Taylor Lautner Bulks Up For New Moon
Last week Stephenie Meyer announced on her website that Taylor Lautner would reprise his role as Jacob Black in the sequel to Twilight. It seems that a lot of people were kind of stunned by this news, mainly because in New Moon Jacob grows a foot and looks for like a 25 year old, rather than a 16 year old. I will admit that I was a little stunned at that announcement myself. But I think I can see Taylor being Jacob now. Taylor has packed on 26 pounds of muscle already. His goal is to gain 29 pounds before the shooting for the film starts later this year.
Taylor says he has been working hard for eight months and is in the gym every single day for at least two hours and is eating a very lean diet. Of course all the working out in the world will not make him almost 7 feet tall. But I’m sure some movie magic can happen to help portray that aspect of his character. I mean there are not that many 7 foot tall Native American’s walking around so they will just have to make do will Taylor.
In other Twilight news. The Twilight DVD will be released on March 21, 2009.
He looks great. Like most other athletic teenage guys. Hopefully this will calm down some of the fans!
