Alex Meraz and Taylor Lautner: Martial Arts During Free Time

Alex Meraz new Moon Paul fighting dancing

Alex Meraz, a fellow wolf pack member in New Moon with Taylor Lautner, reveals that the two put their background in martial arts to good use–in their free time, the duo perform martial arts together!

Meraz, who plays a volatile member of the wolf pack named Paul, tells us he and fellow furry friend Taylor Lautner often pass the time between shooting doing martial arts, including karate and backflips.

“The wolf pack is like brothers,” squealed Meraz, eagerly.

The crew is currently shooting in Vancouver, and Meraz says it is going “great.” He adds that the sequel, in his humble estimation, will definitely be superior to the original.

“It gets bigger, better and more exciting,” gushed Meraz.

    OMG! they're hot!
  • mrscullen
    I see all the six packs on the wolf pack. Haven't seen any pix of Rob's!! What's the deal? Isn't Rob dedicated enough to get a chiseled bod like the rest of them? Besides, Edward is supposed to show more skin in the later saga series. Or maybe Rob does have his six pack and is too shy to show it off!!! Team Edward all the way!!!
  • i think he should do it pants-less too teehee

  • 4thewolf
    hahahahahahha "arts".
    Girl, you know how to make me laugh.
  • IHowl2 - The ONLY Samske Girl
    lol!!! Glad that I made you laugh... I was snickering myself when I wrote that!!
  • 4thewolf
    We are so delightfully immature. Can you see us with the wolves waiting for our turns and just snickering like idiots. *snicker* is my current fave word right now.

    Jake waiting. Gotta go.
    LOL
  • IHowl2 - The ONLY Samske Girl

  • 4thewolf
    Morning, wolf girl. I put the coffee outside your cubicle. (:
    Warning: Don't read any of Brooke's comments on here this a.m. if you want to get anything done.
    I couldn't get past "glistening" without half dying and now I have to go smack my head against a wall to start the day off correctly.
    Talk to you later! (:
