When rumors surfaced last year that 17-year-old Taylor Lautner would not appear in the Twilight sequel because he was too physically slight to portray a bookworm-turned-werewolf, a great shriek rose from Fangirl Island. “Noooooo!!” wrote one obsessive on a Twilight discussion board. “omg. Pleezze let Taylor come back,” implored another. Some were more militant: “If they don’t put him in . . . there will be a massive Twilight fan attack!”
The producers opted not to mess with their core constituency. While Twilight was ringing up $380 million at the box office and becoming one of the top pop-culture phenomena of the past year, Lautner was busy packing on 30 pounds of -muscle at the gym. His character, Jacob Black, the platonic best friend of heroine Bella Snow (played by Kristen Stewart), transforms in New Moon from a likable klutz into a member of a wolf pack. Likewise, the film gives Lautner a chance to bust out of more than his shirts, challenging co-star Robert Pattinson’s dominance of both the teen mags and the movie’s monster love-story narrative.

He really looks wolfy here,you know? Like in a good way. You can really tell he’s buff in this shot. Nice.
And also,WTF on the ‘Bella Snow’ bit? Wicked shame. They’re going to regret that later.
wow. Bella Snow. thats nice. lol
not to be mean, but Taylor is the worst actor ever. He’s a cutie I’ll give him/and you that, but man that boy needs to learn the basics. BUT I’ve only seen 3 of his things, so I wont judge him more then that till I see New Moon, which I hope is going to be AWESOME!
lol “Bella Snow” someone’s gonna be regretting that! I’m glad they kept Taylor no one else could be Jacob
wht bella snow
anyway i love taylor and i would be one of those girls who would be screaming if he wasn’t in the film
Taylor<3
lol u guys post funny comments and lol bella snow they must of read the books a lot.
That’s sad that you people would mass an Twilight fan attack over something that is beyond any of us to control, I like Taylor as Jake but what if they did get someone else, seems like a really stupid reason to attack people
I LOVE TAYLOR. nothing more to it then that. lmao hes such a great guy. and i feel for his character in the books but i feel hes the best to play jacob. im happy their keeping all the same ppl. i hate when the cast switches up. go taylor! lol (=>_<=)
he looks stunning in that pic…omg, so glad he got into new moon. i wud have cried my heart out. i sent a letter to Summit about it…well anyway, no one is a better jacob then he is. hes amazing.
How can they write about the book if they don’t even know the name of the characters! It’s Bella SWAN NOT Snow
