Twilight Bandages

HUGE news for Taylor Lautner supporters! He was just interviewed and he insists that reports he won’t be on New Moon are greatly exaggerated. In fact, he’s going to meet Chris Weitz for lunch on Friday to speak about his role. Will he get bad news or good news from Weitz? I have a feeling Friday might just be the big decision. Speaking to MTV News, he says-

“I’ve heard a few things,” he said of Copon. “I don’t really know too much to comment on it. As far as I know, I haven’t been told ‘no’ yet, so it’s still all up in the air.”

“I have been working out. I’ve been working out since the day we finished filming ‘Twilight.’ I just weighed myself today; I’ve put on 19 pounds,” the noticeably larger Lautner told us, promising that he’ll be big enough to fit Stephenie Meyer’s physical description of Jacob Black in “New Moon” when cameras begin rolling in 12 weeks. “I’m guaranteeing Weitz 10 more [pounds] by filming.”  

So if all this is true, and it’s he’s meeting with Chris Weitz tomorrow, why the mysterious omission of Lautner’s name in the recent press release from Summit? The Jacob Black hopeful says that-

“I think it’s because, well, Rob and Kristen were the lead roles in ‘Twilight,’ so they’ve got to be back,” he reasoned. “I don’t even know if they’re officially signed; maybe they are, I don’t know. They just hired Weitz, and now they’re just moving down the cast. All I can say is, I’m going to be ready if my number’s called.”

He also says that the claims he was being CGI’d by the makers of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button to see if special effects could make him look more buff in order to play the older and bigger looking Jacob Black are off-base.

Nothing [along those lines] has happened, and I don’t know if it will,” he told us. “I think there’s a lot of things that have gotten blown up that haven’t really occurred. That hasn’t happened. I’ve just been working out for awhile, and I’m ready.”

He finishes with a pretty strong signal that he will stay on as Jacob Black in New Moon–

“My job for ‘Twilight’ was to bring ‘Twilight’ Jacob to life — the friendly, happy-go-lucky little Jacob,” Lautner explained, looking forward to the Friday lunch that will shape the future of his career. “And my job for ‘New Moon’ is completely different; I’ve been looking forward to that. I’ve been getting ready for it, and I can assure them that I will follow through with that job.”

Don’t miss the newest update from Stephenie Meyer’s official site!–

It has come to our attention that there are several people on social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook pretending to be Stephenie. The only site besides StephenieMeyer.com that Stephenie has is a MySpace site at www.myspace.com/stephenie_meyer. Only announcements on this website and Stephenie’s official MySpace page should be considered legitimate. Please note, due to the overwhelming number of e-mails she receives on her MySpace page, Stephenie is unable to answer e-mails.

Also, Stephenie is aware of the numerous Twilight conventions happening next year. It is exciting to see so many fans wanting to celebrate the books together. However, these conventions are not authorized or endorsed by Stephenie and she will not be attending any of the conventions. We hope that fans enjoy the conferences, but wanted to make this distinction so people weren’t spending money under the assumption that Stephenie would be in attendance.

While I’m posting, I wanted to take a minute to congratulate everyone involved in the production of Twilight the movie. If you haven’t been following the box office statistics, I would suggest checking them out on BoxOfficeMojo.com. The success really has been phenomenal, so congrats to everyone at Summit, the very talented actors, and everyone else involved in the making of the film!

And on a slightly unrelated note, I forgot to post a link to the Twilight: The Score when it was released last week (this is separate from the soundtrack, and the only song that is on both is “Bella’s Lullaby”). It has been receiving great reviews on-line, so I went to listen to some of the samples at Amazon.com (link above) and it is extremely good. If you are still looking for gifts for the holidays, this might be a good one for anyone who enjoyed the movie.

We at StephenieMeyer.com want to wish everyone a happy holiday season. We appreciate you visiting our site. Please be safe and have an enjoyable few weeks.

Some fans of Edward Cullen gave New Orleans writer Brianna Prevost a piece of their mind recently during Brianna’s trip to see Twilight. And it was all because she was wearing a Team Jacob shirt–

A group of women in front of me keep turning around and sniffing me saying things like, “God, what’s that smell, it smells awful around here,” referring to Edward and the rest of his vampire clan’s sensitive aversion to the smell of werewolves.

One older woman tried not to let me back in the theatre when I left to get the rest of my friends, and one very disgusted teenager turned to look at me, rolled her eyes and said, “Team Jacob, really? Yeah right,” as she popped her bubblegum and twirled her hair back to her seat.

Michael Copon briefly addresses the buzz that he will play Jacob Black in a new interview today. While he mostly just plugs the other projects he is working on, he does have this to say about New Moon:

I think that it is pretty clear that there are huge rumors going around the Internet about me up for the role as Jacob Black. At this point, they are only rumors. There are a lot of opinions going around on the Internet about this role. It is definitely a role of a lifetime and I would love to have that chance.

Clearly things are still up in the air, though he does seem excited at the prospect of playing Jacob. He is finally getting around to reading the books, too. He says that “I have just started reading Twilight. Everyone kept saying that it was the best book in the world so I had to go and read it.” You can read the rest of the interview at Popstar.
