UPDATE JAN 9: TAYLOR IS BACK FOR NEW MOON!

According to Ryan Seacrest on his syndicated radio talk show, actor Taylor Lautner, who played the character Jacob in November’s hit “Twilight” and was expected to reprise the role in the saga’s later installments, will not return in the second film, “New Moon.”

Summit Entertainment, the studio behind the “Twilight” franchise, allegedly paid leading man Robert Pattinson too much money to keep him for the next three films and could not afford the rest of the cast, Seacrest said.

“Twilight” director Catherine Hardwicke was confirmed to not be returning for “New Moon” last week because she could not commit to the release schedule Summit wanted for the film.

In “New Moon,” Jacob (who Lautner played in “Twilight) plays the leading man role in the absence of Edward (Pattinson) — the love interest of main character, Bella.

Since its release on November 21, “Twilight” has grossed over $140 million, nearly quadrupling its $37 million budget.

    It’s not because of the money….. It’s because jacob needs to grow to about 7 ft tall…. a different actor is required to make that look even believeable…

    I’m sure Robert Pattinson would be “running around naked” if he had been offered SOOOOOOO much money that the rest of the cast had been – cast out….

    It goes without saying that Taylor Lautner MUST be Jacob! Where is Stephanie Meyer in all this? She needs to protect the integrity of her creation. Catherine Hardwicke is the perfect director for this: nothing in the book compares to the moment Bella enters Bio class in the film… Edward — repulsed — winged like an angel (flanked by a stuffed owl), Bella — self-conscious — her hair billows against the fan. The danger of sexuality, the grace of Desire. Beautiful. I dreamed that Hardwicke would continue to work through the ideas she introduces. It was like My So-Called Life with Godfather ambitions. In that tradition, I had hopes Part II would be better. Only one person could have gotten those performances from those actors (while d.p. Elliot Davis got the perfect look) — and now only these actors can retain that approach! This is a real shame. Oh well, here’s praying Kathryn Bigelow or Sturla Gunnarsson or Neil Jordan or Patrice Chereau (!!!omg!1) will be hired to take over “New Moon”. But something tells me they’re not looking for artists (Chris Weitz?????? YUCK!!). Anyone who directs “New Moon” should do screenings of “The Story of Adele H.”, “Godfather Part II” & “III”, and “The Company of Wolves” for inspiration and instruction.

    The movie has made 170million world wide at this point. HOw in the hell do they not have enough money to pay for Taylor? How many bad movies did summit make that they needed Twilight to pay for?

    If they weren’t going to use Taylor, then they should NOT have put him out there for the Hot Topic tour. Taylor has a dedicated fan base with Twilight that Summit had no problem cashing in on to promote the movie and now they complain that he’s too expensive? come on.

    The wolf boys growing to be 6’5 could easily be ditched. What is important is making sure the wolves look convincing.

    well, it depends. they absolutely HAVE to keep taylor for the beginning half cuz he’s sposed to be the same jacob when bella turns to him once edward leaves. HOWEVER, once the three day absence period passes and jacob’s a 6’5 werewolf, then they should replace taylor with a taller look a like (hoping for steven strait cuz he’s so sexy!!!). I do reely lik taylor tho, but i’m hoping he expected this too. i mean a 10 inch growth spurt and bulging muscles wasnt gonna be happening anytime soon.

    and jesus, how much money is summit payin rob to be in 1/5 of the damn movie? im hoping they’re paying the same amount to kristen also.

    What the hell are they doing?! How can they fire Taylor?!! He is way important to new moon and you can’t just replace him. If you’re keeping everyone else then it wouldn’t be right firing taylor. If its because he has a baby face he’s still growing plus he doesn’t age he just grows taller, and he’s tall enough! Plus summit has changed some things or skipped alot so why so they have to make the tallness important. I just think it is very important for taylor to stay.

    I Like Taylor, and they should keep him for the first part of the movie. But once Jacob turns into a warewolf they do need a new actor. Hopefully they get Steven Strait and get him to bulk up.

