Stephenie herself confirmed it today on her website - Taylor Lautner has been officially chosen to play Jacob Black in the upcoming movie version of New Moon.
Director Chris Weitz says that Taylor was "emotionally right" for the part and will be bringing a lot of depth to the character of Jacob Black.
Stephenie goes on to endorse the selection, stating that she was very much part of the decision.
One thing is sure...this is likely to assure Taylor of superstardom...
