Taylor Lautner Gains Weight for Movie Role
Taylor Lautner, who plays the werewolf Jacob Black in the Twilight films, seems to be growing as the series continues to grow. In the sequel New Moon, he is considerably bigger (see image above) and he plans on bulking up even more for the third film, Eclipse. Lautner told People Magazine,
“Jacob’s character is continually growing throughout the series, so I got about eight weeks off before I go back again for Eclipse and I’m going to be hitting the gym.”
Once the series is over he plans on getting back down to his normal weight.
“When we’re done with the Twilight films I’ll definitely bulk down and just get lean again because I don’t want to stay big and bulky.”
Here’s what co-star Ashley Greene had to say about Lautner’s weight gain:
“It’s insane! I was going through my phone and looking at all the pictures, and there’s one from the wrap party that we did here after the first one and it’s incredible. I was like, ‘Taylor, did you see this?’ He was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ He gained 30 lbs. He’s not a little kid anymore.”
New Moon hits theaters in November of 2009.
