Quote of the Day: Taylor Lautner on Shirtlessness

Taylor Lautner, shirtless in the New Moon poster

“I worked hard to get in shape for this role. My motivation was the movie and the fans, but I don’t want to become known as just a body. If I had to choose, I would never take my shirt off again in a movie, but I guess that’s not very realistic. I certainly won’t be asking to do it, though.”

- New Moon hunk Taylor Lautner on going topless. I hope that he seriously reconsiders that bit about not wanting to take his shirt off again for a film!

Jacob Black the Star of New Moon Trailer


Based on the latest box office results, you were probably one of the many who didn’t watch Bandslam this weekend. That means you most likely missed out on the latest New Moon trailer.

Although we’ve already heard Bella tell Jacob Black that he’s “sorta beautiful,” we haven’t seen his bedroom skills until now. Did you know he could just leap in and out of your window? Pretty amazing considering he’s 30 pounds bigger!

New Moon is a lot more complicated than Twilight was,” narrates. “As time goes on, the heat starts building. New Moon is gonna be stepped up a whole other notch. There’s more action in this one, especially with the werewolves involved. I think the fans are really going to be happy.”

The saga continues on November 20.

Check Out New Moon’s Hunky Wolf Pack

New Moon's Wolf Pack

‘s cast is steadily filling out…and in a nice way.

USA Today has just revealed the four men - Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon and Bronson Pelletier - who will comprise the wolf pack Jacob Black belongs to. (Now we know why Taylor Lautner’s role was considered so critical.)

By the way - if you’re thinking that this shirtless picture is nothing more than a publicity stunt, you’d be wrong. The actors, all of Native American descent, will spend their on-screen time this way.

“They went through wolf camp together, and they are in constant training. It paid off as a bonding thing for them and helped them to get to know one another. They drove each other to get more buff,” director stated.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon unfolds in theaters on November 20.

Twilight’s Taylor Lautner Talks About Possible New Moon Replacement


UPDATE: Taylor will be keeping his job after all.

If Taylor Lautner’s really at risk of losing his job, the actor is not going to go down without a fight. Or at least an extra push-up.

In an interview last week with MTV, the 16-year-old addressed rumors that he may be left out of the upcoming sequel. According to a recent report in Entertainment Weekly, the studio was looking to find someone else to tackle Jacob Black’s beefier role in New Moon. Since that time, Michael Copon (Scorpion King 2) and Ben Barnes’ (Prince Caspian) names have been thrown out as possible replacements. (Copon has even gone so far as to imply on his own Facebook page that he was already given the role.)

All the Buzz on the Twilight Sequel

Twilight

Given Twilight‘s spectacular opening weekend, Summit Entertainment’s plans for a sequel came as no surprise. (Even if the news was announced after Day One.) Unfortunately, the studio’s desire to quickly turnaround the followup has forced Catherine Hardwicke to drop out of the project. But should a change of director give fans a reason to be concerned?
