Zac Efron in GOLD (2022) I did my part, I protected it!

“But here’s the one thing about High School Musical, that a lot of people forget or don’t realize. It affected a lot of people, its resonance, culturally, was massive … and at the same time, it was in every sense of it, the luckiest break in the world. The wrong thing to do—and that’s what all these interviews now are trying to get me to say— is to turn on it, to like shit on it, call it crap. But that’s insane. There are hundreds of people who began doing one thing when they were younger, who go on to develop and refine and shape their vision, as they get older, and other concerns—like fame, or money, take a back seat to other ones.”

— Zac Efron, Flaunt Magazine | April 2013 

👀 This one show host - it’s on YT (but, has to be taken with a grain of salt though cause sometimes people exaggerate) said ‘The Greatest Beer Run’ script is/was “so good”, “wild” and “adventure” and the friendship theme of the story is good too. She read the script back then cause her agent got her the audition for Zac’s mom in the film. Hopefully she’s right in her description.

They’re also releasing it during the Fall … Which is usually when a lot of award suitor films come out… IIRC

Peter won an Oscar so he does have a bit sway, as long as the script is really that gravitating, it sounds like it has high chances.

Nonetheless the summary description has interested me for awhile, so I’ll be interested whether it gets any Noms or not.

Hyppppedddd!

"He was awesome. That guy is a machine. He doesn't stop! And he really busted his ass in the ring, man! He was really cool. Really cool to work with. I can't say anything bad about him. He brought it EVERY single time. I remember one time he wasn't feeling good, he was a little hurt and they're like, 'hey, we got you a double' (for him), and he was like, 'no, no! I'm gonna do it!' And he just powered through it! I was like, 'bro!' I had to like stop him. This is a wide angle, 'I don't need you in there, let me get you out of there.' He was like, 'no! It's not gonna look good' and I'm like, 'bro, I swear- I don't need you' I had to talk him out of it.... But that's Zac. He's a work horseman."

East High is having friends we’ll keep for the rest of our lives, and that means we really are ‘all in this together’. Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat!”

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3 (October 24th, 2008) dir. Kenny Ortega

High school musical 3: senior year || inspirations and visual references

We’re aspiring to do the big broadway musical numbers, big movie musical numbers, to do them like the great choreographers and directors: Gene Kelly, Bob Fosse, Jerome Robbins and Michael Kidd - Kenny Ortega, director

He [Ortega] really wanted to reintroduce kids to everything about musical film and musical theatre. We all agreed that if we’re going to introduce kids to the song and the dance of the classic Hollywood and Broadway period, why not try to introduce them to a bit of the stagecraft of that time as well?“ - Mark Hofeling, production designer

Footlight parade (1933) dir. Busby Berkeley, Lloyd Bacon / chgph. Busby Berkeley Royal Wedding (1951) dir. Stanley Donen / chgph. Nick Castle Singin’ in the rain (1952) dir. Gene Kelly, Stanley Donen / chgph. Gene Kelly West Side Story (1961) dir. Robert Wise, Jerome Robbins / chgph. Jerome Robbins Seven brides for seven brothers (1964) dir. Stanley Donen / chgph. Michael Kidd Sweet Charity (1966) dir. and chgph. Bob Fosse Chicago (2002) dir. and chgph. Rob Marshall Grease (1978) dir. Randal Kleiser / chgph. Patricia Birch Material Girl (1985) dir. Mary Lambert / chgph. Kenny Ortega Saturday Night Fever (1977) dir. John Badham / chgph. Lester Wilson Gentlemen prefer blondes (1953) dir. Howard Hawks / chgph. Jack Cole

So....

I’m not saying that Kenny Ortega has a ‘type’ when choosing his leading male but…

All I’m saying is that I may have a type since I’m pretty sure I had a crush on all these guys! 

But Ben’s still my favorite!
