Zac Efron’s Physical Transformation on Full Display in First Official Photo From ‘The Iron Claw’

Zac Efron is more than ready to become a professional wrestling champion. A24 recently released the first official photo from the new movie The Iron Claw which is a biographical film about the Von Erichs. Efron plays Kevin Von Erich and is seen taking down an opponent in his new physique. Fans got to see Efron’s body transformation in a leaked photo in October. 

On Instagram, Efron wrote, “First Look at my latest project Iron Claw! Can’t wait to show you more…let’s go.”  The Iron Claw is based on the rise and fall of the Von Erich family who are considered the first family of pro wrestling. Efron stars in the film along with  Lily James, Maura Tierney, Jeremy Allen White and Harris Dickinson.

Kevin Von Erich has won multiple championships in different promotions and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2009 as a member of the Von Erich family. When speaking to TMZ, Von Erich shared his thoughts on Efron portraying him in The Iron Claw. “It’s gonna be a hard job, I think. It’s a lot of information and a lot of time and so they’ve got some tough work ahead of them, but I saw a picture of the guy and he looked great,” he said, per PEOPLE. 

“I don’t think I ever looked that good, so I think they’re going to do great. I’ll bet they do.” Von Erich added “It’s gonna be a hard job, I think. It’s a lot of information and a lot of time and so they’ve got some tough work ahead of them, but I saw a picture of the guy and he looked great. The 65-year-old then said “I don’t think I ever looked that good, so I think they’re going to do great. I’ll bet they do.”
