Not to Be Labeled a Show-Mo, Zac Efron Drops Out of 'Footloose'

Footloose was scheduled to begin shooting soon in Atlanta, and it’s being directed by High School Musical helmer Kenny Ortega with a $20M budget. Zac apparently used a script-approval clause in his contract to back out, due to some recent rewrites, also adding that he “did not want to do another musical at this point in his career.”

We’re sure everyone is pissed, but we suppose if Zac’s ever going to have a shot at being known as anything but a musical theater queen, he should probably stop fagging out on golf courses on camera and butch it up a little bit. Perhaps he should consider getting all CGI-enhanced and play a big, naked superhero with junk the size of Rhode Island–that’ll boost anyone’s career.
