Mar 15 2007High School Musical in Speed Racer
Looking like an asshole pays off for Zac Efron.
According to Just Jared, High School Musical star Zac Efron is in talks to star as Speed in the Wachowski Brothers' adaptation of Speed Racer. If Efron nails the part, he can add the coveted nerd demographic to the adolescent girls he's already stolen the hearts of. It is said he who controls the nerds and the 10 to 14-year-old girls... controls the world. Is Zac Efron the geek/tween messiah written of (in Tiger Beat and Slashdot)? Only time will tell.
