Taylor Lautner and Lily Collins met while filming the 2011 amnesiac thriller Abduction. The movie found Lautner's character discovering he was taken from his birth parents as a child with Collins co-starring as Karen Murphy, his friend who gets dragged into the madness, only for them to fall for each other throughout the course of the action.

The pair began dating while filming the movie. US Weekly confirmed that the two had ended their brief relationship barely after it had begun, and with only one week to go until the premiere no less. Despite Lautner having earlier spoken fondly about the instant chemistry between the two while filming, sources later claimed that the atmosphere at the Abduction wrap party was tense and that 'they barely said a word to one another'.

However, despite the off-set drama, Lautner's growing Twilight fanbase helped Abduction become a box office hit with $90 million return on a $35 million budget.
