In fact, the only werewolf played by a non-Indigenous actor is Jacob, played by Taylor Lautner -– though Lautner claims he has some Indigenous ancestry somewhere in his family tree. Movies starring Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, fan groups (Twihards), and a whole lot of merchandise followed. Eclipse also includes a cameo from Byron Chief-Moon, an Aboriginal Canadian actor and dancer. Parents need to know that Twilight is the first book of a series that brought the vampire-romance genre back from the undead in 2005. Gil Birmingham appears as Jacob's father, Billy, in the first four films, while Chaske Spencer, Kiowa Gordon, Tyson Houseman, Alex Meraz, and Bronson Pelletier come in as the first group of werewolves in New Moon, with Eclipse adding Julia Jones and Booboo Stewart as the Clearwater siblings. There are some scenes with 'blood and romantic kissing,' according to an expert review. Not only is Twilight one of the few popular sci-fi-fantasy franchises to feature Indigenous people as major characters, it actually cast Indigenous actors, who traditionally don't get a ton of work, in those roles. Parents need to know that, while some stuff in this book is very mild for the fantasy genre, this is a vampire romance. Released annually from 2005 through 2008, the four novels chart the later teen years of Bella Swan, a girl who moves to Forks, Washington, from Phoenix, Arizona and falls in love with a 104-year-old vampire.
One of the coolest things about the Twilight movies upping their action content is the increased screen time for the actors playing Jacob's pack of werewolves (though admittedly, they spend most of their action scenes as wolves rendered by shaky CGI). Twilight is a series of four fantasy romance novels, two companion novels, and one novella written by American author Stephenie Meyer.
