Rumour has it that Disney are grooming Zac Efron to take over from Johnny Depp in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.
The High School Musical star, who’s said he never wants to play singing basketballer Troy ever again, has been offered US$10 million by Disney to star alongside Depp’s character, Captain Jack Sparrow, in the fourth instalment of Pirates.

If Zac Efron gets his way, except tweens across the globe to start having heart palpitations and collapsing in the streets.
The High School Musical star, who can’t seem to forge his own path in the entertainment industry, is looking to steal rival Daniel Radcliffe’s, er, thunder, by taking over the Harry Potter actor’s role in the controversial Broadway hit, Equus.
After seeing the number of accolades Radcliffe has received since first appearing naked on stage in Britain, Efron has decided that a stint in the stage production could be just what he needs to break out of his Disney-friendly roles.
“You know that Daniel Radcliffe role on Broadway, well it’s been mentioned,” Efron let slip at the premiere of his new film, High School Musical 3.
Oh, please! Efron, naked on Broadway?! If that happens, I’m gonna need a bucket, some Vicodin, and a blindfold. And not necessarily in that order.

Efron Won’t Work For Less Than $5Mil
If High School Musical 4 gets the green light, Zac Efron has announced that he won’t star unless Disney pays him a cool $5 million for his efforts.
The actor behind basketball jock Troy Bolton seems to have gotten a little ahead of himself, though. Producers behind the now infamous film franchise have said that they aren’t even sure a fourth installment is on the cards.
Now that Efron’s head has expanded to the size of a football field, I bet the producers aren’t too keen to have him reprise his role for a fourth time…

They’d better start practicing for a break-up, though. Rumour has it the producers for the latest installment in the popular HSM franchise are planning on splitting up their alter egos, Gabriella and Troy.
