‘The LA Times’ Takes Us Behind The Scenes Of ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’
LA Times photographer David Strick was granted access to the Vancouver, BC set of The Twilight Saga: New Moon and was able to snap some pretty fantastic photos. Here is but one of the fab photos Strick managed to snap of shirtless Twilight star Taylor Lautner for the LA Times‘ Hollywood Backlot … behold:

Oh, the squeals of delight are in the air again. “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” will be released on November 20, and tickets are selling quickly … way in advance! Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner return to the supernatural world of vampires and werewolves in this sequel to the uber popular “Twilight.” David Strick was on the set about 15-20 minutes outside of Vancouver as director Chris Weitz and the cast and crew shot scenes late at night, in a very chilly Capilano Park Forest, until at least 4 a.m.
Oh people … there is MUCH more where this came from. Not only was Strick able to snap more hawt photos of shirtless Lautner but he also managed to shoot a few cool-looking photos of Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson as well — but honesty, it’s the shirtless snaps that are the real draw. After the jump, check out a few more photos …

Damn, these are some beautiful photos, no? This is a great look at New Moon, I think, one that really makes the movie seem more interesting. I’m curious to see how much time Taylor Lautner clocks on screen sans shirt … any guesses?

Amazing pictures! Every one! And DAYUM Taylor- that just isn’t right!
September 21st, 2009 at 2:01 pm
A 17yr old old just shouldn’t be looking like that o_O

Taylor looks like he took steroids. He’s too short for those muscles.
Give me Edward!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 21st, 2009 at 2:12 pm
I think he had just a tiny bit of help with drawn on abs..Don’t get me wrong, I know this kid has some crazy muscles going on, but they must have wanted them more defined..It’s crazy that he’s so built! Though it’s still not enough to make me pay to see this movie.. ;)
September 21st, 2009 at 2:12 pm
Note to self: He’s only 16. He’s only 16. He’s only 16…
September 21st, 2009 at 2:17 pm
What a superficial bunch is hanging here! So the muscles are making the person and not something called an intersting personality?
September 21st, 2009 at 2:19 pm
Robert and Kristen are the only interesting one. That last pic is dreamy.
September 21st, 2009 at 2:35 pm
looking at these photos makes me just more impatient to see the movie…
September 21st, 2009 at 2:37 pm
It’s rare to see Edward or is this Rob smiling?
September 21st, 2009 at 2:38 pm
Love Robert.
Kristen is pretty too.

poor taylor must be freezing! i’m re-reading new moon right now, and as soon as he becomes a werewolf he’s pretty much shirtless the whole time because of their high body temp. he is wayyy too sexy for a 16/17 year old. *sigh*
September 21st, 2009 at 3:08 pm
I know people get grossed out for thinking Taylor is “hot” because he’s young but it’s kind of nauseating to reference his age all the time… but I can understand how it would bother some. Though, I think it’s a little ridiculous and gross(er) for people to make a website about him and count down the days until he’s legal. Sick.
September 21st, 2009 at 3:09 pm
haha of course we’re superficial about this stuff! What else can we be? It’s not like we actually know them! Or, I’m sorry, do you have a personal relationship with Taylor Lautner and thus can comment on his amazing personality? hahahaha

@Meagan
He’s 17.. the countdown is on until he turns 18 in Feb!
September 21st, 2009 at 3:55 pm
OMG!!! I can’t wait until he turns 18, so I won’t feel guilt admiring all that lush…I’m soooo Team Jacob…..I’ll take HOT and alive over cold dead marble anyday.
September 21st, 2009 at 4:29 pm
I don’t care if I am old enough to be his mother – yummy
September 21st, 2009 at 4:35 pm
That’s it, I’m switching to Team Jacob (well Team Taylor, I guess. hot damn.) Too bad Kellan didn’t get in the shirtlessness action in these pics. ;)
Oh, and Kendra, I wouldn’t be surprised if you were right about his abs being embellished. Rob’s definitely were.
September 21st, 2009 at 4:52 pm
omg thank you so much for sharing these trent!
i hope taylor is prepared for superstardom, it’s right around the corner for him…
team jacob!!
September 21st, 2009 at 5:18 pm
Damn! That is so freaking hot! That kid is just…. unfair!
And look at Robert’s smile, to die for!
September 21st, 2009 at 5:25 pm
OH man I cannot wait!! I bought my New Moon tickets today for the midnight showing!! woop woop!
September 21st, 2009 at 6:47 pm
why. can’t i stop drooling. aah.
September 22nd, 2009 at 2:24 am
I don’t care that he isn’t “legal”…its not like I’m actually going to jump his bones!
Anyway, hes nice to look at! :D
September 22nd, 2009 at 7:10 am
I want to touch his abs SO BAD. If he were legal this would feel a bit more right
DAYUM.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:14 pm
I have always hated Pattinson as Edward. TEAM JACOB FTW!!
September 22nd, 2009 at 2:04 pm
I’m only 16, so I feel no shame in drooling over Taylor!!! Seriously, day-um!!! ;)
September 23rd, 2009 at 2:40 pm
Wow. You can tell that there is some make up work to make those abs look more defined but either way I would totally be going to jail because he is f’in hot.
