Michael Copon: I’m Not Jacob Black…Yet

Hoping for the role of a lifetime, Michael Copon opened up to PopStar.com and dished about becoming a part of the Twilight empire.

The 26-year-old former One Tree Hill bad boy cleared up all the rumors floating around the internet about filling Taylor Lautner’s shoes in the role of Jacob Black. He shared, “I think that it is pretty clear that there are huge rumors going around the Internet about me up for the role as Jacob Black. At this point, they are only rumors. There are a lot of opinions going around on the Internet about this role. It is definitely a role of a lifetime and I would love to have that chance.”

WHAT DO YOU THINK about Michael taking over as Jacob Black?

if only summit could read these comments they would see the majority of people want taylor to stay as jacob! seriously if they replace him they are going to have a lot of angry fans on their hands and they will lose more than they will gain.

No, No, No, No.
I’m sorry but he is a huge NO!

He doesn’t have the Jacob material at all.
I seriouly hope Summit keeps Taylor.
He has the smile, the energy, the presence, he is perfect for Jacob Black.
Taylor has a passion for the character, and I bet Michael doesn’t.
Summit, NEEDS TO KEEP TAYLOR, THAT IS ALL!

Plus, to me, Michael is not attractive, but I get that some people may think he is.
If I wants to be in the movie so badly, he can be Paul.
I just hope Summit stop this rumours, and choose Taylor.
I’m going to be devastaded if they don’t choose him.

I don’t like this guy…i found him really annoying as Felix in season 2 of one tree hilll…..but that might also mean that he’s a good actor…..still i don’t want him to play jacob…..i liked taylor but he’s too small for the massive jacob in new moon…
i hope they chose steven strait….he’d have great chemistry with Kristen Stewart

I am not out looking for a pretty face. I want a good actor, who can actually act.
An actor who resemble or is a native person, and who can wear a proper wig!
All the other native guys from twilight were properly chosen. Why this thing cannot be done for Jacob?
I hop Weitz does justice to this character.

Taylor is the best. I lot of twilight fans felt in love with Jacob because Taylor, He gain our heart with a fews scenes in Twilight. Now we want TAYLOR all the way. Of course everybody wants to be JACOB NOW!!! after TWILIGHT but TAYLOR EARN IT!

TAYLOR = JACOB

You people are stupid. Jacob Black is supposed to like, double in size, and look five years older in New Moon. Do you think Taylor can pull that off? No. I don’t even think this dude is a good choice. I say Steven Strait all the way.

How exactly is Taylor perfect as Jacob? Is Jacob supposed to be shorter than Bella? How do you suggest they make him that much taller and older looking for the new movie? Just read the books, for crying out loud! It’s just not possible to have read them and still think Taylor is right for the role of Jacob in New Moon.

THEY SHOULD KEEP TAYLOR!

Seriously. Hes just perfect for the part. JUST BUFF HIM UP A LITTLE. Problem solved. GEEZ.

Jacob is one of the main roles in New Moon, if they decide to drop Taylor, theyre gonna be screwed, man. Obviously the crazed fans already love Taylor as Jacob Black.

NOO!! they just cant replace taylor as jacob!!
I read the books after knwoing he was jacob nd the face has stuck¬ i love taylor as jacob..THEY CAN’T REPLACE HIM!!!
Just noo…taylor has a huge fanbase, and most people would say hes hotter than rob pattinson, so taylor sttarcts alot of people to this movie…and if they were to replace him it would just be wrong!

Jacob in New Moon looks a lot older than he did in Twilight.
By the end of his transformation, even he says he’s closer to looking 25 than he is to 16… not to mention his height which makes him taller than Edward (supposedly).

Taylor just doesn’t have that height, nor the look of a 25 year old.
Why spend cash on special effects to make him look older, when you can get an actor that will look the part without it ?

I say Yes to Michael!
