Taylor Lautner starred as Jacob Black in the hit film series Twilight. However, in a recent interview with E! News, the actor shared that he wouldn’t say no to stepping back into his Twilight saga iconic role. Lautner added, “He’s a good character that is easy to love, so I would never say no to that because it’s Jacob Black. He’s a lovable guy.”
Lautner starred in the vampire franchise alongside Kristen Stewart (Bella) and Robert Pattinson (Edward), playing Jacob when the actor was in his late teens. In the film’s final instalment, Jacob falls for Bella and Edward’s daughter, Renesmee. Noting that, the actor speculated that Jacob and Renesmee were doing just fine, saying the past 10 years have been “happy ever after with Renesmee because that’s where I left off.”
Lautner also said that while he enjoyed playing the character, he might not be as willing to return to the fitness routine the role required. Taylor shared, “I think that was great for the role, but I would prefer just to be trim and healthy. Definitely not a Jacob Black body.” Lautner then explained, “The body was great for the role but the amount of the working out and discipline and food that went into it, not fond memories.”

The actor further explained, “It’s tough because when I was 17, 18, 19 years old, I couldn’t do any cardio because I had just to put on as much muscle as possible.” The Scream Queens actor continued, “So, if I would start like sweating during a workout, my trainer would stop me. And then we would finish a workout, and he literally is like, ‘Go to Carl’s Jr. and get a double, triple cheeseburger.’ “
Taylor also shared, “We were just trying to put on the weight. Now, I wish I could go back there in that sense because now it’s 90 per cent cardio, and I’m not having any triple cheeseburgers, that’s for sure.” For the unversed, Lautner took a break from acting following his time in the Twilight movies, which is when he met his fiancée, Tay Dome. She recently posted her own revelations about her Twilight feelings.