    Look, I liked Taylor in Twilight, but in New Moon he is supposed to emerge as a potential love interest for Bella. 16 year old Taylor has not refined his sexuality on screen to do this (as of yet). Whereas, as a 22 year-old man, Rob has. Do you really think Jacob Black (as played by Taylor) can compete? This is not to say that Taylor is not attractive; he is. It’s just he does not yet have the sexuality (or chemistry with Stewart) that Jacob will develope later on in New Moon. The competition for Bella has to look believable. I suggest they use Taylor until he morphs into a werewolf. Then, upon the transformation, they use another, older actor. This way, the “boyishness” of Jacob is preserved before his transformation, but the masculinity and sexuality that Jacob later exerts is also satisfied.

    Remember: as much of text this is about sexual restraint there is the underlining theme–that both, if not all characters, have sex on their minds. All need to look it.

    omg. that is soooo stupid! Taylor Lautner is one of my favorite people in the movie. it would be so stupid to get rid of him because he was sooo good as Jacob and that would be stupid to change actors right now. i really think that they should keep him as Jacob Black 🙂
    i hate Jacob in the book but in the movie they make him look so cute! 🙂 haha… well i still don’t think anybody can replace Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black.

    and come on, how much money are they paying Rob to be in 1/5 of the movie?

    Alright Micheal Copon, is ugly and does not fit the role of Jacob Black. AT ALL. Replacing Taylor Lautner was the dumbest move, in the history of dumbest moves!
    And stupid greedy Rob Pattinson.
    Why should he get paid more than everyone else?!
    I honestly don’t even think he looks the part, to play Edward.
    If I had the chance to star in Twilight, I most certainly would do it for free. The experience and seeing myself on the big screen would be enough to make me happy.
    I’m so disappointed.
    This is all screwed up!
    My life is officially ruined.

    This fanbase is so stupid sometimes. So what if the character grows to seven feet tall in the books. That’s like so not important compared to continuity. Him not growing is not going to ~ruin~ the whole series. Dumb asses. But changing actors will look ridiculous!

    And who cares. Jacob is only a sweaty, gross, mouthraping loser that causes EB trouble. Who cares who plays him. Does it really matter. They should just keep who they have.

    And they better cut back all that stupid werewolf and Jacob crap in the middle. It was so BORING! It doesn’t get good until Edward returns!!

    And Steven Strait is WHITE, morons. He’s also WAY too good-looking to be Jacob. Jacob is never described as handsome, EVER, and Bella is NEVER once physically attracted to him. I swear the twilight fanbase is completely illiterate. They make stuff up, rather than read what’s on the page.

    If you really think about it they have to replace Taylor, because his face is too young looking and he’s not muscular or quiet tall enough for the part in New Moon. I mean it says he matures very quickly, unless Taylor can mature very quickly then he’s not good for the roll. All this stuff about not having enough money to keep him is hollywood drama people, do you really think it’s about the money after the Twilight film did so well? I personally don’t think that it has anything to do with not having enough money to keep him, it just wouldn’t make sense for a “mature, tall, muscular and strong” werewolf to look that young, be that short, and that “whimpy” looking. Don’t get me wrong, Taylor is a cutie, but in order for New Moon to be a great success the werewolves have to look as real as the Vampires.

    HOLY POOOP!!!!!!! What the poop is Summit doing?!?!?!?!?!!?! They’re RUINING the Twilight saga!!! First of all, Taylor is AWESOME for the part of Jacob. Second of all, you can’t just change a character that’s already been introduced. And while we’re on the subject…TAYLOR HAS THE PERFECT MUSCLES AND SERIOUS FACE TO PLAY JACOB!!! Everyone knows that Kristen and Rob are returning ’cause well why wouldn’t they??? But why not have Taylor (call me) return??? He’s a great actor who deserves this role. And who cares about the fact that he’s not seven feet tall??? Did any one SEE the actor that played Sam Uley??? He was like 5’9” which is not tall AT ALL for the werewolf status he was at. Not saying that Sam wasn’t a good Sam but at that moment in the series he was already a werewolf and not as tall as he should’ve been. And to the director of New Moon (which should be Catherine) THE VOLTERRA SCENE SHOULD BE EXACTLY LIKE IT WAS IN THE BOOK!!! Please. 😀

    Okay.

    Now i am so freaking pissed that they even though of replacing Taylor Lautner. Are you kidding me. No one can ever replace him and it will totally loose like half the fans if they change one of the main characters.

    No one will ever have that perfect white teeth, perfect tanned skin, perfect smile. OMG i just love Taylor Lautner. WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY GONNA FIND A PACK OF NATIVE AMERICAN WEAR WOLVES. Before firing him they have to think.

    Also let syay they do find someone else [ Steven Straight]. How the hell is he gonna play the baby face Jacob in the beginning of the book.

    TAYLOR TAYLOR TAYLOR TAYLOR. NO OTHER DAMN WAY. ITS HAS TO BE TAYLOR. I DONT CARE IF HE’S SOO DAMN HOt. NO ONE CAN EVER REPLACE TAYLOR.

    Oh yeah and the only reason girls wanna watch New Moon is for Taylor Lautner. You ant just go and hire someone in acting, and then fire then for the sequel. He did NOTHING at all.

    If this turn out to re true and Taylor is replace, i will seriously kill Summit Entertainment people, and never watch New Moon.

    I think that it would be stupid to take Taylor out of the movie. I think that they can use the work of the computer to make him fit the characteritics of the book. Just like the director of that movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button how they made Brad Pitt look old then gradually get younger. And plus Taylor is so cute.

    Yes Taylor is so fine they can’t replace him. Because all the fans are going to watch New Moon just to see him. And they can’t say I want to see Edward cause he leaves like in the begining. So if i was u I would keep Tylor if you want to keep on making money off the movies.

    This kind of sucks because I thought Taylor was the best teen actor in the film. I do believe he works great for Twilight and early New Moon Jacob, but this changing-into-a-beefed-up-werewolf thing would have been a challenge for any actor. It makes me sad because I finally warmed up to him.

    And whats up with this release date? Of course I want my movie early, but c’mon, this movie is gonna be shit if they cut the release date so short (less than a year?!) Kudos to Catherine Hardwicke for bailing before she made a COMPLETE mockery of my favorite book in the series. For a second I almost thought that the series would get better…Why does Hollywood have to ruin everything!

    if they can make Hagrid look like a giant in Harry Potter,
    & they can make BRAD PITT look like a wrinkly, short, old man in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,
    then im sure they can make Taylor a little bit taller and bulkier.
    It’s not that hard.
    You can’t just replace an important character like that in the 2nd movie, after the 1st movie was such a success.

    This is ridiculous. If his look/height is the problem, why did they even cast him in the first place? Were they not confident that they would be making “New Moon”? Anyways, that’s besides the point. If they can make ‘realistic’ looking warewolves, they should be able to transform Taylor’s look so that he takes on the characteristics of Jacob just as easily. It’s not very hard to make people look older and taller on camera.

  40. Karl

    Well, I think that’s just dumb.
    They didn’t follow alot of important stuff in Twilight either. Like, the scene where Bella and Edward first kiss, or when Edward takes her to the meadow. And what’s up with the werewolf clan? That doesn’t even compare to what they really looked like. So, a little height difference–big whoop. That’s minor to this whole thing.

    It’s not difficult to make someone look older and taller–bulkier and more matured on camera.

    ARE THEY EFFIN SERIOUS?! THEY CANT REPLACE HIM! if they are so worried that the height difference really matters then they can just use some special effect thingy to make people look taller or something. and they shouldnt even have to use some stupid techy effect thing it doesnt effin matter. i REFUSE to see new moon if he is not in it and i will perposly break my bracelet that says team jacob! summit being just plain retarded about this!!!!

    Taylor OUT? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I’m gonna say this:

    OI! Taylor Lautner is PERFECT for the role of Jacob Black. Steven Strait? Yeah, he may be hot, but him as Jacob? I don’t think it’s right just to change Jacob’s looks from Taylor to Steven. The books didn’t say that Jacob will change his LOOKS to an entirely different person. He’ll just look bigger and GROW TALL. It is still okay if Taylor’s not gonna grow a few feet taller. It’s not like the Twilight scenes were exactly like what Stephenie M described in the book. So, there’s nothing wrong with Taylor not being 7ft right? Yeah, he’s a growing boy, he’ll grow a few inches. You can’t expect him to grow from 5″9 to 7″ right away. He was EXCITED about filming New Moon. And now he’s OUT? He couldn’t wait for it, and now he’s crushed just like that?

    SHEESH give the guy a break! Even I who’s on Team Edward (Woo! ;D) say that Taylor’s Jacob.

    Taylor Daniel Lautner IS Jacob Black.

    Heheh, I was just frustrated when I heard he’s probably not gonna be in New Moon. Come on. Seriously, guys, he WAS excited about not wearing a wig in New Moon. Summit’s just so heartless. Sheesh.

    ♥ taylor always.

    New Moon will certainly SUCK without Taylor. New Moon is all about Jacob. So, why don’t let the spotlight be on Taylor for once? It’s not like you don’t know who Bella’s gonna choose. Why didn’t they think before Twilight? Why change the actor NOW? There must be a reason. They can’t just say “Okay, let Taylor be in Twilight for a few sec. Then change to another actor for the next movie. It’s not like anyone would notice.”
    Most people WANT Taylor to be Jacob. It’s not like people are saying “WE REFUSE TO WATCH TWILIGHT IF JACOB’S BEING ACTED BY SOME TAYLOR DUDE”
    Instead, people say “WE REFUSE TO WATCH NEW MOON IF JACOB’S not TAYLOR LAUTNER!”

    Just let the cast be the exact ones from Twilight. Don’t fire anyone, unless the actor is the one who quits.

    Taylor’s trying to keep his job, can’t you see? “Lautner’s agent has been reaching out to the ­imaging company behind The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (where Brad Pitt plays a man who ages backward) in an attempt to demonstrate to Summit Entertainment how Lautner could be digitally bulked-up.”, for God’s sake. HE STILL WANTS TO KEEP HIS JACOB ROLE.

    DONT CHANGE JACOB TO SOME OTHER ACTOR. IT WOULD SUCK. DONT JUST IGNORE OUR COMPLAINTS.

    WE are the ones who watch your films. WE wouldn’t go to the cinemas back to back just to watch Twilight to reach the freakin amount just so New Moon would be filmed if we KNEW TAYLOR’S NOT GONNA BE IN IT.

    I think this is the best option. As a 25 yr old fan of twilight, the older women can’t connect with Taylor Lautner because he is well…JAIL BAIT! I think in order for the movie to connect with a wider range of viewers, then an adult needs to be cast in the role. I fell in love with Edward in Twilight, the readers are supposed to fall in love with Jacob in New Moon, and the older viewers just can’t because well…it is ILLEGAL haha!

    For whoever said Jacob isn’t once described as good looking, and that Bella’s never attracted to him: I don’t like to be blatantly rude (although you deserve it), but telling other people they are illiterate is funny when your the one who missed quite an integral part of this drama. She clearly states in the book not only in her head, but acknowledges it out loud TO jacob that hes beautiful. She even says “your kind of beautiful ya know?”. And if you’ve read teh fourth book, then you definitely know she feels a connection to him…maybe you should go back and read a little more carefully…not that this is the most difficult piece of literature.

    Anyways, I always wanted Steven Strait for the part, he could have looked younger at the beginning, and then hes definitely got the capability to beef up for the latter half of the movie. If they do change him, only Steven could be cast as him. And it doesn’t matter that he’s white, Nikki Reed isn’t exactly a natural blond, ya know what I mean?

    It has been brought to my attention, that Summit Entertainment and/or those responsible in casting the film New Moon, are considering others for the part of Jacob black instead of keeping Taylor Lautner in that role. That, in my opinion, and the opinion of MANY, MANY others, is absolutely absurd, and we do not take the news well.

