London
(ANI):
Hundreds
of
fans
flocked
around
their
idol
Zac
Efron
at
the
premier
of
his
new
film,
Me
And
Orson
Welles,
in
London.
People
were
said
to
have
queued
for
several
hours
at
the
Vue
West
End
cinema
in
Leicester
Square
to
see
the
High
School
Musical
actor.
The
22-year-old
later
spoke
about
his
character,
a
teenage
student
who
gets
to
work
with
a
young
Orson
Welles.
“I
could
really
relate
to
the
character.
I
went
through
a
lot
of
theatre
when
I
was
his
age.
Everything
that
happened
to
me
in
10
years
happened
in
one
week
of
his
life," the
Telegraph
quoted
him
as
saying.
He
added:
“It's
also
a
great
opportunity
to
do
something
about
Orson
Welles
–
he's
an
incredible
performer
on
Broadway,
on
radio
and
one
of
the
best
directors
of
all
time,
so
hopefully
people
will
be
reintroduced
to
him."
Co-star
Claire
Danes
also
said:
“I've
grown
accustomed
to
the
hysteria
that
tends
to
surround
Zac
and
I
get
it,
because
he's
absolutely
gorgeous,
but
even
more
than
that
he's
a
terrific
actor."
