Jeremy Allen White hasn’t seen Zac Efron’s ‘High School Musical’ movies
Jeremy Allen White has never seen his The Iron Claw Co-star Zac Efron‘S High school musical trilogy – and he has one condition before he can watch it.
“I haven’t seen them,” White, 32, said on television “Just for a change” podcast episode on Saturday, December 23. “Sorry, Zac. I’ll check them out. I will.”
White joked that he would only watch the films “if Zac holds my hand through them”, noting, “That’s how we get it done.”
When host Marc Malkin suggested that watching High school musical could be a potential charity fundraiser, White said: “Just film Zac and I, fingers intertwined in a theater, watching the three… is it three movies?”
White clarified that he will “only watch the ones that Zac is a part of,” meaning there are no spinoffs. “That’s part of the deal,” he said. “But yes, I would be open to that, raising money.”
In The Iron Claw, which hits theaters on Friday, December 22, White and Efron, 36, play brothers Kerry Von Erich and Kevin Von Erich, respectively. The film follows the true story of the struggling family.
White and Efron have seemingly developed a close bond since filming The Iron Claw. When Efron received a Hollywood Walk of Fame star earlier this month, White spoke at the unveiling.
“It’s like Zac Efron doesn’t know he’s actually a movie star,” White said at the ceremony. “So we’re all here today to remember him and put a big star in the ground with his name on it so he’ll never forget.”
While being honored at the event, Efron praised High school musical director Kenny Ortega and producer Bill Bordenwho was in the audience.
“You both helped me get my start High school musicalEfron said. “I am eternally grateful for that. I still think about it every day: I sing the songs in the shower.
During the ceremony, Efron channeled his inner Troy Bolton when he shouted the film’s iconic line: “Go Wildcats!” He also said that “it’s a dream come true” to have a star.
