NewMoonMovie.org: Poll: Who Should Play Jacob Black? Results

  • daffy · 11 months ago
    Yes on STEVEN STRAIT! His sex appeal will certainly compete really well against Rob and would put us all in high gear! Michael Copon should be considered for a part of Sam, not Jacob. How can your replace Jacob with Michael who has a lesser talent and looks than Taylor. Steven Strait is a very acceptable replacement. He's equally as HOT as Rob, so it's more believable and exciting to see both of them fighting for Bella's love.

    ur so rite..Steven strait would be perfect.taylor lautner is too young for older jacob..he wouldnt have sex appeal..who cares if hes ripped..he doesnt look mature enough...i think its a good idea if he stays as jacob only in the first part of new moon.i totally agree with kat and daffy...

    Steven Strait looks too old now!
  • Kat · 11 months ago
    I love Steven, and the Steven in Sky High was who I imagine Jacob Black to be like. But now, he's much too old to play Jacob Black....
  • Rae · 11 months ago
    Im with everyone for Steven Strait. to me, he has always been the older jake. I love taylor, he did a good job, but with the small budget and limited time frame, its hard to cram in all the "digital buffing" to make him look older.

    I say STEVEN STRAIT ALL THE WAY! love you taylor, but if you gotta go, PLEASE DONT PUT THAT MICHAEL GUY IN!!!

    I agree with you SkylerZX, I love Taylor and totally think he should play Jacob but if their is re-casting.......Then they should deffinetly pick Steven Strait. I watched him in the covenant and the whole time he looked like an older Taylor.
  • SkylerZX · 11 months ago
    I usually don't like re-casting between sequals so I'd prefer probably perfer they stay with him. But if they have to change, I really really hope its Steve Strait, I honestly think he would play a good Jacob.

    Steven Strait!! Steven! Steven!


    But Michael look like Taylor...

    Ow... did you see? Almost a half want another actor. Taylor is too young!
  • Liz · 11 months ago
    Hey.. you don't have to be Team Jacob to be dedicated to Taylor! I'm proof of that :) I definitely prefer Edward but I'd still be heartbroken if they recast Taylor.

    I have to agree with Liz on that... I'm not particularly Team Jacob, but Taylor has made me see the light to that side. I would be heartbroken if they replaced him aswell. Its not right.

    Good point--I guess it does sound like I said that people not in that 7% aren't dedicated to Taylor--but I did make sure to put "truly" dedicated in italics. ;-)

    Hey, wasn't there a petition sent against casting Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen??? Maybe the least popular guy would be the best choice. I think Michael Copon should be the older Jacob Black. But he has to keep his mouth shut until the decision is made. I think him talking about it is hurting his image. Maybe his facebook profile was just promoting himself (like, hey look, I am the older Jacob, like I would be the best choice), and not really claiming that he got the role. Misinterpreted.

    I really think that Taylor Lautner is too baby-faced to play Jacob. They should remove him and put Michael Copon in. He is much taller and fits the part of jacob to the T. Jacob Black is supposed to be indian, and Steven Strait don't even look Indian. So I don't think they should even consider puttin him in new moon. I think that, for a lot of people, it's more about looks, and sex appeal, rather than how the character SHOULD actually look.

    taylor lautner is a good actor but i still think that he should be replaced. he looks way too young to play the role of jacob especially in new moon, eclipse and in breaking dawn. i mean he can be jacob in the movie, but the younger version, prior to his becoming a werewolf. jacob is supposed to look older due to the werewolves' growth spurt and taylor lautner won't be able to put on enough muscle in such a short span of time. plus he won't get any taller too. no offense to taylor's fans, this is just an opinion. :)

    Ben Barnes doesnt even look Indian! so why would they cast him if he looks nothing like the character Stephanie thought up???? Micheal Copon looks like Taylor, so it wouldnt be a total loss if Micheal played Jacob. and Micheal is 8 inches taller the Taylor. I want Taylor to play Jacob again becuase he had such good chemistry with Bella!!!!! but Micheal looks more like the Jacob in New Moon. I hear the Taylor Lautner gained 19 lbs for the roll of Jacob!

    Taylor is looking very buff these days, and he certainly looks older! I saw him when he hadn't quite completely shaved and he looked quite manly and sexy. I can definitely see him up against Rob. I'm Team Jacob so I'd go for Taylor though ;P

    Ok, I understand the need to stay with the original actor, but why couldn't they have cast Stephen Strait in the first place? Don't get me wrong, Taylor Lautner is probably a great actor (not that I've seen him in anything other than Twilight), but Stephen Strait is just.... SEXY.

    i love steven strait and i think he shoud be jacob becouse he is taller and maybe not stronger but like taylor he can make musles and i think that tylor is great and i love him too but steven is better for this role and after twilight and new moon (becouse we alredy know who is playing jacob) tylor will find many roles for next years
