Fans were reacting to the appearance of Zac Efron in A Family Affair, which came to Netflix on June 28.
The film centres on an unexpected romance - which triggers hilarious consequences for a young woman, her mother, and her boss.
Zac plays the part of self-absorbed Hollywood star Chris Cole, starring alongside Nicole Kidman, who features as writer Brooke Harwood, a writer.
In 2022, Zac appeared on the cover of Men's Health Magazine, and explained what happened to his face - after rumors of plastic surgery circulated since the prior year.
In his interview, Zac revealed that he had a nasty accident at home that caused the massive transformation in his face.
The star recalled how he slipped on a pair of socks while running at his home - causing him to smash his chin into a granite fountain.
Zac said that when he was injured, the masseter muscles on the inside of his face and jaw then 'compensated' for his injury causing them to grow in size - hence his remarkable transformation.
This saw others leap to his defence, citing his previous surgery following a serious fall years ago.

'A tweet about Zac Efron’s face goes viral literally every month & every single time someone has to explain what happened to his jaw & how he had to get reconstructive surgery & what not, this sh** is tiring.'
Zac says the change in size of his masseter muscles explains why he looked so different at the time. 'The masseters just grew. They just got really, really big.'
The High School Musical star also claimed to not know that he was a huge talking point on social media and had in fact gone viral for his different-looking jaw, until his mother called to ask if he had gone under the knife.
'If I valued what other people thought of me to the extent that they may think I do,' he told the magazine, 'I definitely wouldn't be able to do this work.'
