The Lorax is the fourth film and second animated film based on Dr. Seuss’s children’s books. The problem – and it’s been a problem in all the films – is how to turn a book that runs less than fifty pages with little text into a feature length narrative. For this film, which stars Danny Devito, Zac Efron and Taylor Swift, that means turning the story into an adventure about a young environmentalist. Check out the trailer…
It seems eventually Hollywood will churn out every Dr. Seuss book into a movie, and the latest of the Dr. Seuss classics to hit film form is The Lorax. Added to the cast are Danny DeVito, Taylor Swift and Zac Efron, along with Ed Helms, Rob Riggle and Betty White. Universal will be releasing the picture and the animation will be done by Illumination Entertainment, who were behind Despicable Me and did the CG animation for Hop.
Garry Marshall’s romantic comedy Valentine’s Day continues to haunt us with the follow up entitled New Year’s Eve. It makes you wonder if we’re going to go through all the holidays at some point. The film will have an ensemble cast that currently includes Robert De Niro, Hilary Swank, Michelle Pfeiffer, Sofia Vergara, Jessica Biel, Lea Michele, Abigail Breslin, and yes, Ashton Kutcher is back. According to THR, three more actors have joined the feature in the form of Sarah Jessica Parker, Zac Efron, and Halle Berry.
After stumping critical speculation with his successful break into the mainstream world of cinema in last year’s Me And Orson Welles, the most beloved fruit of Disney’s labor is back to impress. Zac Efron stars in this weekend’s Universal Pictures release of Charlie St. Cloud, directed by Burr Steers (17 Again, How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days). With eight films in current development and a worldwide promotional tour for the film, we were still able to sit down with the heart throb to discuss the picture.

Yahoo has released the second trailer for the upcoming Zac Efron film, Charlie St Cloud. We all know that the former child-star can sing and dance but can he bring the drama? Even though a lot of us would hate to admit it, he’s not a bad actor and he’s a lot more charismatic on screen than the other thespians in his age group. Check out the trailer…
Zac Efron is really, really trying to get away from his Disney roots by taking on more serious and adult roles. According to THR, he’s attached to star in the American remake of the Swedish thriller Snabba Cash (Easy Money) a movie that’s filled with plenty of illegal activities like drug trafficking and money laundering. Not only will Efron play the lead character but he’ll also co-produce alongside his manager Jason Barrett.
Zac Efron is growing up. And you know what? Good for him. The High School Musical star is making a leap into more mature roles. According to Deadline Hollywood, Efron has just made a deal with Universal for the spy thriller Fire, an adaptation of a graphic novel by Brian Michael Bendis that was published by Image Comics. Take that Disney!
After the release of the theatrical trailer for Me and Orson Welles it would only be a matter of time before the first official poster dropped. Over at Cinematical, they’ve premiered the one sheet that features Zac Efron, Claire Danes, and Christopher McKay. The film is an adaptation of the Robert Kaplow novel of the same name. It centers on a 17 year old (Efron), who has landed a part in a 1937 production of Julius Caesar, which is directed by a young Orson Welles.
