Where Is Taylor Lautner After Twilight?

Due to The Twilight Saga, Taylor Lautner became a teen idol and sex symbol, especially after extensively changing his physique to keep the role of Jacob Black in further Twilight installments, and generating media attention for his looks. In 2010, he was ranked second on Glamour's "The 50 Sexiest Men of 2010" list, and fourth on People's "Most Amazing Bodies" list. Also in the same year, Lautner was named the highest-paid teenage actor in Hollywood. Then, what happened?

Unfortunately, Twilight's astonishing box-office revenue proved to be detrimental to the young star's future earning potential. It's the subject of a new article in The Hollywood Reporter titled "The New A-List: What Went Wrong With Taylor Lautner's Career?"

Post-Twilight, he Lautner has appeared in 2015’s The Ridiculous 6 and has had roles on the TV series Cuckoo and Scream Queens. The one leading-man role that did come to fruition, in 2011's Abduction, was critically panned and only earned $82 million worldwide.
