Zac Efron In Talks To Star In New Film The Greatest Beer Run Ever
Zac Efron has landed a new role! The young actor is set to star alongside Russell Crowe and Bill Murray in the new film, The Greatest Beer Run Ever.
Directed by Peter Farrelly and based on the novel by Chick Donahue and J.T. Malloy, The Greatest Beer Run Ever tells Donohue’s (Efron) story of leaving New York in 1967 to bring beer to his childhood buddies in the Army — while they are fighting in Vietnam. Donohue took a good idea to the extreme, hitching a ride on a merchant marine ship, then carrying the beer through the jungle as he tried to track down his three friends. Dressed in shorts and Hawaiian shirts, he was mistaken for CIA, which made his effort a bit easier. Finally, when he completed his beer run, the Tet Offensive happened.”
Production is scheduled to begin this August in either Australia or New Zealand.
