Quick Facts About Zac Efron

Zac Efron Net Worth

Efron was ranked 92 on the Forbes Celebrity 100 list in 2008, with estimated earnings of $5.8 million between June 2007 and June 2008. In April 2009, his personal wealth was estimated to be around $10 million. Efron’s net worth was $18 million in May 2015.

Zac Efron Plastic Surgery

One of Efron’s closest friends has chimed in on the debate over his appearance, saying there’s no way he’s had plastic surgery. He then stated that it would be pointless for the High School Musical heartthrob to undergo surgery because he is already so attractive. Kyle Sandilands, an Australian radio host who has known Zac for years, dismissed the rumors on Friday’s Kyle and Jackie O Show.

Kyle chimed in on the debate a few days after leading plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Youn shared his thoughts on Zac’s new look. Dr. Youn claimed in a TikTok video posted on Sunday that Zac may have had dental surgery but not plastic surgery, as some fans have speculated. It’s well known that Efron broke his jaw in 2013, but it’s unclear whether the old injury has anything to do with his “new” look.

Zac Efron Baywatch 

In May of 2017, Efron starred in Baywatch, an action comedy film based on a television series of the same name. The film stars Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron, as well as Alexandra Daddario, Kelly Rohrbach, Jon Bass, Ilfenesh Hadera, and Priyanka Chopra.

Lt. Mitch Buchannon and his team of lifeguards protect the beaches and bay in Emerald Bay, Florida, as part of an elite division known as Baywatch. To the chagrin of beat cop Garner Ellerbee and his superior, Captain Thorpe, Mitch is well-liked in the community.

The story follows Mitch and Brody as they investigate a drug ring based at the Huntley Beach Club. Leeds’ plan to privatize the entire beach by systematically buying out or eliminating every competing business owner is discovered by the team. Brody is apprehended and placed in a bait cage to drown. Leeds reveals that she bribed Thorpe to fire Mitch and replace him with Brody. Summer swims up to Brody just before he dies and gives him the kiss of life. This is revealed to be a hallucination.

On February 22, 2016, principal photography began in Florida and Savannah, Georgia. The film was released by Paramount Pictures in the United States on May 25, 2017, and grossed $177 million worldwide. It received negative reviews from critics, who criticized its crude humor, storyline, and character development, but Johnson’s performance received some praise. At the 38th Golden Raspberry Awards, Baywatch received five nominations, including Worst Picture and Worst Actor for Efron.

With the teen musical television film High School Musical in 2006, which premiered on the Disney Channel in January 2006, Efron’s career reached a tipping point. When it was released in July 2007, the film was a huge commercial and critical success. Later that year, he was seen reprising his role as Troy Bolton in High School Musical 2 in 2007, which aired in August 2007 on the Disney Channel.

Efron played Troy Bolton again in High School Musical 3: Senior Year in 2008, the first film in the High School Musical franchise to be released theatrically. The film was a box office success and received mixed to positive reviews from critics.

After six days, he is apprehended and brought back to Aspen, Colorado, for trial. Following his capture, he begins to attract a swarm of women who are captivated by him. Some even say they adore him.

Rotten Tomatoes reported a 68 percent approval rating for the series based on 12 reviews, with an average rating of 6.33/10. Based on four reviews, Metacritic gave the series a weighted average score of 60 out of 100.