    As, by now, I am sure you are well aware, the beautifully written Twilight Series, has a very loyal following and fan base, so, those loyalties definitely carry over for the actors that we have now, thanks to the Twilight film, come to associate with our favorite characters that we all fell in love with, courtesy of the brilliant Stephenie Meyer. So, changing the cast up now would not only be unfair to those that are going to be replaced, but also an insult to the fans, and it could possibly ruin the whole entrancing effect that the movies could have had. We won’t be able to be as immersed in the fantasy world on screen, as we are in the books, and that would be a huge mistake.

    More importantly, however, Taylor Lautner has said in several interviews how much he enjoys this part, has cited having read the series (which to us hardcore “Twilighters” means the world), and has reportedly been working extremely hard in the gym to be what they at Summit need him to be. That saddens me. Wrap your mind around this for a moment will you? How would you like to be given a job, one that you love dearly, one that you did well at, everyone agreed you were the best for, one that you worked extremely hard to keep, but then, you were told “Oh I’m sorry, you just don’t have the right LOOK for this position”, and suddenly, you didn’t have that job anymore. Doesn’t seem fair does it?
    Now, before you go thinking, “Life isn’t fair”, consider this, the only reason that many things in life are deemed acceptable, is because nobody wants to stand up for what they believe in anymore.

    Well, I am not some kid that just thinks “Taylor is cute keep him” (although THOSE are important people to listen to as well), I am a 29 year old, mother, who happens to believe in Taylor Lautner, in his abilities,and in his right to keep this part, that most of the world has now come to know him as.
    He is quite an amazing actor in general, but especially for someone his age, he will only grow in experience, and skill as he matures.
    Re-casting Jacob Black now could definitely be the breaking point of New Moon. I have started a petition on behalf of Taylor Lautner, personally, and in less than 30 hours I have received an unbelievable amount of feedback, and several signatures from people who feel exactly as I do. People of all different ages, from all walks of life, from the US to Russia and Germany. I will do what it takes to be heard. If that means emails and letters every day to Summit Entertainment, and every magazine or website that I can find that promotes the movie, then that’s what I’ll do.
    I believe in Stepehenie Meyers’ vision, I believe in the Twilight Series, I believe in the cast of the movies for the series, every one of them, and I believe in Taylor Lautner. Just as a side note, I am definitely, unquestionably Team Edward, but I will stand up for Team Lautner on this one.

    They should not change actors. With the little scenes Taylor had, he did great. He’s how I pictured Jacob. It’s stupid that they put him out there as Jacob and now they want to take that away. They left so much out in Twilight, I’m sure they could make him not grow 7 feet… They’re going to screw the movie over. Summit sucks. Stephenie should say something. Although I heard she signed it over and Summit is free to do whatever they want with it. Stupid, I swear. Taylor is the best Jacob. I’m not paying 9.50 to watch them change characters. I tend not to watch movies when they do that. It’s irritating. I really wish it wasn’t Summit who picked up on this movie.

    I HATE THIS!! Its so dumb when movies change the cast for movies. I loved Taylor in Twilight and he had great Chemistry with Kristen Stewart. He IS Jacob Black. Personally I think this whole thing is becoming a bigger problem then necessary. I mean I love the books more than anythijg, but really I think the story would be fine is JAcob turned into a werewolf and didnt get THAT huge. I mean look at who they csat as Sam before. He was already a werewolf and wasnt a giant. I meant with the technology these days even if they wanted Jacob to be a giant they still could.

    Changing actors in movies basically means its inevitable to be a bad series. It just symbolizes that the people running it dont have a clue what they are doing.

    Micheal Copon is a terrible actor. I saw him in One Tree Hill. He cant act at all, and doesnt even look Native American.

