Zac Efron has received heartfelt praise from his younger brother, Dylan Efron, for his powerful performance in The Iron Claw.
In a resurfaced interview earlier this year, Dylan, who recently wowed audiences by dancing to Zac’s song Rewrite the starsreflected on how the film brought the brothers even closer.
Appearing in the Sorry, we’re Cyrus podcast, the star traitors spoke about their bond and how it evolved during the making of the emotional sports drama.
“I really liked The Greatest Showman,” Dylan said.
“That’s up there. I think Iron Claw is his best performance. Like he’s as sad as a brother.”
She continued, “It’s really sweet. I’ve never actually told anyone this, but Zac and I talk a lot.”
“We live in different places at the moment, but we talk a lot and, looking back, when he was filming that movie, he called me almost every other day.”
Dylan also reflected on how those calls took on new meaning once the movie was released.
“I didn’t even put it together because he had filmed back-to-back movies, and then I realized he was calling me very often while he was filming that,” the 33-year-old actor noted.
“He was like, ‘Yeah, this movie is really difficult, I’m just calling to catch up and stuff like that.'”
“I never prepared it until the show came out, so I knew it was about brothers and stuff, but I didn’t realize he was calling me so much during it because he was so excited,” Dylan concluded.
