So, how does Zac Efron really feel about the movie that made him a household name? "I step back and look at myself and I still want to kick that guy's a** sometimes," he told Men's Journal. "Like, f**k that guy. He's done some kind of cool things with some cool people — he did that one thing ['Neighbors'] that was funny — but, I mean, he's still just that f**king kid from ['High School Musical']."
Even when he was in the midst of his "High School Musical" days, it seems Efron wasn't a big fan of Troy Bolton, telling NYLON GUYS of his "High School Musical" fame (via US Weekly), "I try not to look at all of it. You can't enjoy or celebrate it; it's not a real thing. The face on the lunchbox and s**t — you can't share that with your friends."Does that mean Efron has joined the list of celebrities who hate their most iconic roles? Or perhaps, he has simply matured from a Disney star into an A-list actor and some of his past performances do not resonate with him as much anymore.
While Efron likely isn't looking to reprise his "High School Musical" role anytime soon, as of this writing, he has numerous projects in the works, so fans can bet on Efron sticking around on their screens for the foreseeable future.
