We best know Zac Efron as basketball star turned showtunes king Troy Bolton in the High School Musical films – but his latest role is an entirely different kettle of fish.
The 31-year-old plays Ted Bundy in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, and the actor has given us a first look at him in character as the notorious serial killer.
A still shared to Zacs Instagram sees him wearing a blue suit and a patterened tie, while sporting wavy locks; the image appears to have come from a court scene.
Zac captioned the pic: Ready for Sundance!
The film will be premiering at Sundance Film Film Festival in January 2019, and weve gotta say – we cannot wait.
