Zac Efron revealed that he would love to be a part of "High School Musical" reboot, noting that his "heart is still there."

During an interview with ENews, the 34-year-old actor was asked whether he would like to return for the franchise’s reboot. "Of course," the actor said in response, New York Post reported.

"I mean to have an opportunity in any form to go back and work with that team would be so amazing," Efron said, adding, "My heart is still there. That would be incredible. I hope it happens."

"High School Musical" TV movie series was first released in 2006 and the sequel of the movie, "High School Musical 2," was dropped in 2007. The third installment of the franchise, "High School Musical 3: Senior Year," was released in 2008.

The actor replied, "Yeah, maybe at some point down the road. We'll see. Of course, I'd love to be a dad one day but I don't know what if the movie made me want to do it any sooner."

Considering Efron's upcoming projects, he will be next featured in "Firestarter," which is helmed by director Keith Thomas. The flick is based on Stephen King's novel based on the same name.

He will also feature in an Apple TV+ movie, "The Greatest Beer Run Ever," which will also star Russell Crowe, Kyle Allen, Will Ropp, Viggo Mortensen, Archie Renaux, Bill Murray and Ruby Ashbourne Serkis.
