Taylor Lautner Reveals Twilight Caused Him Decades of Body Image Issues

So many people who watched the Twilight franchise have fallen in love with the stories and characters, especially with Taylor Lautner. He played werewolf Jacob Black in all 5 Twilight saga movies, showing his hot, muscular body. But it turns out that he was under a lot of pressure, and now he reveals what is behind his look.

There has been a huge Before/After for him.

Taylor Lautner played the role of Jacob Black in the Twilight franchise, and his physical modification for the role was well-known, as he underwent a significant physical change to portray the character’s transformation from a teenage boy to a werewolf.

At first, he didn’t realize that there would come a time for him when his body image would cause problems.

After filming the Twilight Saga, Taylor Lautner talked how topics of body image are often connected with women, “being viewed as having this unbelievable body” was difficult for him. “When I was in it, when I was 16 through 20 years old, starring in this franchise where my character is known for taking his shirt off every other second, no, I did not know that it was affecting me or going to affect me in the future with body image.”

“But now, looking back at it, of course, it did, and of course, it was going to.”
