Toronto – Edward better watch his sparkling back, because the Wolf Pack has arrived in town. Taylor Lautner, who portrays Jacob Black in the film adaptation of the of the Twilight series is welcoming four new members to to his tribe. Those familiar with the book will know that the Wolf Pack serve as Bella protectors while clashing with the vampires.
Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz, Kiowa Gordon, and Bronson Pelletier have taken up the mantle of the Wolf Pack, each one boasting Native American heritage, adding authenticity to the group, who in the book are made up of Washington’s Quileute tribe.
Fans who side with Jacob over Edward will be pleased to know that the werewolves have been pumping iron to get into astounding physical shape. Spending a good portion of the film shirtless, the actors had to endure less than idea conditions. That didn’t ruin their spirit though, Director Chris Weitz told USA Today “But they have all been good-natured. They show up on location in drenching, cold rain, and I say, ‘OK, off with the robes.’”
As for the transformations, don’t expect these buff bods to be covered in a fur coat. The werewolves themselves will be created using CG special effects to effectively nail down the scale and ferocity. Look closely though and fans will notice that each wolf will retain the eyes of the actor.
Catch the entire Wolf Pack when New Moon hits theaters November 20th, 2009.
