper best, but Taylor is one of the sexiest things I’ve ever seen!
I did like this in that article…”Where Bella is concerned, he adds, “Edward represents the unattainable perfection of first love. Jacob is friendship.”
TEAM EDWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!
He’s going to be great! i can’t wait for New Moon!
I love how Chris said that Jacob has this compelling sexuality about him because he does… It burns through the screen whenever he talks or acts .. I can’t wait for him to acurately depict Jacob.
he’s so perfect for the role…
Jake is Hot *Slap Slap* Edwards Sexy …… So is Jacob *Slap Slap* Yeah Jasper’s the Sexiest!!!!!! ……. Owwww My Cheeks Hurt…..
Chris Weitz thinks Taylor is hot……? Okay, creepy.
Taylor’s going to feel awkward around Chris from now on.
Judging from the comments I’ve read by Chris Weitz, he is totally Team Edward. Soooo hopefully, he’ll make Edward’s part longer and Jake’s shorter in NM.
Hey could i apply for Renesmee in the Peacekeepers family? Please?
TAYLOR IS SO SEXY !
hes a PERFECT jacob
cant wait 4 new moon
Taylor is a great Jacob! Does anyone know the exact date of the UK release of New Moon? Can’t wait!!!!
Yea! Can’t wait to see taylor play our beloved jacob get to see him beat up on some vamps in the eclispe too
. Our new director seems pretty cool I like his attidude and he gives off a very peaceful spirit I am excited to see his great talents use for our movie. Good luck mr chris I have faith that you will give us a movie we will be proud of!
“There is something compelling and sexy about him” ok that kinda freaked me out, but anyway….
I really can’t w8 4 New Moon! I am Team Edward and Love Robert Pattinson to death though, I still love Taylor and I love how he is so devoted to this that he’s working out so hard lol, I know it’ll pay off.
Hope Chris Weitz will do the book Justice, not like Twilight (cuz lets face it, there were way too many forgotten favorites, not enough romance, and it was way too rushed) but Chris I hope you’ll do great!!!
You have my support,
Melissa
bahahahahaha… okay he’s calling him sexy?
littleeee weird. haha.
But, i must agree with him. Taylor perfected sexiness.
along with rob… and kellan…. and cam.
haha. okay, they got a team together and
perfected it. officially, taylor=sexy
GO TAYLOR! He is super hot and sexy…but I’m still team Edward!
29 POUNDS IN MUSCLE!That is totally hot! I can’t wait 2 c him in New Moon.Oh if u go 2 urbandictionary.com and look up twilight they r saying the most RIDICULOUS things about Twilight! IT GOT ME REALLY PISSED!
OME GUESS WHAT! This is random but, Tyler Hoechlin was in 2nd place for Edward. I love Rob soooo much better! TEAM EDWARD!
cant wait for the shirtless scenes… *sigh
Did Chris really just call Taylor compelling and SEXY??? o.O Hahaha. Funny…
TAYLOR LAUTNER IS THE SEXYEST MAN ALIVE………
I DONT NO HOW ROBERT GOT IT……………..
I am still impressed with 29 lbs of muscle, but I wonder how they are going to make him like 7ft tall! You here Alice? Jasper?
ohh he can wear disco shoes…
lol
they will make it work!
LOL….I guess they could do platforms and some digital inhancing!
hahaha yeaaa
they will make it work!!!!
because taylor is so sexy that they would have to!! lol
Yeah….he can just wear platforms…lol….
But I say again, a fifty year old man saying a sixteen year old boy is “compelling and sexy” is creepy and awkward….and I am kinda grossed out, lol…
how do u do digital inching?
They can do anything with computers and digitalization nowadays
that is very true
it better not ruin his 8 pack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and his pythons!!!
his WHAT?!
his 8 pack… thats what makes him sexy
The sexy comment was funny. Taylor has always been gorgeous no matter how much he tries to change his appearance:)
pythons has in……
BICEPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sexy? Hell Yeah!
OMG! i’m totally creeped out. Did Chris actually really call Taylor sexy? I just can’t imagine!!! Anyhow, now that Taylor has bulked up, they won’t be needing extra hand in the grafix digi anymore (except maybe his ht?)
Team Jacob – all the way!
“Yeah, I miss you too. A lot. Doesn’t change anything. Sorry.” Eclipse
sexy indeed.
mmm.

Ok Seriously People Jane has pale brown colored hair look in New Moon page 456 Exact Quote “At first I thought it was a young boy. The newcomer was as tiny as Alice, with lank, PALE BROWN hair trimmed short.” Should I continue??? ….. ” The body under the cloak-which was darker, almost black-was slim and androgynous. But the face was too pretty for a boy. The wide-eyed, full lipped face would make a botticelli angel look like a gargoyle.” HaHa See her hair isn’t black or blonde or any other color!
uhh, weird much? he’s kinda oldish and taylor is 16. eww.
but it is the truth. taylor is beyond sexy.
it’s just a whole movie FULL of sexy guys. (:
