Taylor Lautner just revived the Twilight feud after 12 years, and fans can’t handle it, all thanks to his take on Instagram trend

Don’t we love it when our favourite stars are trying to keep their fans updated. For example, sharing pictures on Instagram, and hopping on trends. And thanks to the internet, actor Taylor Lautner is back in the spotlight, and this time, it’s not for his Twilight abs—it’s for his hilariously relatable sense of humour. The actor, who famously played werewolf Jacob Black, took fans on a nostalgic ride with his clever take on the viral “camera flip” trend on Instagram.

Taylor Lautner Instagram reel

His reel starts with a fan-favourite scene from Breaking Dawn: Part 1: Bella Swan’s wedding to Edward Cullen. Lautner cheekily captions the clip, “Honestly, screw Edward. Bella should have ended up with Jacob.” Just when viewers thought he was airing his Twilight grievances, he flipped the camera, revealing himself with a faux shocked expression, yelling, “No, no, no!” as if caught in the act.

Twilight fans react

Fans couldn’t stop laughing, flooding the comments with gems like, “Okay, Jacob, we forgive you,” and “This wins the internet today.” Some even declared him the undisputed king of the trend, which challenges participants to humorously reveal their own bias. I mean, it is hitting all the right nostalgic notes. Lautner’s playful jab at the Twilight love triangle reignited the eternal Team Jacob vs. Team Edward debate, proving that even over a decade later, the fandom is still very much alive.

The Twilight series

From 2008 to 2012, the Twilight saga dominated pop culture, and Lautner’s portrayal of the love-struck werewolf vying for Bella Swan’s heart remains iconic. While Bella ultimately chose Edward, Lautner’s recent Instagram post has fans revisiting the heartbreak and humour of Jacob’s unrequited love story.?Beyond the laughs, Lautner’s video reminds us why Twilight holds a special place in our hearts. It was more than a vampire vs. werewolf saga—it was a cultural phenomenon that gave us unforgettable memes, intense fandom wars, and characters we still love to root for.

This playful moment from Lautner isn’t just a throwback; it’s a masterclass in self-awareness and staying relevant. Whether you’re Team Edward, Team Jacob, or just here for the memes, one thing is clear: Taylor Lautner still knows how to howl his way into our hearts.

To all our favourites, keep hoping on these fun trends, because these little surprises definitely make our day.
