Zac Efron Waves Goodbye to 'High School Musical' to Star in a Thriller

June 26, 2009

His career skyrocketing, Zac Efron is proving to many of his fans that he is in control of his own life.  The High School Musical star has been steering clear of the genre that made him earn fame, and is heading straight for more challenging material.  According to The Hollywood Reporter, Zac has signed on to film an upcoming thriller.

While the flick is still untitled, few details about it have been released.  It's under Mandate Pictures and will be written by Leslie Dixon.  If the name sounds familiar, it's because she has worked with Efron before.  In 2007, she wrote the screenplay for the hit musical Hairspray.  She's also the one behind Freaky Friday and The Thomas Crown Affair.

Teen Choice Awards Announce Gigantic List of Nominees

June 15, 2009

The Teen Choice Awards just announced their massive list of nominees for this years award show, and you will NEVER guess which movie is dominating the nominations. The Reader! I know, all of a sudden the teens are all into dramatic Post-World War II love stories and mystery. Oh, who am I kidding? Of course it is Twilight who is dominating the Teen Choice Awards, with 12 nominations. By all accounts the Teen Choice Awards should be a repeat of the MTV Movie Awards, where the teen vampire tale handily bested other tween favorites such as High School Musical.

But the Teen Choice Awards isn't going to be all-Twilight-all-the-time, High School Musical, Miley Cyrus, and Gossip Girl also each scored 10 nominations. No big shockers there, though it will be shocking if any of them manage to wrestle one of those coveted surfboards from Twilight's fangs. The hosts of this years Teen Choice Awards, The Jonas Brothers, will be doing double duty that night--they're nominated for seven surfboards.
