With the opening of the new installment of the Twilight series, Jacob gets thrust into the spotlight while Edward takes a step back. This is creating a rift between Twilight fans into two camps: team Edward and team Jacob.
Why Jacob is popular among New Moon fans
Jacob only got the attention of the majority of moviegoers when he started getting ripped and buffed for his role in the second installment of the saga. This was originally written as the way to introduce Bella to the ‘Cold Ones’ writers and the director, not to mention that the fans liked him so much that his character was given a major role.
Why Edward is popular among New Moon fans
One of the main characters of New Moon, Edward drew the attraction of Twilight fans with his mystery and his charisma. The fact that he is a vampire obviously added to his appeal to most of the women fans of the series.
The growing popularity of New Moon
This second installment has grown to be more popular than the first. Riding on the coattails of the success of Twilight, New Moon has developed a momentum of its own with the emergence of new major characters like the hunky Jacob.
