About Taylor Lautner
Taylor Daniel Lautner, an American actor, voice actor, and model, was born on February 11, 1992. Her estimated net worth is $40 million.
One of the most contentious arguments of this age, between Team Edward and Team Jake, was centered on this handsome werewolf. Taylor Lautner had the foresight to seize upon a franchise that was spitting money even though he was only a young child. He became Hollywood’s highest-paid teen actor after transforming from a scrawny teen to a beefy hunk, and he also had hordes of screaming teenagers firmly in his grip.
Alongside Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, this werewolf was seen in the Twilight series flaunting his abs and his deadly teeth.
Taylor was a born fighter who was raised in the Midwest alongside his younger sister, Makena. Taylor started learning the martial arts when he was six, so it wasn’t of the bare-knuckle sort. The naturally strong and nimble boy, who was selected to train with seven-time karate world champion Michael Chaturantabut, picked up the art form quickly. Taylor won the gold medal and was crowned the Junior World Forms and Weapons Champion two years later, at the age of eight, when he was selected to represent the United States in the World Karate Association competition.
Taylor persisted in her training and competition, taking home three straight Junior World Championships. Taylor’s attention, however, shifted from the severe discipline of martial arts to posing for the cameras when a coach pushed him to try out for a Burger King commercial. Despite not getting the fast food job, Taylor started going to auditions and was given tiny parts in movies like Cheaper by the Dozen 2 and The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3-D as well as television shows like The Bernie Mac Show and Summerland.
His fate as a hairy four-legged beast of the night and the subject of every tween’s desire, however, would be sealed by the audition for a little independent vampire film. For the budding actor, Twilight would turn out to be more than just another “big break.” Taylor was cast in a supporting role as Jacob Black in the 2008 film box office wunderkind. Director Chris Weitz thought about recasting the part when his part in the second film, New Moon, was enlarged into a bigger character (both physically and symbolically). But Taylor showed his mettle by starting a rigorous training program that added almost 30 pounds of muscle to his frail frame. He was still Jake, and that was okay.
Robert Pattinson, who played Edward Cullen, had to share the limelight with the new hottie in Forks with the release of New Moon. Taylor was instantly propelled into cosmological renown, appearing on the walls of every young girl’s bedroom and becoming the focus of fan mob actions all across the world. And Taylor’s celebrity only increased with each new volume in the vampire series.
Taylor will take a break from shirtless revelry to star alongside Alfred Molina and Maria Bello in the 2011 thriller Abduction. Only a few short years have passed since he transitioned from a virtual nobody to a Hollywood star. We simply hope that his newfound fame won’t make him lose sight of his good looks.
