There’s no such thing as a Zac Efron movie without a wet Zac Efron Tweet RSSS

This isn’t the blog post I had in mind writing when I saw Ramin Bahrani’s masterful American drama At Any Price. The film stars Zac Efron and Dennis Quaid (who gives the best performance of his career) as a sparring father-son duo living and working the land in the Corn Belt. At one point in the movie, Zac Efron, wearing a white wife-beater, dunks his head and upper body into a water tub and whips his body back out, soaked through.

No surprise. A wet Zac Efron. He must have it in his contract that he needs to be wet at least once in ever movie he’s in. Just look.

He’s wet in The Lucky One

He’s wet in 17 Again

And in Charlie St. Cloud

He’s even wet in Me & Orson Welles

He’s wet (and dancing in the rain) in Lee Daniels’s Paperboy

Which is something he liked to do in High School Musical 3, too

And of course there’s this, which was oh so unfortunately cut from HSM3

About the only movie he’s not wet in is Hairspray

But he does do this…
