Some think a shirtless Zac Efron is going to be seen in more and more movies to come. Will this come to pass? Will Zac take the low road and bank on his good looks as the rather shaky foundation for his budding career? Let’s take a quick review of his recent and present roles shall we.

The year Zac became part of the 100 Most Beautiful People list by People Magazine,Will a Shirtless Zac Efron Take the Low Road? Articles Zac was almost done with high school musical and had appeared in various shows like MTV’s Punk’d. He also played a part in Vanessa Hudgen’s music video for her song “Say OK” and of course, he was the love partner of Vanessa in the video. This was also the year John Travolta’s Hairspray got premiered. Zac was the leading lady’s love interest. He was Link Larkin, low and beholds a pop dancer. Zac reportedly sand all his song in that one. His hair was cut and colored, and he lost a few pounds for the role which paid of by being reviewed positively.

The second big hit movie was High School Musical two which went out in 2007. It seems that from that point on, Efron was at the top of IMDPro’s Star meter. Number one in fact. In the film, fans were treated to a shirtless Zac Efron. I suppose there are omens of more things to come. High School Musical 2 was a big success. It broke the record for being the most watched basic U.S. cable show of all time. It had seventeen point 2 million viewers.

At about this time, the nefarious, infamous Rolling Stone cover photo of Zac Efron got into print. Here, we see an almost shirtless Zac Efron, looking much like any other Hollywood boy toy type idol for mass consumption. Efron appeared in the 07 Teen Choice Awards presenting the Award for Favorite Movie.

And of course, he appeared in High School Musical 3: Senior Year. This time, HSM is released through theaters. Zac’s next role will be someone aged seventeen again. He might not be able to get out of that stereotype he’s gotten himself into. The drama is produced by Adam Shankman, it how a seventeen year old boy grows up into adulthood, a coming of age story.

However, his newest film might see a change of scenery. Zac is cast as the lead character in the upcoming film entitled: Me and Orson Welles. Orson Welles, a many would know, is the legendary director. The story of the movie is that Zac’s character will be cast in Orson’s film entailed Julius Caesar and he will be attracted to this production assistant who is close to Welles. The film will show how Welles and Zac’s character butts heads in the making of the movie. Perhaps this is the first sign that Zac will be leaving the Hollywood low road.

The other sign is his staring in the new remake of Footloose which originally starred young Kevin Bacon. I suppose being in the Greese mold isn’t so bad for a career. We may not see so much of shirtless Zac Efron again.
