Zac Efron Tapped for Footloose Lead Filed under ( Footloose, High School Musical, Kenny Ortega, Kevin Bacon, Zac Efron )

High School Musical star Zac Efron has signed on to pick up where Kevin Bacon left off -- in a musical remake of the movie Footloose. Brought to us by Paramount, Kenny Ortega is also back in the picture, both as choreographer and director. Loved this movie from 1984 - can't wait to see the new one.
