Currently, the Twilight films are available on Netflix for streaming, giving fans who subscribe a chance to revisit the widely-loved vampire saga. This has apparently reminded many people, including Taylor Lautner and his wife, also named Taylor Lautner, to watch the series again. In a recent interview, Taylor’s wife shared her thoughts on watching her husband portray the handsome werewolf character, Jacob Black. I found her comments particularly endearing.
Since 2018, the Lautners have been a couple, eventually getting married in 2022. Interestingly, despite being together for all that time, they never managed to watch the Twilight movies together. It’s amusing because while Taylor Lautner was transforming into Jacob and filming those blockbuster films, his future spouse was a devoted fan of the series, rooting for Edward. Here’s what transpired when they finally watched them together as a couple, as told by Lautner’s wife:
In a moment that touched me deeply, I experienced a sweet emotion. To illustrate, in Eclipse, during the scene where Taylor is caring for Kristen inside the tent, there’s a close-up shot of his face, revealing a small scar on his forehead from childhood chickenpox. This minor detail about him, this tiny scar, has a special place in my affection.
During an episode of their wellness podcast, The Squeeze, the duo shared that they watched all the movies together and had a fantastic experience doing so. Taylor Lautner mentioned that it was his first time watching them as a simple fan, allowing him to step away from being one of the main actors.
For her, who had never considered her husband and Jacob Black as the same kind of person, she eventually managed to link them in her thoughts, which was an emotional moment for her. She went on to say…
“Seeing you as 17 brought back memories of Taylor, a favorite aspect of her face for me. It was moving because at that time, you were 17 and now you’re 32. It evoked strong emotions in me.”
It’s seldom that a spouse gets to glimpse part of their partner’s teenage life, unless they knew each other back then or have old home videos stashed away in their parents’ attic. As Taylor Lautner’s wife mentioned, she had never considered him as Jacob Black before, but when they recently watched the movies together, a specific detail in his facial close-ups made all the difference for her.
In that scene from “Eclipse,” the moment struck a chord, making her feel as though she was encountering her husband 15 years in the past. For a profound understanding, I recommend watching their entire interaction on YouTube.
As a movie enthusiast, I must say that story was absolutely delightful! Even the Lautners themselves were taken aback by their enjoyment of the films. Intriguingly enough, the Twilight heartthrob confessed he particularly relished the last two movies, derived from Breaking Dawn. Frankly speaking, I’m still captivated by that mind-blowing ending twist!
Next in line, it seems Taylor Lautner is planning to venture into television for a unique supernatural series focusing on werewolves. Interestingly enough, he and his spouse are considering watching the Lord of the Rings and Star Wars films for the first time as a couple!