    Even if they replace Taylor PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NOOOTTT with Copon!!

    if he’s not in new moon im not going to go see it. im sorry but they should of thought about the future films BEFORE they filmed the first movie because now we all fell in love with taylor and when i read all the twilight books i always picture taylor because he’s PERFECT for the part. There are ways to make him look bigger and stronger…if you get a actor in his 20’s to play jacob there wont be chemistry because most people see him as the young imature warewolf. Look at how many people are agest this. DONT COUNT ON MAKING MONEY OFF OF THIS FLIM BECAUSE I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE INCLUDING ME WHO WONT GO SEE THE MOVIE IF TAYLOR’S NOT IN IT AND I KNOW THATS HOW MOST PEOPLE FEEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Oh, come on. They want to get technical now?

    First of all, if anyone should be replaced, it should be Kristen Stewert. That girl has zero acting skills… she shows no emotion, is extremely monotone, and sounds more like a man than Rob Pattinson. She’s also terribly mean to her fan-base.
    Secondly, it’s not like they stuck to the book for the first film! If they can stray from the first book like they did, I don’t think it will hurt to keep Lautner as Jacob.
    P.S. He’s the only reason I’ll go see New Moon.

    I Would Want To Change Anything About The Characters !!
    So Hey I Say To Keep Taylor Lautner As Jacob Black. It Just Wouldnt Be The Same With Out Him as Jacob Black!
    If You Change One Film Then Your Going TO Have To Change THe First One Altogether!!!

    I’m pretty sure that was just a joke..Taylor met with Chris Weitz on Friday to disuss his involvement in New Moon, so until information is released from that, we really have no clue as to what his happening with the casting.

    and if they do replace taylor, it shouldn’t be with Michael Copon. Can you say ugly?!? I’d rather have Steven Strait (who I wanted in the begining)

    Um just to let everyone know, he’s not the only one being replaced, as for the main characters, no one is returning except for Pattinson and Stewart as Edward and Bella, everyone else is being recast. I hate sequels in which the characters are recast, it’s ridiculous, if that is what they plan on doing then there should be no movie in the first place, especially any sequels.

    Nooo!!! They cannot do this!! Taylor is the PERFECT Jacob!! The movie would be a total loss without him!! So many fans are Team Jacob and they will lose so many fans for this. Jacob is an important part in Bella’s life so he can’t just be one person to a different one. No I won’t stand this. We, Twilight Fans demand a petition against this. TAYLOR LAUTNER SHOULD BE JACOB. BRING CATHERINE HARWICK BACK. TAYLOR LAUTNER SHOULD BE JACOB. BRING CATHERINE HARWICK BACK!!

    i think if they do replace taylor it should be with steven strait, he is what i thought of as jacon in the beginning and he could do so much for the mature aspect of the jacob character. yeah, taylor was really good but he is also the immature, kiddish side of jacob and idk if he could pull off the 20-yr old side. Steven Strait is so much hotter also, the really should replace Kristen Stewart though, that would make all the rest of the movies so much better. She can’t act at all and she brings nothing to the character.

    Anyways go Steven Strait!!!

    I’m not sure if the information you got was exactly accurate.
    Taylor in the MTV interview said, it was still up in the air.
    Even so, I think it is wrong what they’re doing.
    I mean, How can you make so much money,but have little to spend? Also, how are you going to pay robert more then anyone else, when his character is barely in new moon. To be quite honest i really don’t understand how you think Taylor looks young.
    My friends and i agree he doesn’t look like 16 years old AT ALL.
    He’s has an 8 pack! Though he doesn’t to get a little bigger, but thats it. I don’t agree with replacing him, it would ruin the movie.
    To be honest you can live if they change just a little think like him
    not being very big for new moon. I mean come on, they can use effects. Unless, they’re really not going to spend much on this film.
    I understood the first one being a budget film, but come on this is a big frachise, that made a whole lot of money. Anyways, just thought i’d say that.

    Also, i saw someone said Robert had more talent in acting
    then Taylor. Heres my opinion, yes Robert can act good. Though
    in my opinion Taylor is a better actor, he has more variety, and a
    really cool personality.

    Don’t get me wrong Robert can act too.

