Only one more day until "Twilight" superstar Taylor Lautner graces MTV News with his hunky presence for "MTV First: Taylor Lautner," which premieres on air and online Wednesday at 7:56 p.m. ET. The 19-year-old star will exclusively debut the first trailer from his upcoming action/thriller "Abduction," after which the conversation will move to MTV.com where Lautner will sit down with MTV News' Josh Horowitz for a 30-minute interview.
If you Lautner fans weren't already excited about this exclusive event, we've got a little sneak peek of what you'll be privy to when you tune in and log on for our latest "MTV First." During the interview, Lautner discusses the similarities and inevitable comparisons between his confused young character, Nathan Price, and Jason Bourne.
"I would say Nathan Price's journey takes place before Jason Bourne's started," Lautner explained. "When Jason realized, when he was searching for his true identity, he was already a trained expert."
How about Nathan vs. Jason — who would win? "I think Nathan would need a little more training," Lautner said. "Give him a couple years, and we'll get there."
Lautner's co-star Lily Collins recently offered her thoughts on the Bourne comparisons, giving major props to Lautner for his work on the film.
"[He is] very Jason Bourne-esque, of course, with his own twist on it," Collins explained to MTV News of Taylor's character in the film. "It's a complete departure from Jacob. Obviously I'm in the movie so I'm biased, but I think it's going to completely shock his fans, and people that necessarily don't know him very well as Jacob that aren't 'Twilight' fans. I think he brings an aspect people haven't seen yet and [it's] very, very exciting."
