'Star Wars Episode 7' News: Zac Efron To Play Princess Leia's Son? Actor Says 'It Would Be Cool' [VIDEO]
Zac Efron may get a part in Star Wars: Episode VII.
PerezHilton posted the news on Monday about Efron's meeting with the crew. The actor revealed that he's not sure if he'll get a part, but he would love to get one.
"Yeah, I just went in and met with them," Efron said in a recent interview with MTV. "So I don't know. It would be cool. I love them, I love them, but...who knows?"
It is unknown if the That Awkward Moment star only had a meeting or if he actually auditioned.
But according to Design & Trend, if Efron lands a part, it will likely be one of Princess Leia's kids.
Some other rumored actors include Hugo Weaving, Michael Fassbender and Adam Driver. Judi Dench is also rumored to play Mon Mothma.
The confirmed cast members at this point include original "Star Wars" actors Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher.
It appears that a majority of the film is being kept under wraps, according to the film's director, J.J. Abrams.
"I'm working on the Star Wars script today and the people in my office have covered up all my windows with black paper," Abrams recently told The Telegraph. "I guess they wanted to make sure no one could see what I was doing."
