Zac Efron is quickly climbing the “IT list” ladder and achieving the goals he has been aiming for.

HSM's hottie Zac Efron is reportedly set to star in the film adaptation of romantic novelist Nicholas Sparks' The Lucky One.

The flick is about a marine who survives three tours in Iraq with the help of a photograph of a woman whom he has never met. (Our hearts are already beating!)

Zac will also be starring in the upcoming Snabba Cash and Art of the Steal.

More of Zac Efron – who's complaining?!
