In a recent video uploaded by @LukeSherran on his YouTube short, he discusses how the first trailer of his upcoming movie, “The Iron Claw” has presented a rather bulked-up Zac Efron that no one’s sure whether steroid is not hugely responsible or not. The video focuses on how Efron’s body transformation has completely changed him, making him look like a different person. The video reported, “Not only Zac is bigger than ever before, but the haircut and changes in his jawline make him appear like a different person”.

Efron is playing the role of the monstrous wrestler, Kevin von Erich. Directed by Sean Durkin, The Iron Claw is supposed to hit the theaters by the third week of December. With the rumors of Efron’s steroid intake, the fans are getting concerned heavily.

Fans question his physique being steroid-induced

One of the fans said, “Definitely not natty! And regarding his face… Possibly could be HGH because his belly is definitely rounder and protruding. I’ve got to feel sorry for him though.” Another pointed out, “With every person thats even slightly jacked. Nobody ever says natural they always go straight for the negative option. It’s like dealing with a bunch of narcissistic people. U just can’t win…” Yet another fan commented, “Well its obvious. Hes looking big tho either way, movie looks sick.” Someone else pronounced, “juiced to get the role”. Last, but not least, another said, “Aaaaaall of the drugs. Stay natural, stay healthy, like me.”
