Zac Efron plays U.S. Marine Sergeant Logan Thibault in the film adaptation of Nicholas Sparks’ novel, “The Lucky One,” which opens in theaters on April 20th. The talented actor shared his thoughts on the powerful story during our recent interview.

The Lucky One’s theme is one of fate and destiny. Do you believe a person writes their own story or lives a life that’s already written.
From my own experience, I think there’s some sort of guidance. I don’t know what it is, but something helps me along the way. I think maybe opportunities present themselves or doors are open and it’s up to you to walk through them – only you can do that. I think I believe in both to a degree.

Your character, Logan, is led by his lucky charm – the photo of Beth. Do you have a lucky charm?
I don’t really have a lucky charm at the moment. There’s little things that I keep around, but I can’t think of anything that I carry around day to day.

At the core of the film is a photograph that connects Logan and Beth. Have pictures played a role in connecting you to other people?
Yes – I’m sure at some point. I love to keep pictures around of family and friends. I’m always looking through pictures that connect me to great memories.

What makes The Lucky One such a powerful story?
It’s about two real people that have experienced life and all of the challenges and hardships, but despite the weight they carry, are able to come together and find true love and find their soul’s counterpart. It’s very powerful. It’s a love story.

If you were to be remembered by a single image, what would it look like?
Hopefully, I’m smiling and my eyes are open.

Women’s Health conducted the interview with Zac Efron the other day. Make sure you read this juicy interview below!

You play a marine in your new movie-badass! Got any girlie qualities?
Sometimes I take a while to get ready to go out. It’s not excessive, but it takes me some time to find clean clothes that match.

You see a beautiful woman. How do you approach her?
“So do you like High School Musical?” I’m kidding! If the situation’s right, buy someone a drink. Think on your toes, use what’s around you, and come up with something organic and fun.

Telltale signs a first date is going well?
I think when it ends up going on longer than planned… and you don’t even realize it. You don’t want it to end.

What makes someone marriage material?
A sense of ambition and a sense of freedom, which is a careful mix. You have to balance those two. I haven’t exactly found it yet.

What’s the best compliment you’ve received?
A woman called me interesting once, and it kind of blew my mind. She said, “You’re one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met,” and I was like, Wow. I’m still high on that one.

Zac Efron describes himself as a desperate romantic. The hunk is one of the most desirable bachelors in the world. He is currently thought to be single following his 2010 split from Vanessa Hudgens, although he has been linked to Rumer Willis and Lily Collins. Zac loves sharing his life with someone special.

“Well, I am single now but I am desperately romantic,” he admitted. “I even wrote a song once.”

It’s thought the tune was for Vanessa, who Zac dated for around three years.

The 24-year-old has a penchant for older women. He particularly likes brooding brunette ladies and joked that in certain countries he struggles not to stare because the women are so attractive.

“My preference is for older women. My favorite actresses are Penélope Cruz, Rosario Dawson, Salma Hayek and Eva Longoria,” he told Vanity Fair Italy. “Dark hair and dark eyes are a perfect combination. I guess I cannot resist that Mediterranean look. That exotic allure. Every time I visit Italy I am daydreaming!” [Source]

Is Zac Efron’s biggest regret no longer being in a relationship with Vanessa Hudgens? The two “High School Musical” stars were an item for quite some time. Now he’s sharing what his biggest regret is with his fans. Do you think you know what it is?

According to a report from Celebuzz, it’s got nothing to do with Vanessa Hudgens – or any other young woman for that matter. Zac’s biggest regret is that he never went to college.

“The Lorax” star graduated from high school in 2006, and that just happened to be the same year he became an instant star via “High School Musical.” He had already been accepted to two prestigious colleges – both USC and UCLA, but opted to pursue his acting instead. Since then he has starred in “Hairspray” and “17 Again” in addition to “High School Musical” and “The Lorax.” Zac Efron even has a new film coming out on April 20th, called “The Lucky One.”

Is there any reason the 24-year-old actor couldn’t go to college now? He most likely could go, but it would mean – once again – putting his acting career on the back burner, and that’s not something that something with his present celebrity status is likely to do. [Source]

Taylor Schilling plays “The Lucky One” in the upcoming adaptation of Nicholas Sparks’ novel, and she feels that way in real life about working with co-star Zac Efron. It turns out, the feeling’s mutual.

“We didn’t have to do much searching for our girl, at all. Found Taylor and she was…. extraordinarily talented,” Efron told CNN of his 27-year-old co-star, who plays the mystery woman Efron’s on-screen Marine searches for in North Carolina, thinking her photo may have kept him alive while he served in Iraq.

“I always want to work with people [who] take it to the next level, and seeing her preparation… we had a great time,” the 24-year-old actor went on. “It was a great experience.”

Efron famously had to bulk up for the role of Logan Thibault in the film, and Schilling says he rose to the occasion of changing his physique – and that he wasn’t bad in the chemistry department, either.

“It was pretty extraordinary from our screen test[s]… Zac and I sort of clicked immediately,” Schilling said. “I was sort of in awe of his generosity as a scene partner, and it was pretty amazing.”

And it seems the same can be said for their love-making scenes.

“I’m very lucky. What can I say?” Schilling laughed as Efron added in, “I was pretty lucky too. She’s not bad.”

Hey! I am really sorry for the lack in updates for the past several days. I have been ill (yes, again) this week which prevented me from updating this fansite. With such unpredictable weather in Europe at this time of the year, one is bound to get ill every now and then. Anyway, having said that, I want you to know that you may expect tons of updates in several hours!

By the way, I fixed the gallery, so feel free to browse it now!

Zac Efron learns from his mistakes and the actor now refuses to eat tuna or onions before filming a love scene after a horrible incident during his early career. “The Lucky One” actor was once embarrassed after a co-star called him out on set, and now he won’t eat anything smelly before a kissing scene.

“I chewed more gum that day than typical. No onions! I had a kissing scene one time [on a different movie] and I ate a tuna sandwich and it was the first [scene] I had to do and I got called out on it,” he explained to Access Hollywood.

He also added: “It was so embarrassing … You don’t do that, don’t be that guy!” But Zac has no problems stripping down for roles. How does he set the mood? Well, by thinking its funny for starters.

“You can’t take it too seriously. I think the best way to do it is laugh all the way through it because its hilarious.”

If we Zac laughed at us while we were stripping down – that would definitely scar us for life! The actor, who previously dated his “High School Musical” co-star Vanessa Hudgens, is said to be dating “Mirror, Mirror” star Lily Collins. [Source]