    I’m NOT even in team jacob! COME ON! Rehiring is UTTER STUPIDITY! NOT FAIR to Stephenie Meyer at all because if Lautner gets replaced, a whole chunk of fan base is gonna come off, and twilight saga plummets at box office, sales gets affected, impression of the books goes down, and so does Stephenie Meyer’s hard work. Conclusion: for heaven’s sake. DO. NOT. REHIRE. thank you.

It would be so freacking unfair ! I’m probably the biggiest Taylor Luatner fan ever(no offense )! I’m on Team Jacob and i say that this is probably the worst thing that Summit can do. Apart from hiring Rob Pattinson for Edward and Kirsten Stewert for Bella . Kirsten:no emmotion, Robert : crappy acting . All i’m gonna say. THEY BETTER CRAWL ON THEIR HANDS AND FEET AND BEG,AND I MEAN BEG, TAYLOR LAUTNER TO COME BACK ! i was all happy and giggly with Taylor as Jacob .Summit Entertainment is probably gonna die now. I hope it does. They’ve totally ruined New Moon for me. I’m sooo not gonna see it . And I mean it . NOt gonna waste my breath and money know that Taylors’ gone .

    Don’t believe what this article says. Nothing has been confirmed just yet.

    For those who are saying that Taylor only portrays Jacob’s ‘immature’ side – Well, actors are versatile. When I first saw Taylor I though he looked like he was in his 20’s! And Jacob didn’t look too ‘immature’ at the end of the Twilight film when he glared at Edward!

    It would be so weird now that we’ve got to know Taylor as Jacob, for in New Moon another actor to play his part. Jacob isn’t meant to change appearance entirely! Just be taller, look more mature. Not be a totally different person!

    Keep Taylor.

    You cant recast any part of the cast now because they are loved as much as the books!! When reading the books I never liked Jacob but Taylor made me like Jacob!! If they recast his character then New Moon wont be the same. Yes the character needs to be taller and be more mature but doesnt mean he should be a totally different person. I agree Taylor is the true Jacob Black and if they recast the character then i will probably go back to not liking JAcob!! And New Moon will truly not be the same with out Taylor!!!!! If they recast Jacob for NEw Moon it will be like recasting Edward in Twilight!! It will not be the same!!!!!!!!! So they need to keep Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black!!!!1
    I agree,

    TAYLOR=THE TRUE JACOB BLACK!

    They can’t recast Jacob. I mean it just wouldn’t work. You see one actor in one movie then a completley different actor in another movie is just not right.
    Besides, Taylor is one of my favorite actors in the Twilight movie, he and whoever plays Emmett, wow there hotttt!!! *Sorry*
    But, back to the point. You just can’t recast him…and if you do you can count me out of seeing the movie. I will refuse to see the movie, boycott it too! Just go to this site and sign the Guestbook, if enough people speak out they’ll have to listen

    Are you kidding me? Do they have a brain? Everybody see’s Taylor Lautner as Jacob now, it’s incredibly stupid to even think about replacing him! It’s so confusing, and it drives me crazy, here are all these fans, trying to persuade Summit to keep Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black in New Moon, and it’s like Summit says, ” We don’t give a shit that all the fans want Taylor Lautner, we want someone else”, do they not care about people watching the movie? It’s so friggen stupid. I know that it’s hard to make a person taller and do all that visual effect stuff, and that they have a small budget, but none of the fans care, all we want is Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black. It will totally ruin the whole vision of Twilight for the fans, since now each person who played a character in Twilight is how us fans, imagine the character their playing to be, (if that makes any sense), I personally, don’t get it, but I hope it works out the way it’s meant to be, Taylor Lautner playing Jacob Black.

    and i dout they spend so much money on edward that they cant afford taylor.you know how people adzagerate. taylor needs to be there for the rest of the twilight movies because from here on out,jacob is important to the whole story.especially with renesmee coming.(if they do eclipce and breaking dawn which i soooooo hope they do)and another thing,if they cant pay for jacob,how are they going to pay for a new actor,and the rest of the wolf pack that wasnt in twilight.this is just dumb and they need to keep taylor.
    oh,does anyone know who is playing renesmee if they do a movie for brreaking dawn?
