Taylor Lautner enlivens a simple walk on a rainy day in Vancouver by doing a bit of parkour with a playful leap over a red fire hydrant that was standing in his way. This move is reminiscent of the stunt he recently did on the New Moon set that was caught by Entertainment Tonight (go to 0:11).

Aside from being a martial arts champion, Taylor Lautner added a considerable amount of muscles to his frame that worked to his advantage when he bagged the role of Jacob Black in New Moon
Robert Pattinson describes to moviefone his initial reaction to his New Moon co-star after not seeing him for a period of time.
“It was weird. When I came back, I hadn’t seen him in ages, hadn’t seen him since the summer and when I saw him, I saw him just before he got casted, and he put on like 100 pounds! I was like “Jesus Christ! If he doesn’t get it, it’s ridiculous.” But what are you going to do?
“There was a video of him on set the other day doing all these kind of fight stunts. That kid is incredible; he is one of the most stunning athletes I’ve ever seen in my life. I don’t know, I think it’ll be interesting. I haven’t seen any of his stuff yet, but everyone’s going a little bit crazy over him.”

Yeah, I’m proud of Taylor Lautner–initially I didn’t think he would be believable as Jacob in New Moon. I just couldn’t see it. But from the first ET clips, I did a total 360. Especially with the wig! I like the wig.
Can’t wait to see him in New Moon.
