Social media users have theorized that the actor’s jawline changed due to cosmetic surgery, car accidents and more.
Here’s what the actor has said. Zac Efron has something in common with his character in his newest movie: They both had surgery on their jaw, leaving changes to their face.
Not only did the broken jaw alter the shape of his appearance, but he commented that he did physical therapy to help rehabilitate his jaw which left him with bigger face muscles.
He said: “Some of the masseter muscles in the face, which are used for chewing, had to compensate for the others not being at full health. They just grew and got really big.”
Zac added: “If I valued what other people thought of me to the extent that they may think I do, I definitely wouldn’t be able to do this work.”
