Taylor Lautner talks about the Jacob/Edward rivalry

Taylor Lautner turned down X-Men

There was a rumor a couple of weeks ago that Taylor Lautner was up for a role in X-Men: First Class. It turns out the reason that Taylor was not cast was because he was too busy! Director Bryan Singer says they wanted him in the film.

Taylor Lautner has turned down a part in X-Men: First Class.
Despite being offered a prominent role by X-Men producer Bryan Singer, the Twilight hunk has been forced to decline the part due to other work commitments.
Singer explained: “I wanted Taylor to do it, I really did. He’s doing a movie in Pittsburgh called Abduction, and then he’s got the next Twilight movie.”
He added: “We talked about it a lot. He is a friend. And I really wanted to make it work. It just doesn’t look like it’s possible to do it.”
Having shot to fame in the Twilight Saga, Lautner also recently revealed that it is not just teenage girls who are huge fans of his.

Taylor Lautner Surprises Fans At A Pittsburgh High School!

Taylor Lautner is currently in Pittsburgh filming his new movie Abduction. Taylor has been filming at Hampton High School, and gave fans a special treat!
There have been numerous fans camped out in a field at Hampton High, waiting to catch a glimpse of the Eclipse actor.
Taylor gave the fans a surprise on Monday by taking a break to go over to where the fans have been camping out and signing autographs and posing for pictures!

“It was amazing,” Hampton graduate Chelsea Waldschmidt told See and Be Seen. “I actually got so close to him I touched him.”
Waldschmidt said she and about 100 other girls were watching Lautner film a scene outside the school, which included him riding a motorcycle and driving in an SUV. “All of a sudden the SUV came over to where the crowd was standing and he [Lautner] got out and said, ‘Hey, what’s up guys?’ Everyone started going crazy,” Waldschmidt said. Despite all of the excitement, which included paparazzi from national media outlets, Waldschmidt said Lautner remained calm and wasn’t in any hurry to leave. “I’ve never met a celebrity, so it was really cool. I didn’t expect him to be so nice. He didn’t even have any security with him,” Waldschmidt said.

It seems that The Twilight Saga: Eclipse stars Booboo Stewart ("Seth Clearwater") and Kellan Lutz ("Emmett Cullen") are teaming up for more than just the red carpet of the DoSomething Awards.
According to Anime News Network, the two are set to work together on an animated DVD film called Guardians Of Luna. Stewart is set to portray "Jake Segerstrom," and the film will be a "dark-action" finished in the fall of 2011.
Booboo Stewart confirmed his involvement (as well as Kellan Lutz's) with the project on Twitter yesterday.
The film has already set up an official website and Facebook page (links thanks to ANN) as well as a Twitter page.
On the Facebook page, the plot of Guardians Of Luna is described as follows:

Carson Stone has come to Steelhenge looking for answers about his lineage, driven by a mysterious letter from his father. What he doesn't realize is that the city bears an ancient curse. With each full moon, the city is terrorized by a pack of vicious werewolves. City leaders plan to harness the ancient power which has summoned the werewolf menace, and Carson becomes embroiled in a battle to defend it, joining forces with three other werewolves.
