Zac Efron is Richard Samuels

love him soo muchh
i can’t wait to see this film

YEAAAAH, I LOVE U ZAC,
WELL DONE

Hope he is feeling better these days.

It is also good to hear that he will be getting away from the HSM frenzy and expanding his career in other types of films. Through Disney he became recognized, but if he is going to be accepted as a truly adult actor he needs these other gigs.

Good Luck to Zac. He seems like a fine young man who wants to be seen as more then just a pretty face.

sexual assignment surgery. he sure needs it!

Another movie together sounds like a good idea but maybe wait a year or two. Maybe a storyline similar to the movie “Love Story” or “Sleepless in Seattle” or even ” Love Affair” or even ” Against All Odds”

thats great news……well done zac…….
we will wait……….take care

Erica,

I was thinking the same thing earlier about Zac and Vanessa in a Titanic or something similar type film or a military type film like Purple Hearts or Officer and a Gentleman . Zac would be awesome in a uniform. I’d love to see him with a crew cut too. I’m biased though cuz my husband is in the Army and I love military guys.

Im so proud of him. He really deserves this. Can’t wait when he starts filming.

The description of the book “Me and Orson Welles” from Publisher’s Weekly: (Zac’s character’s going to have MORE THAN ONE love interest! - wonder who’ll be cast as the females? - who would you like to see?)

“This is the story of one week in my life. I was seventeen. It was the week I slept in Orson Welles’s pajamas. It was the week I fell in love. It was the week I fell out of love.” Thus does the precocious protagonist of Kaplow’s first adult novel summarize his adventures as a bit-part player in the landmark 1937 Mercury Theater production of Julius Caesar that helped catapult the 22-year-old Welles to the top of the entertainment world. Kaplow wastes no time setting up his unlikely scenario; after an impromptu sidewalk audition, Richard Samuels, a New Jersey high school student, lands the part of Lucius, a minor character. The conceit forms a nice counterpoint to the coming-of-age material, as Kaplow alternates scenes about Samuels’s high school and home life with a series of rehearsal passages that bring the brilliant but mercurial Welles to life. Samuels falls in love more than once: first with fellow high school actress Caroline, then with a lovely, flighty production assistant named Sonja who is also involved with Welles, and finally with Gretta, an aspiring writer. The climax features a colorful showdown between Samuels and Welles after the boy confronts the married Welles about his affair with Sonja.

That’s a good film ruined. Shame.

he freaks me out big time….very very strange little boy.

I love Zac efron

Do you think zac is going to do orson and welles.
I’m not sure if that is a smart thing to do.
Because he already has seventeen and high school musical 3
and maybe even footloose.
I think he has to do it more carefully.
Otherwise people are going to think: “O, it’s that zac efron guy again, don’t you think.
I mean vanessa is doing it carefully, and most people are really excited about it.
What do you all think?
Don’t get me wrong I’m a big zanessa fan.

***-
Zac will get a chance to work with Richard Linklater on this one. He’s an esteemed director/writer. That probably sealed the deal for Zac. Actors are very capable of doing 3-4 movies a year without burning out.

#56 I don’t think “Footloose” was ever anything more then just a rumor. And he is definitely going to do “Me and Orson Welles” that’s the point of this post its confirmed. I only wonder how and if his recuperation time will affect this schedule, I mean he’s young and healthy but he’s still only human.
