It was announced about a year ago that Adam Shankman would be directing the big-screen adaptation of the Broadway musical, Rock of Ages, a musical that features a lot of 80's glam, like Bon Jovi, Styx, Twisted Sister, and Poison. There hasn't been a lot of blood on the pavement in production yet, as presumably Shankman was too busy filming Zac Efron's Pool Party to translate a long-form episode of "Glee" onto the silver screen.
The Hollywood Cog, however, brings us a few notes on casting possibilities that Shankman and New Line are currently mulling. There's nothing at all concrete here; it's still in the early stages, but the possibilities are too intriguing not to report. There's no one yet lined up for the male lead -- the role originated by "American Idol's" Constantine Maroulis on Broadway -- but apparently, there is some interest in casting Katy Perry as the female lead,...

Teen heart throb Zac Efron's next film, "Charlie St. Cloud" hits AMC theatres tomorrow. To celebrate its release, we thought we'd look back at some of our favorite Zac moments from the big screen (and one pretty funny video).
1. Zac Efron's Pool Party
Zac teamed up with FunnyorDie.com to make this very, very funny video depicting what happens at a Zac Efron pool party when an unruly uncle and his girlfriend crash the good time!

2. High School Musical 3: "Scream"
The first two "High School Musical" films were made for The Disney Channel, but with HSM3, the gang got to hit the big screen. Zac has plenty of solos in the film, but here's the video for the song "Scream."
3. High School Musical 3: "Now or Never"
The "Now or Never" video for HSM3 is also a pretty effective mini-trailer for the movie!

When Nikki Finke toldjus, she really toldjus, and so it should come as no surprise that the Academy has indeed confirmed Adam Shankman -- he of Hairspray- and Zac Efron's Pool Party-directing, Miley Cyrus Twittercore posting, and So You Think You Can Dance hyperventilated-judging fame -- to produce this year's Oscars. He'll be joined by Bill Mechanic, chairman of Fox Filmed Entertainment in the late '90s and more recently the producer of Coraline.
