Lautner Battles for 'New Moon'

Is Taylor Lautner trying to save his role of Jacob Black in the upcoming "Twilight" sequel, "New Moon"?



That's true! "Extra" caught up with the baby-faced actor at the Golden Globes Young Hollywood party last night, where he broke news about an upcoming meeting with "New Moon" director Christ Weitz. While Lautner expressed excitement about meeting with the director, he confirmed that none of the sequel cast is set.

Taylor also put co-star Ashley Greene on the spot, via "Extra's" celeb degrees! When Lautner asked the brunette beauty if she were on team Edward or team Jacob, Ashley said, "Right now I'm gonna be on Team Jacob because I'm really, really rooting that you stay and that you play Jacob in the second one."

"New Moon" creeps in to theatres in late 2009.


NEXT: Connolly Teases 'Entourage'

 

IF THEY DON’T LET TAYLOR STAY AS JACOB I WILL DEFINITELY BE EXTREMLY MAD AT SUMMIT ENTERTAINMENT AND THEY WILL LOSE ALOTE OF MONEY FROM THERE TAYKIR FANS!! THATS A FACT!!
TAYLOR IS PERFECT FOR THE ROLE, HE FITS ALL THE DESCRIPTIONS AND HE (IS) JACOB BLACK!!!!!!!! SO THEY CANT EXCHANGE HIM FOR MICHALE COPON!!???!!!

Taylor Lautner really stood out as Jacob in Twilight. He should play Jacob in all of the films. They can use camera angles and special effects to make him appear bigger like they do for Hagrid in the Harry Potter movies.

I also hope Ben Barnes gets to play Aro.

Taylor should totally stay! He’s soooo cute and he already played Jacob in Twilight so it’s like he has some kind of thing…

Taylor Lautner isn’t old enough to play Jacob??? HELLLLLOOOOOOOO????? Have they even read the books? Taylor Lautner is actually a year older than the character I believe…. it wouldn’t make sense to replace him and have someone in his late 20’s play Jacob - that’s ridiculous! Besides, fans have already identified with Taylor Lautner (did you hear the screaming? my ear drums are still ringing!).

It would be so dirty to get rid of Taylor. He is Jacob and no one would be able to replace him, and I don’t think I would want to go see the other movies if he wasn’t in them. Replacing Taylor would ruin the movie. My gosh he’s like what 16, give him some time, he’ll grow and it’s not like it would be much change in height if they use Steven Strait, who by the why doesn’t even look native american.

I am Team Edward,
but i have to say i will be very
very disappointed if they get rid
of Taylor Lautner.

here are some reasons why :

ONE :
It would spoil the rest of the
movies if they have someone
different play jacob - it would
just be really weird.

TWO :
He is gorgeous ! how can anyone
not see how gorgeous he is ?

THREE :
he is the perfect jacob.
& he is a very down to earth
guy.

Team Jacob! They should just keep him! It would be weird if they changed him all of a sudden. He already looks older then 16 and he is fioooooone. Bye.

KEEP TAYLOR! I agree 100% Without him it just would not be the same.

They should KEEP him for the sequels. Honestly changing the actor now will be the shittest thing ever. I think he did absolutly great in his bits of the movie and it truly seemed like him and Kristen were childhood friends and they had that innocent relationship there to build onto too. I can not imgine Jacob Black being played by anyone else, ever. I hope they decide to keep him.
