Action man Zac Efron

November 23, 2009
Zac Efron thinks it would be "weird" if he starred in an action movie.
The High School Musical star – who became a teenage heartthrob after appearing in the Disney movie franchise – would love to try his hand at as a screen hero but fears his career could be over if the role wasn't perfect.
He said: "I would love to try an action film at some point, but not too soon. I think that can be a kiss of death. There's got to be a real role that I can bring something unique and specific to, a way for me to do it believably. Until then, I think it would just come across as weird."
The 22-year-old star also revealed he is in awe of actor Leonardo DiCaprio – despite disliking him when he was growing up.
He admitted: "I think Leonardo DiCaprio's done a great job. I was dead set against the guy when I was growing up, kind of force-fed his image from Titanic. Since then, through very hard work and incredible performances, he's done a complete 180. Now he's one of my favourite actors. He's at the top of his game."
Meanwhile, Zac has revealed he plans to return to college to continue his studies.
He said: "I know at some point I will go back and study, but at this point I'm definitely focusing on working as hard as I can on film.
"I've always wanted to do Broadway. Finding that right role is a challenge. I wouldn't want to just do it to do it. I would want to make sure it's something special."
