Remember 2006? That was the year that High School Musical came out, and so did Lance Bass. The very first tweet was tweeted, and Miley Cyrus was just some actress on a new Disney Channel show.
In this strange and innocent time, NBC dropped a (then) totally unique pilot into its mix of programming. It was a superhero show – but one without any recognizable names, like Superman or Batman. It was an ensemble show, but it was also high-budget. And, two years before The Dark Knight declared superheroes to be serious business, it challenged the audience to really think about what it might mean if average, ordinary people developed superhuman abilities.
The show, of course, was Heroes.

Get your tissues ready: “The Iron Claw” will be available to stream on Max on May 10.
The A24 biographical sports drama debuted in theaters on Dec. 22 and received critical acclaim. Starring Zac Efron, Sean Durkin’s latest feature is based on the Von Erich wrestling dynasty, who suffered a series of tragic deaths in the family. Efron plays Kevin Von Erich, alongside Jeremy Allen White as Kerry Von Erich, Harris Dickinson as David Von Erich, Stanley Simons as Mike Von Erich and Holt McCallany as patriarch Fritz Von Erich. Lily James plays Kevin’s wife Pam Adkisson and Maura Tierney plays matriarch Doris Von Erich.
Efron famously packed on pounds of muscle to portray the professional wrestler. “That necessity to be perfect — it became an obsession,” he told Variety for his December cover story. “It was a singular focus for months. And your life goes out the window during prep.

Zac Efron once had a much-talked about love scene with on-screen partner Nicole Kidman in The Paperboy. Efron’s ex-partner, Michelle Rodriguez, was one of many who saw the feature. And she was as candid as usual about her thoughts.

Rodriguez confided that she enjoyed The Paperboy, although that didn’t seem to be the popular opinion at the time. The movie was a Matthew McConaughey-led picture directed by Lee Daniels, and featured several stars including John Cusack and David Oyelowo. Despite its star-power, the movie received mixed-reviews that leaned over to the negative. But Rodriguez didn’t care for the critics’ opinion.

Ricky Stanicky is a film starring Zac Efron. Jermaine Fowler, Andrew Santino and John Cena. It is directed by Peter Farrelly.
“Ricky Stanicky” is one of those comedies that comes into our lives without any notice of its filming, we pass by it barely paying attention and it leaves just as quickly as it arrived. In between, we have once again watched another movie about friends with jokes that are more or less funny depending on each person’s taste. While not particularly exciting, it entertains thanks to a very charming John Cena.

“Survivor 46” contestant Tevin Davis said he “watched ‘High School Musical’ and thought if that’s what acting is, I don’t want to do that.” But the 24-year-old actor from Virginia had a change of heart once he took the stage for the first time. Watch their full CBS preview interview above.
Tevin describes a childhood where he “had to overcome a lot” as his parents struggled paying bills like having electricity in the house and avoiding eviction. He says that through “that adversity” he “found who Tevin was.” He adds to his thoughts on his career as an actor when he says that taking the stage made him realize that “all of the struggles that [he’d] been through went away.”

High School Musical fans waited a long time for the fourth movie. In 2019, it finally came out – not as fourth installment but as High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Created by Tim Federle, it premiered on Disney+ in 2019.
High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.
The first season of the TV show didn’t follow the usual storyline from the Disney movies. Instead, it focused on real high school students at East High, where the original High School Musical was filmed.
The original HSM debuted in 2006 and was an instant hit. Disney subsequently released two sequels to the original film. The main leads in the original cast were Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens. But, it seems like NBA star Anthony Edwards wants to replace Efron if the remake ever happens.

Actor Zac Efron’s dance experience helped him prepare for his role as a wrestler in ‘The Iron Claw’. The 36-year-old actor shot to fame when he played Troy Bolton in the Disney Channel hit ‘High School Musical’ before starring as Link Larkin in the film adaptation of Broadway musical ‘Hairspray’ and admitted that his experience turned out to be of use when he was learning to wrestle for his part as Kevin Von Erich in the new biopic, reports Female First UK.
He told HeyUGuys: “Dancing helped, for sure. There was no way to get into wrestling other than just to start. All the guys, we committed from the very first day, from the very first lesson. We showed up, we dropped our egos at the door and just started to listen.”

