HE LEAVES HSM!!
I cant believe it tbh,
it wont be the same, hes a good actor,
WE NEED ZAC EFRON IN HSM 4!!!
Or i probs wnt watch it
I second Anon’s rec…Hunter Partish NEEDS this role. He was AMAZING in Spring Awakening!! If you didn’t see it, you truly missed out!! HUNTER PARRISH!!
well i would love to see zac efron in footloose but he doesnt want to star in it! so i think ur next choise should be Nolan Gerard Funk cause he is great!! lol!!
well i think that decision its a little bit stupid cauze footloose is an amazing movie, as i think one of the best 80′s movies and a remake would be awesome for our generation. As much as i love zac efron i think this choise wasnt the best. doing musical movies is not that bad he is only 21 he has a lot of time for doing any kind of movie he wants. Opportunities like footloose only show up once.
Well he already took his decision so i just hope that helps him and he never regret that. He is an amazing actor and singer.
This is is stupid
zac efron should not be placed out of footloose it anything they should be begging him to come back…..BRING HIM BACK OR I WON’T WATCH FOOTLOOSE!!!!!!!
How could someone not like Zac Efron?!
he is like the awsomest guy on the planet and the best actor & singer somebody could get. Now BRING HIM BACK
or i’m NOT WATCHING footlose!!!!!
Has John Travolta been type-casted? Give me a break Zac – take what you can get, your 15 minutes is about up…
what the hell!!!! zac efron should be in footloose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey I think Derek Hough would be super in that role! Great pick!
thats soo upsetting, kevin bacon was soo much better in it and its a oldie movie and my favor too.. This new movie is gonna turn into a kid movie..
Zac is perfect for the roll Will. He should not have turned down such a wonderful oprotunity.
why the hell who you replace kevin bacon?
But who do yhu think was gonna pull young ppl in…uhhhh thaa most famous young actor of our time ..ZAC EFRON!!!!!!!duhhhh I meann come on I doubt thaa new footloose will make any money,mann KEVIN BACON was thaa man back then an I thinkk that zac needs to be put bac in thaa moviee ……plus ZAC can move idk who would be better for thaa job….
