Zac Efron Shared A Hilarious BTS Clip From A Family Affair
The actor couldn’t contain his laughter.
Zac Efron is giving A Family Affair fans what they want from his camera roll. To mark the release of the Netflix comedy on June 28, the actor posted a hilarious behind-the-scenes video on Instagram of his co-star Joey King nailing a comedic stunt during filming.
In the BTS clip, King appears horrified after interrupting something she really didn’t need to see. After a quick choking scare, she begins screaming and attempts to make her exit. Then, making the situation even more awkward, she accidentally slams into a door frame and falls face down on the floor.
After completing the scene, King’s co-stars Efron and Nicole Kidman burst out laughing from behind the camera, and then turn Efron’s lens on themselves.
“Let’s go!” Efron quips, just before Kidman chimes in, “That’s my girl” while giving a thumbs-up. Efron then jokes that King “does all her own stunts” as she walks back into the room. “That was so good,” he adds.
King’s co-star Liza Koshy also praised her work in the scene, writing in the comments under Efron’s video, “No floor pad, NOTHIN. Raw dawg.”
Directed by Richard LaGravenese, Netflix’s A Family Affair follows the story of Zara Ford (King), a personal assistant to the self-absorbed movie star Chris Cole (Efron). However, after Zara quits her job as Chris’ PA, he begins an unexpected romance with her widowed mother, Brooke Harwood (Kidman).
Efron recently discussed working with Kidman for a second time with People, after previously starring together in 2012’s The Paperboy.
“I was still a bit apprehensive but reuniting with Nicole is always so great and as talented as she as an actress,” he said. “She is equally kind, caring, and wonderful to spend time with.”
While A Family Affair marks the first time King and Efron have worked together, the former has fond memories of the actor from his High School Musical days.
In a recent interview for Netflix, King admitted to being a big fan of the Disney movie franchise, prompting Efron to reveal a surprising behind-the-scenes tidbit about one of the film’s most memorable musical numbers.
