Sharkboy to fuzz out in NEW MOON!

Published at:  Jan 07, 2009 7:06:08 PM CST

Hey girls, Harry here... That dreamy Taylor Lautner, who first had you panting in your capris, will be wolfing it out in NEW MOON, aka TWILIGHT 2! Isn't that like the best news ever? How very! Speaking of wolfing it out - I suggest you check out HOWLING 2 - it's really all about what girl werewolves do, and it's how you should too!




TAYLOR LAUTNER TO REPRISE HIS ROLE AS JACOB IN NEW MOON

Los Angeles, CA January 7, 2009 – Summit Entertainment and director Chris Weitz are pleased to confirm that Taylor Lautner will reprise his role as Jacob Black in the TWILIGHT franchise’s next film installment NEW MOON.

“I'm very happy that Taylor will be playing Jacob Black in NEW MOON and that he's doing so with the enthusiastic support of Summit, the producers and Stephenie Meyer,” said Weitz. “The characters in Stephenie's books go through extraordinary changes of circumstance and also appearance; so it is not surprising that there has been speculation about whether the same actor would portray a character who changes in so many surprising ways throughout the series. But it was my first instinct that Taylor was, is, and should be Jacob, and that the books would be best served by the actor who is emotionally right for the part.”

“My experience on TWILIGHT was wonderful and I am looking forward to continuing on with the team for NEW MOON,” said Lautner. “I have been working hard preparing for the physicality that this role will require and can’t wait to get started with the filming of NEW MOON.”

In NEW MOON, which will be released domestically November 20, 2009, Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) is devastated by the abrupt departure of her vampire love, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) but her spirit is rekindled by her growing friendship with the irresistible Jacob Black. Suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of the werewolves, ancestral enemies of the vampires, and finds her loyalties tested. Production on NEW MOON is scheduled to begin in the coming months and the studio is planning to release the film on November 20, 2009.

The action-packed, modern day vampire love story and blockbuster success of the first film in the series entitled TWILIGHT was released in theatres on November 21st grossing $69.6 million domestically during its first weekend. To date the film has grossed over $177 million domestically.

Lautner had the role of Jacob in TWILIGHT and also has been seen in CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN 2 and THE ADVENTURES OF SHARKBOY AND LAVAGIRL 3-D.

Lautner is represented by WMA.

    Twilight was horrendus

    by liljuniorbrown

    Fangirls/boys should just admit it. Besides being a rip off of Buffy/Angel and the Anne Rice books,the quality of the movie just reeked. Looked real low budget. It's ok to admit to a bad adaptation... I love all things Superman,have all my life, but I think that the last three Superman films have been disapointing to say the least (3 and 4 were almost unwatchable) . Just man up an admit it.

    That's what came to mind immediately. They actually pay Sharkboy (the wrestler) royalties for that movie since he owns the copyright.

    by charlie_allnut

    but I heard it was boring, had no action, a bad script, and bad special effects. Are girls this desperate for they're own genre films?

    ..."Twilight is cool" General Custer-ish last stand...inviting all the Wild Indian fanboys in the world to ride down on top of him howling for his long red scalp. That takes balls.

    The movie was all right, but this kid looked like a fucking douche bag. Seriously. He looks like he might have Downs Syndrome or something. This is not to say that all people who have Downs Syndrome look like fucking douche bags--just this guy.

    So, she's just a slut?

    by jose_jones

    So, I don't know much about this Movie version of "goosebumps" with fangs. But what I got so far, is that chick that looked like a boy in PANIC ROOM, but stripped to her panties in INTO THE WILD, gets finger banged by a Vampire and a Werewolf? What a Ho-Bag! Parents are letting their kids read this "JUNGLE FEVER" bullshit? AND MR.Incrdible when you ask Does he want to be known as the dude who played that cradle- robbing werewolf in Twilight?--The Answer is YES! because Money is awesome, and it's not like the dude is getting any other offers at zee moment. That's what werewolves like about high school chicks, "they get older........."

    by theghostwholurks

    If this were a romance novel, then YES: She's just a SLUT. However, since this is geared to the Hanna Montana crowd, she's simply... "conflicted."She's sort of like Archie Andrews... Betty or Veronica? Except Archie actually gets play from BOTH. ;)

    Where do you people come up w/ this stuff?

    by my pretty pony

    *SPOILERS* (if anyone cares) How is Bella a slut? She's a virgin until her wedding night and does not cheat on her husband. Jacob is not a pedophile. When he imprinted on Renesmee, he became her protector. He didn't have a thing for her. Because they're both supernatural creatures, they'll both eventually be 18 forever. If they want to, they can be together then.

    Obviously you don't get, that this is just us taking the piss outta you. It's the equivalent, of seeing people in line for a Star Wars Film and yelling out "Star Trek Sucks!" Though I'm sure this reference is over your head since your probably 10. You need a Geek to truly make fun of a GEEK is what I'm saying. and TheGhostWhoLurks....thank you for clearing that up for me. Do vampire bites count as Hickies?
