Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron have reunited on screen for their latest romantic comedy.
The clips they’ve posted on social media have generated significant excitement among fans.
However, many were surprised by Zac’s new look, with some having difficulty recognizing him.
The trailer for their latest movie, A Family Affair, has given fans a preview of the film, particularly highlighting the steamy scenes between the 56-year-old Oscar winner and the 36-year-old star.
The film centers around a young woman named Zara, portrayed by Joey King, who works as an assistant to the narcissistic and womanizing movie star Chris Cole, played by Zac Efron.
After quitting her job, Zara is stunned to learn that Chris is having an affair with her widowed mother.
Fans had mixed reactions to the rom-com’s trailer, especially to the scenes featuring Zac and Nicole’s characters in steamy situations.
Some viewers felt that the age gap or the lack of chemistry made it difficult to believe in their on-screen relationship.
One person asked on social media, “Isn’t he young enough to be her son?” Another confessed, “I just cannot get into Nicole Kidman and Zac hooking up in this movie.” A skeptical fan commented, “Weird couple!!! I can’t imagine there is any chemistry! Lol.”
Some comments focused on Zac Efron’s changed appearance and the difficulty in recognizing him.
One commenter said, “Why would Zac do this to his face,” while another remarked, “All I see is Botox, hyaluronic acid, and faces barely giving expressions.”
Another comment read, “Zac’s face doesn’t move, it’s perfectly paired with Nicole’s face,” and another added, “He really messed up his face.”
Others were excited to see the duo on screen. “Great to see a role reversal with an older woman and younger man!” one fan wrote.
Zac Efron discussed a near-death experience that almost cost him his life and how it impacted his appearance.
