After enjoying immense success with 'HSM', Efron went on to shed that image and took on more mature roles including the one in the film 'Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile' where he played Ted Bundy. He's also known for his work in the films, 'The Lucky One', 'Neighbors', 'Dirty Grandpa', 'Baywatch' and 'The Greatest Showman Alive'.
