When Taylor Lautner Shed Light On His Difficult Bond With Robert Pattison While Filming Twilight Series

by

As an ardent fan of the Twilight saga, I find myself utterly captivated by the insights Taylor Lautner has shared about his bond with Robert Pattison during their time together on the sets of these iconic films. The dynamic between Jacob Black and Edward Cullen was always a fascinating aspect of the franchise for me, and it seems that off-screen, their relationship mirrored that intrigue.

Taylor Lautner openly shared about his relationship with Robert Pattinson during the Twilight film productions in an interview with Alex Cooper on the Call Her Daddy podcast. During the conversation, the actor admitted that while he enjoyed friendly relationships with everyone else involved, establishing a bond with the main actor of the series, Pattinson, was challenging. To add to their off-screen separation, their characters in the movies were also embroiled in a rivalry over who would win Bella Swan’s affections.

During a chat in December 2023, the actor made it clear that there was no animosity between them, and they frequently engaged in group discussions. However, individually, they preferred to tread separate paths.

The actor from The Grown Ups 2 told the podcast host, “I found it challenging…” He went on to say, “I can’t speak for him, but for me at least, it was difficult – and at my age, I’d get hurt when I shouldn’t. But it’s tough not to feel that way sometimes.

Later, Lautner admitted that it was an uncomfortable scenario for both actors when they were standing at the balcony because the crowd would jeer at Taylor and applaud for Pattinson. He further explained that given the circumstances, maintaining a friendship became challenging.

Nevertheless, Lautner feels that he and Rob are incredibly dissimilar individuals, yet he has always been extraordinary and the kindest soul around.

During an interview, Taylor Lautner shared his thoughts on how Twilight’s ending should have gone. In the series, Lautner played Jacob Black and he felt that his character should have ended up with Bella Swan, who was portrayed by Kristen Stewart. Instead, as the storyline unfolds in the movie, Bella marries her vampire partner, Edward Cullen, played by Robert Pattinson.

Lautner playfully criticized the followers of Team Edward by joining in on a popular trend. On his TikTok account, the actor posted a video where he watched Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1, and as Bella walked toward Pattinson’s character, Lautner, who starred in Abduction, expressed his opinion by commenting, “To be honest, Edward can go hang. Bella should have ended up with Jacob instead.

One user said, “This was the best part of my year.”; Another user admitted, “It wasn’t until later that I realized who posted the video.”; and another fan declared, “Lautner took over this trend.”)

On the work front, Lautner last appeared in the 2022 film, Home Team.