Call it what you want, but Taylor Swift has extended her pop culture dominance into 2024 in a big way. Her attendance at the AFC Championship playoff game Sunday combined with the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory and path to the Super Bowl has sparked several Swiftie investigations into all of the coincidental Easter eggs, creating a whole new code for the big game.
From the sheer amount of hidden 13s present in all the facts about the 58th Super Bowl to the way Swift has coded colors to go along with her extensive catalog, the Swiftie conspiracy theories are endless.
Late-night host Stephen Colbert and other social media personalities recounted all of the math involved in the various sets of numbers relevant to Super Bowl Lviii:
Lviii = 58, 5+8 = 13 The Kansas City Chiefs will play the San Francisco 49ers, 4+9 = 13 The big game is on February 11, or 2/11, and, you guessed it, 2+11 = 13 The Super Bowl...

Released in 2006, the original movie starred the likes of Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale at the very start of their careers. It was the sort of smash hit that launched a mega-successful franchise and that had a positive impact on their net worth.
After working their way through classic bops like “We’re All In This Together,” the group got together for two more movies. High School Musical 3: Senior Year even got a theatrical release.

Released in 2006, the original movie starred the likes of Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens and Ashley Tisdale at the very start of their careers. It was the sort of smash hit that launched a mega-successful franchise and that had a positive impact on their net worth.
After working their way through classic bops like “We’re All In This Together,” the group got together for two more movies. High School Musical 3: Senior Year even got a theatrical release.

Long before A24 produced Sean Durkin's emotionally obliterating drama "The Iron Claw" (read our review here), the stars at the center of the story, The Von Erichs, were wrestling royalty. It's difficult to fully encompass just how huge the Von Erich Boys were, both in size/stature and popularity. These were wrestlers so famous they appeared in commercials, had their own comic book series, and were known the world over without the assistance of national television or the internet. In fact, Durkin grew up watching old VHS tapes of Von Erich matches that took place in Texas while he was living in England. This is to say that if you know where to look, there's a hell of a lot of Von Erich merch floating out there. Autographed photos, T-shirts, bandanas, trading cards, posters, magazines, replica belts, and even the World Class Wrestling Von Erich-themed board game, are ready...

The new hit take on the beloved Tina Fey high school comedy shows a lasting appeal, but can the original ever be topped?
Because time is a construct, it’s the year 2024, and the biggest film at the box office is … Mean Girls. That would be the new movie adaptation of the hit Broadway musical based on the beloved 2004 film, which feels like a distinctly modern case of IP ouroboros. Despite harsh-to-middling reviews and several trailers noticeably avoiding any of the film’s musical numbers, the new Mean Girls topped the MLK holiday weekend box office with $33m, out-earning the original in absolute terms. And, true to the spirit of the original, the Mean Girls musical movie has generated its own stream of memes – for not knowing it was a musical, for example, or for star Reneé Rapp Regina George-ing a tour bus company owner during a press junket.

There are many actors whose public image will forever be defined by one iconic role. Al Pacino and Michael Corleone. Daniel Radcliffe and Harry Potter. Zac Efron and Troy Bolton.
To millions of millennials and zoomers, Zachary David Alexander Efron will forever be associated with his role as Troy in Disney’s “High School Musical” trilogy of TV films. A cultural phenomenon that remains a beloved nostalgic favorite today, the franchise made Efron a teen idol at 18, and “The Iron Claw” star’s performance as romantic lead Troy forever defined his public image moving forward: an impossibly earnest sweetheart jock, the type of high school heartthrob that could only exist in a Disney version of reality.
A straight to TV movie musical for tweens isn’t the most prestigious way to begin your career, but Efron, for his part, has mostly spoken fondly about the experience in the years since.

Zac Efron wore some of his skimpiest costumes to date and learned wrestling moves for his new movie Iron Claw. However, he handled both aspects of the project with grace.
On the other hand, the 36-year-old actor recently admitted that another element of the movie made him “very uncomfortable.”
What was worse than the costume? Here’s a hint: It involved his breakout movie High School Musical.

During an interview with W Magazine, Zac revealed that his costar Harris Dickinson liked to sing High School Musical songs at him while they were filming.
“People like to do that to mess with me. It’s pretty funny,” he said.
However, “We had a scene where we show up to a party where Stanley [Simons], I think, is singing a song. He performed it live, and then they just continued to move on to another song,...

