[post_page_title]Not right for the part[/post_page_title]
While “Twilight” might not have received the best reviews from critics, it was a commercial success. People loved the big screen adaptation and couldn’t wait for the sequel, although whether they’d be seeing Lautner again was uncertain.
Considering the huge changes that his character went through between the first and second book, the director wanted an actor who looked the part of Jacob in “New Moon.” Taylor had a decent body, but he didn’t have the muscle needed to look convincing. The film would require a different actor.
