Appearing alongside John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, Christopher Walken and Queen Latifah, Efron once again thrilled fans and helped the film earn nearly $119 million domestically. Director Adam Shankman nearly passed on Efron for the role of golden boy Link Larkin-reportedly, Shankman initially felt Efron was "too Disney"-but he later reconsidered. In addition to High School Musical 2, Efron also appeared in the big-screen remake of John Waters' Hairspray (1988) in 2007. As a result, Efron made it a contractual point to ensure that his voice appeared unaided on songs for High School Musical 2, which became the most-watched event in cable television history in 2007. He chose instead to take time off to focus and graduate from high school.Ĭontroversy later erupted when sources disclosed that Efron wasn't actually responsible for voicing his High School Musical songs, and that Canadian singer-songwriter Drew Seeley was the actual voice behind the role. Offers for acting roles and record deals followed, but Efron declined.
