Zac Efron is breaking his silence on the possibility of playing the legendary Matthew Perry in a mind-blowing biopic. The heartthrob couldn’t contain his excitement and respect for the idea!
Stepping onto the red carpet at the premiere of his hotly anticipated film “The Iron Claw,” Zac spilled the beans on Matthew Perry’s dream of having him step into his shoes on the big screen. He dished to People, “I’m absolutely stoked that he even thought of me for the role. Let’s just say, I’d be over the moon to do it!”
Memories of their epic collaboration in “17 Again” flooded back for Zac, and he couldn’t help but gush about the impact Matthew had on his life. Describing Perry as his guiding star and comedy guru, Zac confessed, “He was like my comedic Jedi master. I practically worshiped the guy and learned all the tricks of the trade from him.”
The news of Matthew Perry’s untimely departure hit Zac hard, and he couldn’t hide his sorrow. “It’s still a gut punch to think he’s no longer with us… We’ll have to wait and see how it all plays out.”
But this isn’t the first time Matthew Perry had hoped for Zac to be his on-screen doppelganger. Now, the burning question is whether this epic project will come to life as a tribute to the iconic actor’s legacy. Stay tuned for the Hollywood showdown of the century!
