Actor Taylor Lautner is reviving the “Twilight” saga love triangle debate of the late aughts in a very 2024 way.
In a hilarious video, Lautner pretended to write in the voice of an irate internet dweller: “Honestly screw Edward. Bella should’ve ended up with Jacob.”
A scene from 2012’s “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1” movie, where Edward (Robert Pattinson) and Bella (Kristen Stewart) get married, is playing in the background of the video until Lautner’s camera flips and he pretends to have mistakenly revealed himself as the person behind the video.
“Oops,” he wrote in the caption.
Lautner’s video was his spin on a viral social media trend where the user offers seemingly anonymous advice or notions of self-flattery only to eventually reveal themselves as the creator of the video.
The video was posted to Lautner’s TikTok page, so there was never any mistaking who was behind it. Still, it’s proven to resonate.
His video, as of Sunday, has drawn over 80 million views.
