Curta Essa com Zac Efron

When trailers were first released for the show, many took notice of Zac Efron's transformation: the famously chiseled and clean cut actor appeared bearded and somewhat bigger. Efron drew praise for no longer conforming to Hollywood's ridiculous fitness standards and for being himself, not to mention the attention of fans smitten with his new look. Some have said things along the lines of "Thank you, Zac Efron, for changing your look based on my changing tastes." Some have referred to Efron's look as a "Dad bod," to which others have responded, "If people are saying Zac Efron has a 'dad bod' looking like this... there's no hope for the rest of us." On no longer maintaining his old physique, Efron said, "...I realized when I was done with [Baywatch] I don't ever want to be in that good of shape again."
