Zac on the set of "Seventeen"

It’s no secret that Zac Efron is headed for a huge film career. His latest gig is a movie with Matthew Perry called “Seventeen.” And from the looks of it, he’s fitting in just fine.

Yesterday, the High School Musical stud was photographed on the Santa Monica set of his new movie, clowning around outside his trailer.

When he showed up on set, Zac was wearing a clean button down shirt, but in subsequent pics, it appeared that he’d gotten quite dirty. Is it part of the movie’s script, or is he having mud wrestling matches with the former Friends star?

Nevertheless, is set to be a great year for Zac. With HSM 3 in the works, and his status as one half of one of the hottest Hollywood “It” couples, it’s clear that Efron is sitting pretty.

Enjoy the pictures of Zac on the set of "Seventeen" yesterday afternoon.

Zanessa's New Years Day diner date

What better way to ring in the New Year than with a romantic diner date? That's what Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens opted for - as they headed out to grab a bite to eat on Tuesday in Toluca Lake.

The High School Musical hotties dined at one of their favorite spots, Paty's Diner, with both smiling and laughing as they made their way past the paparazzi on site.

Meanwhile, Zac has been receiving high praises in numerous year end newspaper reviews. A few of the compliments include:

Contra Costa Times:

Biggest Tween Sensation (Male): Zac Efron turned on the sparkly eyed, dimple-faced charm and helped the Disney Channel’s "High School Musical 2" achieve the largest audience (17.2 million) in basic-cable history.

Boston Globe:

Television’s most striking successes tended to be wholesome family fare: ”American Idol.” ”Dancing With the Stars.” ”High School Musical 2.” We swooned over fresh-faced, clean-cut boys: Zac Efron, Sanjaya Malakar.

Fort-Worth Star Telegram:

What's Hot: Zac Efron and Miley Cyrus — him with the smash hit "High School Musical 2" telemovie and soundtrack, her with a successful "Hannah Montana" TV show and sold-out concert tour — rocketed to stardom, leaving anyone over 18 suddenly feeling very, very old and as useless as a first-generation iPod.

Zac on the set of "Seventeen"

Two days ago, we saw Tobey Maguire with a weird side-shaved haircut. And now we bring you Zac Efron, doing his best Chazz Michael Michaels (Blades of Glory) impression.

The High School Musical heartthrob is currently filming “Seventeen” along with Matthew Perry, Michelle Trachtenberg, and Melora Hardin.

Efron showed up on the Santa Monica set yesterday wearing a comfy combo of a grey t-shirt and some 3 stripes Adidas warm-up pants.

And apparently, Zac is a joy to work with. Co-star Trachtenberg recently told press, “It’s nice coming to work with Zac Efron. He’s like the loveliest thing and doing a great job on the movie.”

Zac on the set of "Seventeen"

Who purchased the vehicle for Vanessa is still up in the air, but some insiders are already speculating that it may have been from her HSM co-star boyfriend Zac Efron.

If so, it would be a great way to make up for the fact that he was stuck working on the set of "Seventeen" on his girlfriends 19th!
