We had our doubts about whether the screenshot of Michael Copon’s Facebook status “Michael is the older Jacob Black!” from December 10th was real. And, even if it was a real screenshot–was it really his page? Well, it looks like it was real screenshot, and it really is his page.

I doubt it’s coincidence he referenced “Twilight Zone”–perhaps a nod to the series–and after wishing a happy holidays, he says “let’s start a new year, it’s gonna be a fun one” with a big grin. Here’s another video he posted back on November 11th that further proves it is, indeed, his Facebook page:
Michael Copon’s page also has pictures dating back more than a year, such as this one from the set of the Scorpion King on October 10, 2007:

There is no confirmation of Taylor Lautner being replaced from any official source. These new details give a lot of credence to the rumor, though.
Most recently, at 5:42am EST this morning, Copon posted this status update where he mentions again that he is Jacob Black:
