Zac Efron is Richard Samuels

Zac Efron is Richard Samuels

Zac Efron has been confirmed to star in Me and Orson Welles, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Zac was spotted reading the Me and Orson Welles screenplay back in August.

The film is set in 1937 and the story centers on high school student Richard Samuels (Efron). While strolling the streets of New York, Samuels happens upon the yet-to-open Mercury Theatre and is noticed by its mercurial founder, Orson Welles (Christian McKay). The man lands a bit part in Julius Caesar, the production that catapulted Welles to the top, and spends the next week learning about life and love.

Welles will shoot mid-February and March in New York, London and the Isle of Man. Disney’s High School Musical 3: Senior Year will begin filming April 21st.

Love him! Wow he’ll be in NY and London filming this one. Good for him. Maybe a change of scenery is what he needs to finally cut out of the Disney mold and hit the big screen again like he did in HAIRSPRAY.
It will probably be a welcome relief from all the paps!
Wonder how many of his leading ladies he will fall in love with over the course of these films.

He doesn’t want to do sex scenes because everyone will know that he has a rubber Ann Summers ******* where his genitals are supposed to be. Let the man keep his pride you heartless ********.

Get your mind out of the gutter long enough to see that what you say is false :)

Steph is right.

Even Jared doesn’t go on other sites and put them down. If you want to promote your site, that’s fine, but please don’t do it by being disrespectful to Jared.

Don’t forget, he has the power to block you from his site, just as you now have the power to delete/block negative comments from your site.

It was meant as a light hearted poke, we’re excited about our site. *shrugs* sorry if you took it as disrespectful.

No worries audrey… just trying to be fair. Glad to know your site is doing well.. :)

Finally a movie without all those little disney girls hanging on him. Hope they soon part ways for good so both he and V can pursue careers without worrying about all this Hollywood gossip stuff.

None of us are naive enough to think this teenage romance will last when HSM#3 is done. Both will move on to bigger and better things. Couples come and go in Hollywood like yesterday’s news once they become famous and lose their innocence.

he’s so gorgeous.

Ewww……
how many movies is he singning onto? hsm3 was supposed to be fliming now but he has been in the hospital and it is in april!!!!

YAAYY FOR THE ISLE OF MANNN!
