Of course, with the movie coming out in a few months from now, they will capitalize on it. Stephenie Meyer’s sequel to the bestseller Twilight, New Moon, now has a new cover.

It shows Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) locked in an embrace with the wolf, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) while a copper-eyed Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) moons over them.

Sizzling cover!

I’m still Team Edward, though. No matter what they say about Taylor

Will it still be Taylor Lautner? Reports are surfacing that the role of Jacob Black is still up for grabs to whoever will be good looking enough to play the role. New Moon, the sequel to the monster movie hit Twilight, is focused more on the friendship that developed between Jacob Black and Bella Swan (to be reprised by Kristen Stewart). And Jacob in New Moon will grow by leaps and bounds more so when he starts becoming a werewolf. Taylor’s camp is releasing reports to the media that the 16-year-old actor has gained 19 lbs. since the end of filming of Twilight and will be gaining even more before the shoot of New Moon.

Personally, I feel a more mature actor should play the role. In the book, Jacob Black is taller than Edward Cullen and has started shooting up to 6 feet tall. In reality, Taylor is shorter than Rob Pattinson who plays (and will continue playing) Edward Cullen. If and when Taylor reprises the role of Jacob Black, I wonder how they will make it look that he’s a six footer.

Do you want Taylor Lautner to continue playing Jacob Black in New Moon?
