Taylor Lautner hilariously reignites the Edward vs. Jacob debate from ‘Twilight’

CNN — Actor Taylor Lautner is reviving the “Twilight” saga love triangle debate of the late aughts in a very 2024 way. Bella should’ve ended up with Jacob.” A scene from 2012’s “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1” movie, where Edward and Bella get married, is playing in the background of the video until Lautner’s camera flips and he pretends to have mistakenly revealed himself as the person behind the video. Lautner’s video was his spin on a viral social media trend where the user offers seemingly anonymous advice or notions of self-flattery only to eventually reveal themselves as the creator of the video. The five “Twilight” movies, based on Stephenie Meyer’s fantasy-romance book series of the same name, were fueled by the love triangle between werewolf Jacob, vampire Edward and human Bella, which at the time spurred a heated debate over who the female protagonist should be with in the end.
