Zac Efron “Ecstatic” About Chace Crawford “Footloose” Casting
Zac Efron was “ecstatic” to learn that Gossip Girl hottie Chace Crawford has been chosen to replace him in Paramount Picture’s upcoming motion picture remake of Footloose.
“I’m ecstatic for him. We’re both in very different places and it just happened to work out. I think it’s gonna work out for the best.”
The 17 Again star — best known for his role as Troy in Disney’s High School Musical franchise — dropped out of the film earlier this year, citing fears that he would become typecast in musical roles.
