Zac Efron to play a superhero?

Zac Efron is reportedly in talks to play a superhero.

Movie bosses apparently thing the actor will be perfect to play Marvel comic book character, Namor.

“Zac is seen as perfect for the role,” an insider revealed.

“He can fit the role physically and has the acting skill necessary and he has a fanbase to help make the movie a hit. Namor is an unusual character but the underwater aspect is something producers are very excited to be putting onto the big screen.”

We’re not going to pretend to know anything about comic books, but a bit of Googling revealed to us that Namor is a big buff fella who wears tight green trunks – we say sign up, Mr Efron.
