‘The Ace’ is a fan of the performance Zac Efron had.
Hiroshi Tanahashi enjoyed watching The Iron Claw biopic which stars Zac Efron and Jeremy Allen White as the Von Erich family.
In an interview with Tokyo Sports. This is what Tanahashi had to say about Efron and the performance he had in the film.
“Zac Efron (who plays the lead role of Kevin Von Erich) is just so cool. I had an image of actors playing professional wrestlers as thin and macho, but all the actors in this movie have good muscle mass. There were no unnatural moves at all. Chavo does a good job, and I wanted to bring Zac Efron to New Japan Pro-Wrestling,” he said to Tokyo Sports.
Chavo Guererro was the main trainer for the actors as he got them in shape and ring ready for the filming.
