Save Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black Petition

So…..we’re not taking sides here, but it’s hard to ignore the huge outpour of support for Twilight star Taylor Lautner. Fans are demanding he remains cast as Jacob Black in New Moon, despite sources indicating that Summit is looking into casting someone else such as Michael Copon.

Well, we thought we’d make it a bit more official with the NewMoonMovie.org Taylor Lautner Petition. This joins other ones we’ve seen, which have gathered in the thousands of signatures. There’s also a Facebook group and blog to show your support and coordinate too.

So, if you’re for Jacob Black’s role remaining in the hands of Taylor Lautner, be sure to sign the petition–

    You have to take Taylor. He is simply perfect. Is the incarnation of Jacob. Certainly it is a bit lower, but otherwise is perfect. And now the film is different from the book, so different for different words and take Taylor. Do not disappoint our fans.
  • Taylor is amazing & he's the best for the part of Jacob. He cannot be replaced!

    TAYLOR IS THE PERFECT JACOB.... IF HE WILL BE REPLACED I WON'T SEE NEW MOON... I REALLY CAN'T IMAGINE ANOTHER JAKE...HE IS THE ONE
  • Babyblue
    Forget Taylor!!! I want MICHAEL!!! Wohhooo! He's just WAY better for the role than Taylor is. At least in New Moon I know he would work a lot better than Tay...so, sorry super Taylor fans!!! I liked Taylor don't take me wrong but I am able to put my Taylor love aside and evaluate things clearly, and COPON is definetly a better option....sorry but that's just my personal opinion {don't hate me for speaking my thoughts}
  • Mina
    NO! keep Taylor. He is an amazing actor. Perfect acting for the job.
  • Carol (Brazil)
    I like Taylor so much, but we should keep in mind that things changes in New Moon. Taylor was good as Jacob only in twilight. :( If they keep Taylor it will be very strange.
    I want a petition for another actor!

    Casting a new Jacob will alienate those who have watched Twilight with Tyler in it. It will be like starting all over again (you know, new face & all). Please don't replace Tyler, what's the use of the high technology if you can't do camera tricks to make him look huge? And one more thing, he can do the action things without a double (him being a karate/martial arts expert), can any of your subs do that?

    I think replacing Taylor would be a bad idea. He is what helps bring teenage girls to this movie. Him and Robert are the two leading men of this movie. Your going to disappoint alot of teenage girls and loose alot of business by doing this!

    Everyone loves Taylor as Jacob. People want him to be Jacob. Come on Summit. We are telling you what we want. Not many movies get that. Go to some forums, do a little research into what we want, use it, and voila... You have an $80million Opening weekend. Some say that that is possibly stretching it. I don't. Give us want we want and you will have people going back to see it 4-5 times in one weekend. Its not that hard. All it requires you to do is put in a few more man hrs, and shell out a bit more cash. Do that and you are bound to make any movies opening that weekend cower in fear.

    We need a petition to sing to replace taylor. No offense, he was good in twilight but he would be totally insufficient in the subsequent books. Jacob is supposed to be able to rival Edward in some ways, and what girl over the age of 14 would ever even consider taylor right now over Rob Pattinson, again, no offense Taylor but you're just too young and undeveloped.


    Definitely need a new more dangerous and edge Jacob Black

    well, taylor lautner is actually amazingly HOT. he does play a good jacob, atleast in twilight he did
    the only problem is that he has a baby face. if he has to play the chiseled, more mature jacob, his looks wouldn't fit right for the part

    again, nothing at all against taylor lautner.... hes amazing =]

    i think taylor is the only one that is right for jacob in new moon so i'm all for team taylor!!!

    I LOVE TAYLOR LAUTNER!!!!!
  • myleesia
    I THINK THAT REPLACING TAYLOR IS THE WORST IDEA I HAVE EVER HEARD.
    IF YOU WANT TO KEEP TWILIGHT FANS THEN KEEP THE CHARACTERS DONT REPLACE THEM!!!!!! IF YOU REPLACE TAYLOR THEN YOU MIGHT AS WELL REPLACE EDWARD AND BELLA AND BILLY AND CHARLIE JUST REPLACE THE WHOLE CAST. IF YOU STILL PLAN ON MAKING MONEY FROM THESE MOVIES THEN KEEP TAYLOR. WE DONT CARE WHETHER HE LOOKS TALLER OR NOT. WE JUST WANT THE SAME CHARACTERS, WE WANT THE "REAL" JACOB BLACK!!!!! I WONDER HOW TAYLOR FEELS ABOUT THIS HE'S PROBABLY JUST AS DEVASTATED AS EVERYONE ELSE. YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT MR.DIRECTOR IF YOU KNOW WHAT IS GOOD FOR THIS SERIES OF TWILIGHT YOU'LL DO WHAT DO WHAT THE FANS WANT AND KEEP TAYLOR LAUTNER. A.K.A. THE ONLY JACOB BLACK
  • mahari
