Bearded Zac Efron shows off his buff physique in a tight white T-shirt and slim-fit jeans as he heads to Jimmy Kimmel studios

Bearded Zac Efron showed off his buff physique in a snug $125 Cotton Citizen 'Prince Tee' and slim-fit jeans in LA on Wednesday.

The actor, 36, was in town for the Jimmy Kimmel Live! and kept a low profile in black sunglasses and a black beanie.

Zac also wore a large classic watch and finished his look with white slip-on shoes and white socks.

Close behind was a personal assistant who carried a change of clothes for Zac in a garment bag over his shoulder. 

On the show, Zac spoke to Jimmy about how he was introduced to acting at 12 years old when he attended a summer camp for college students.

He told Jimmy: 'I didn't know it was a camp, it was more of a conservatory school. 

'Basically, it was a three-week pretty intensive acting course, and to get in you had to be in college.

'But, they let a couple younger kids get in, they let two freshman in the programme, and I think I wasn't quite a freshman. 

'I was 12.'

An incredulous Jimmy clarified: 'You were 12 in a camp with college kids?' 

And Zac said: 'I sent a tape and they let me in, but I think I said I was 13 or 14.'

Zac shared that they regularly performed monologues and for one he chose a scene from the Matrix where Agent Smith interrogated Morpheus.

Unfortunately, the camp leaders were unimpressed, and Zac recalled: 'The teacher was like: "Zach, stop right now."' 

He will soon appear in romantic-comedy A Family Affair with Nicole Kidman and The Kissing Booth's Joey King

The film follows Zara (Joey), a young woman who works as the personal assistant to self-absorbed Hollywood star Chris Cole (Zac), who discovers that her boss is having a secret romantic relationship with her widowed mother (Nicole). 

Nicole, 57, and Zac will set pulses racing when they strip off for a saucy sex scene in the film, which will hit Netflix on June 28.

He has starred in one other film this year: comedy Ricky Stanicky with John Cena and William H. Macy.

And it looks like Zac will not be short of roles as has been eyed by Rob Lowe to potentially play the Brat Pack member in a future biopic.

Rob, 60, got the idea after seeing Zac's 'amazing' performance in 2023 wrestling biopic The Iron Claw.

Zac told People: 'That'd be amazing. Oh my gosh. I mean, I would love to play Rob. He's the man. 

'I know him so well personally and I cherish him, so I'm flattered and we'll see. I hope that comes together. It'd be really fun.'
