Zac Efron returns to the school where he filmed hit High School Musical series

Zac Efron delighted High School Musical fans everywhere by returning to the school where his hit movie series was filmed.  

Efron, 34, Instagrammed a photo of himself walking in front of Salt Lake High School East with his fist raised into the air on Friday. 

‘Don’t you… Forget about me,’ he captioned the photo, along with a fist bump emoji. 

The post comes just weeks after his former High School Musical costar Vanessa Hudgens shared a video of herself in front of the same institution.

The video was set to the song she and Efron sing in HSM, Breaking Free, and saw Vanessa walking in front of the building before flashing two peace signs and a smile for the camera.

‘Do you remember in kindergarten how you’d meet a kid and know nothing about them, then 10 seconds later you’re playing like you’re best friends because you didn’t have to be anything but yourself?’ she wrote in the caption.

Efron and Hudgens played Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez, two students auditioning for the school musical, in the hit 2006 Disney movie High School Musical.

The roles catapulted them to fame, and two sequels and a spin-off came from the film, including High School Musical 2 and High School Musical 3: Senior Year.

A television series inspired by the series, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, debuted in 2019 and will soon be returning for a third season.

In May, Zac said he would be interested in returning for a fourth High School Musical film.

When Efron was asked by E! if he would be interested in returning to the franchise, he noted that he would be happy to reunite with his castmates.

‘Of course. Seriously, having the opportunity in any form to go back and work with that team would be so amazing,’ he said.

The Firestarter actor expressed that he would jump at the chance to revive the hit franchise.

‘Yeah, my heart’s still there so that would be incredible, I hope it happens,’ he said.

Development on a fourth movie in the franchise took place in 2016, although its production appears to have stalled.
