Farrelly is a seasoned comedy director with hits like Dumb and Dumber; Shallow Hal, Me, Myself and Irene and There’s Something About Mary to his credit.
He worked with Efron on the recent Apple TV movie Greatest Beer Run Ever, and garnered multiple Oscars for the 2018 smash hit Green Book.
Efron is no stranger to Australia spending time Down Under to film the Netflix docuseries Down to Earth. During his last stay Down Under, he dated part-time model Vanessa Valladares.
High School Musical heartthrob Efron is no stranger to Australia, spending time in Australia to film the Netflix docuseries Down to Earth.
During his last stay Down Under, he dated part-time model Vanessa Valladares.
Their relationship went public in July 2020 when Zac was photographed giving Vanessa a kiss on the cheek at Byron Bay’s General Store & Café, where she worked as a waitress.
Vanessa would go on to accompany her famous boyfriend as he traveled across Australia for various work projects from late 2020 to early 2021.
But it was confirmed in April 2021 that they had called it quits, with Zac’s friend Kyle Sandilands announcing the split on his KIIS FM radio show.
‘I can confirm [the break-up]after speaking with him yesterday’, the athlete said at the time.
