Zac Efron: 'Paperboy' Underwear Dance was Improvised!

Zac Efron shakes hands with Ellen DeGeneres while making an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, airing Thursday (October 4).

The 24-year-old actor talked about dancing in his underwear with Nicole Kidman for their upcoming movie The Paperboy, which hits limited theaters this Friday.

“Nicole is so amazing to work with. She’s also very improvisational and when she finds the character she can sort of maneuver in and out of the lines,” Zac said. “You never know what to expect. This was supposed to be a very serious scene. It was a sort of an intense dramatic moment for me. So I was very prepared to give my all in a dramatic moment and before I knew it music starts to turn up around me and she kind of looks at me and says “You want to dance?” And they’re still rolling so I can’t really say cut. And before I knew it we were improvising an entire dance in the rain.. It’s one of my favorite scenes in the movie.”
