You can now add Zac Efron to the official list of Star Wars: Episode VII potentials, alongside Jesse Plemons. During the press run for That Awkward Moment, Efron and co-stars Miles Teller and Michael B. Jordan sat with MTV to do a round of 'Most Likely To' and interviewer Josh Horowitz stealthily sneaked in "Who's the most likely to be in a Star Wars movie?" (Skip to the 1:29 mark if you're not interested in the guys debating who'd go full frontal.)

Efron, on the spot, admitted that he has indeed met with "them," confirming the rumor from months ago that he was on a list of names J.J. Abrams and co. were meeting with. Regarding the meetings, Efron said: "It would be cool. I love[the Star Wars movies], I love them, but … who knows?" What role do you think Efron, Plemons and the like are auditioning for? The offspring of one of the original trilogy heroes perhaps?
