Taylor Lautner, perhaps best known for his role as Jacob ****** in the Twilight movies, is set to return to his glory days of werewolves (sadly, no vampires have been confirmed) in the newly announced upcoming

series Taylor Lautner: Vampire Hunter.





Let’s face it, while Lautner has gone on to feature in a few movies and TV series since his breakout role as ****** (Grown Ups 2, The Ridiculous 6, Home Team), he is definitely remembered most as part of the will-they-won’t-they love triangle between a werewolf, a vampire, and an infuriatingly moody teenage girl.