Zac Efron has already earned the best reviews of his career for the dark new professional wrestling film "The Iron Claw," and now he and his co-stars are opening up about the intense process of making the movie. In this week's Variety cover story, the former teen idol spoke about what it was like to embody real-life athlete and performer Kevin Von Erich, whose pro wrestler family was torn apart by a string of accidents and tragedies in the '80s and '90s. While Efron's preparation for the role doesn't sound like it was dangerous (he says he "learned the hard way about not sacrificing [his] real health for a look on camera" from past roles), it does come across as a pretty isolating and all-consuming experience.

When Darren Aronofsky’s “The Wrestler” came out in 2008, Zac Efron was two movies deep into the Disney Channel’s “High School Musical” franchise, in which he played singing, dancing basketball phenom Troy Bolton. He’d been the swoony romantic lead in the movie musical “Hairspray,” opposite John Travolta and Michelle Pfeiffer, was shortly to play opposite Matthew Perry in “17 Again,” and had pulled his T-shirt up on the cover of Rolling Stone under the headline “The New American Heartthrob.” At 21, Efron might have seemed like the kind of actor who was as likely to watch footage of the moon landing and decide to become an astronaut as he was to take inspiration from Mickey Rourke’s grizzled, broken-down performance.
And yet. “That film impacted me in a really specific way,” he recalls over lunch in Los Angeles. “I was watching it with my dad, and I remember looking at him in that moment,...

Hollywood actor Zac Efron underwent a “jarring” transformation for ‘The Iron Claw’. The 36-year-old actor got ripped to play the professional wrestler Kevin Von Erich in the new movie and felt his look, which included a wig and tiny wrestling shorts, was “ridiculous” initially until things came together.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter at the film’s Los Angeles premiere on Monday, December 11, Efron said: “In the best way possible, I did not look anything like me. It was jarring at first, but we kind of put it together piece by piece.”
“Individually, the wig by itself looks kind of ridiculous; by themselves, the clothes look pretty crazy,” he divulged. “When you put them all together in the sets that our team built and get out there in the ring under those lights, it looks like the Von Erichs, man, and that was our goal. I think it added a lot to it.

When Zac Eforn’s Ex-gf Vanessa Hudgens Was Mean To His Female Fans ( Photo Credit – Instagram )
Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens were adored by the teenagers when they appeared together on Disney’s High School Musical films. Soon after appearing in the movie, the duo started dating in real life as well, and after being together for a few years, they drifted apart. The actor was undoubtedly a teenage heartthrob, which apparently made the actress and his then-girlfriend mean towards Zac’s female fans.
The actress recently married Cole Tucker, a pro basketball player, on December 2nd this year. She had a destination wedding in Tulum, Mexico, and they tied the knot in an intimate ceremony. Her High School Musical co-star Monique Coleman attended Vanessa’s beach wedding.

“Be careful what you wish for” is the moral of Disney’s latest animation, an odd sort of greatest-hits package that ticks all the boxes for what passes as inspirational fare these days. Sadly, that message mostly applies to the studio bosses, who appear to have closed their eyes and blown out 100 candles in return for a 95-minute movie based on the company theme song: Pinocchio’s “When You Wish Upon a Star.”
Cliff Edwards’ haunting, seven-note refrain is referenced throughout the entire movie, but in a weirdly mutated version that, whenever it chimes in, sounds like whoever’s playing it has forgotten how it actually goes, or might be playing it with a rubber spoon. Similarly, on closer examination (which is not at all advised), the plot comes to resemble a similarly wonky AI meditation on the song’s lyrics, which served Pinocchio’s themes very well with its talk of hearts’ desires,...

Zac Efron has heard the news about Matthew Perry wanting to cast him in a biopic about the “Friends” actor’s life, and Efron would be “honored” to do it. The “High School Musical” and “Baywatch” actor spoke to People magazine on the red carpet for A24’s “The Iron Claw” and called Perry a “mentor” figure in his life. The two actors starred together in the 2009 teen fantasy comedy “17 Again.”
.”I’m honored to hear he was thinking of me to play him,” Efron said. “We’ll see. I’d be honored to do it.”
“He was a mentor to me, and we made a really cool film together,” he continued. “I looked up to him, I learned comedic timing from that guy. I mean, when we were filming ’17 Again,’ it was so surreal for me to look across and have him be there, because I’ve learned so much from him,...
