Taylor Lautner a ‘Martial Arts prodigy’, says co-star Jason Isaacs

Eclipse star Taylor Lautner, whom co-star Elizabeth Reaser called the fittest person she had ever seen, doesn’t simply boast of good looks but an excellent physique too. He is seen doing a lot of running and jumping in thriller Abduction. "He’s a martial arts prodigy," Metro quoted co-star Jason Isaacs as saying "Even at 11 he looked like Bruce Lee. He’s a phenomenon; he’s like a gold-medal gymnast."

So how was Jason looking forward to doing these action scenes with a skilled martial arts expert like Lautner?

“He’s been doing karate since he was six!" says Jason. "I’ve done 10 kickboxing lessons. Hollywood decided he is the latest action hero apparently, and I’m there in this film to make him look even more muscular. And I’ll do that.”

Nevertheless, it has been unusually taxing for the 18-year old eclipse hunk. He had to undergo grueling sessions of boxing and fighting for the action-packed scenes in Abduction.

Taylor says, "I’ve been training. I did boxing training for a couple months. Now I’m into the fight training, motorcycle. I’ll do a little swimming training. It’s all-around. It’s going to be a lot of fun." 

So where are the girls? "There are hundreds of teenage girls camping out to meet him that have to be held back by barriers," Isaacs reveals.
