Nothing in Hollywood is guaranteed and it seems being a part of the super successful film ‘Twilight’ doesn’t mean you will be granted that same role in the next film, as hottie Taylor Lautner is finding out. For the sequel, ‘New Moon’ Lautner has to beef up his body to play the part of Jacob Black the werewolf and the actor is currently meeting with new director, Chris Weitz, to prove his abilities.

“I have been working out. I’ve been working out since the day we finished filming Twilight. I just weighed myself today; I’ve put on 19 lbs.,” Lautner told MTV on Wednesday night at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Salute to Young Hollywood.

Lautner is currently in competition for the part with actor Michael Copon of ‘Scorpion King 2′.
