Ever dreamed of running through pastel fields of lollipop-like, fairy-floss-tipped trees with Zac Efron? The magic of cinema makes it all possible — check out this exclusive clip where Zefron himself takes us through his new 3D extravaganza, Dr Seuss’s trippy The Lorax. Check it out here!
The stars of the Lorax are shining the spotlight on NEA’s Read Across America. The cast, Taylor Swift, Zac Efron, Betty White, Danny DeVito, Ed Helms and Rob Riggle are this year’s honorary Co-chairs and took time from their busy schedule to record two promotional videos for NEA. Zac Efron will join NEA President Dennis Van Roekel in New York for the March 2 national kickoff.
A behind the scenes photo of Zac recording vocals for the character of Ted in the upcoming animated movie The Lorax, in theaters March 12th, has been added to the gallery.
Another highly anticipated film is hitting the streets of L.A. this weekend to film additional scenes or re-shoots.
As we’ve reported, The Avengers, Looper, The Five-Year Engagement, and Rock of Ages -which all filmed in other cities and all wrapped production last year- have all been spotted filming either additional scenes or re-shoots in Los Angeles this month.
Now, it looks like there is one more movie to add to that list. It’s been brought to our attention that the company Fishwrap Productions has issued permits to film scenes for The Paperboy in L.A. this weekend.
We confirmed that Fishwrap was the name of the production company for the Zac Efron film when it was shooting in New Orleans last summer.
The movie, which is expected to hit theaters on Nov. 23, is about a reporter who returns to his Florida hometown to investigate a case involving a death row inmate.
A movie with a big happy face, “Liberal Arts” sees actor-writer-director Josh Radnor leaning on the sitcom-inflected tendencies that typified his debut, “Happythankyoumoreplease.” Adding an aspect of sylvan academia to the first film’s Gotham setting, Radnor plays a thirtysomething school admissions adviser ready for change, which he finds on a trip back to his alma mater. Containing the requisite number of audience-pleasing scenes that will make this a hot Sundance bidding item with indie-centric distribs, the pic will at least secure Radnor’s next multihyphenate project.
Radnor’s writing is very aware of its audience — how long it’s willing to wait between laughs, how to bolster the comedy with just enough serious incidents and lines, and how to keep things breezy and geared toward a “life is wonderful” conclusion. This makes the film feel perilously close to widescreen sitcom, as do montages of New York set to Beethoven’s Sixth Symphony.
Jesse (Radnor) gets a chance to flee the big city when he receives an invite from his favorite professor at Ohio’s Kenyon College, Peter (Richard Jenkins), to attend his retirement dinner. Peter’s friends soon introduce Jesse to their 19-year-old daughter, Elizabeth — nicknamed Zibby (Elizabeth Olsen) — who’s attending Kenyon and specializing in improv theater. Jesse is struck by Zibby’s take on improv, in which a performer must always say “yes” to a suggestion.
Through a series of scenes, including Peter’s pathetic retirement party and Jesse’s unlikely encounters with manic-depressive intellectual Dean (John Magaro) and painfully kooky Nat (Zac Efron), a blissful slacker full of aphorisms, “Liberal Arts” draws a slick, simplistic overview of college life, to which Jesse feels nostalgically drawn. He also feels he should be over it, but before he heads back to New York, Zibby sends him off with a CD of her favorite classical music and an agreement to send handwritten letters to each other.
D Films has picked up The Paperboy, the upcoming film from Precious director Lee Daniels that stars Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman, Matthew McConaughey and John Cusack.
The indie distributor acquired the exclusive Canadian rights in all media to the drama about two brothers investigating a case involving a death row inmate from Millennium Films.
The Paperboy, which is slated for a release this year, is produced by Daniels, Nu Image, Inc./Millennium Films and Benaroya Pictures.
The Canadian deal was hammered out by D Films’ president and CEO Jim Sherry and Millennium Entertainment president of strategic planning and television David Sobieraj.
MTV: First up for you this year is “The Lucky One,” co-starring Zac Efron. Let’s cut to the obvious question: Is kissing Zac as amazing as one might imagine?
Schilling: Oh my gosh. I’m not going to let you down. It’s not a bad way to make a paycheck.
MTV: My favorite Nicholas Sparks movie motif is the rain-drenched makeout scene. From the trailer, it appears you and Zac share a steamy smooch under a showerhead, which is a bit of a twist. What I’m wondering, technically speaking, is if there’s any special choreography to ensure you don’t drown with all that water falling on you?
Schilling: [Laughs] No, there didn’t seem to be a problem.
MTV: So you’ve got both Ben Affleck and Zac Efron as leading men this year. How are you going to top that? Is Brad Pitt next?
Schilling: I don’t know. I don’t know where it goes from here. Brad Pitt, bring it.
