Zac Efron does business on his birthday

Zac Efron is happy to mix business with pleasure. The hunky actor celebrated his 23rd birthday in London, England, Tuesday night with Champagne cake at Chinese restaurant Hakkasan.

Efron’s table of about 15 included a movie producer who was discussing starting a project with him in the States, according to the New York Daily News newspaper.
 
Recent reports claimed Efron was in talks to play Marvel’s Sub-Mariner Namor in a big screen version of the comic book character.
 
“Zac is seen as perfect for the role,” reveals a movie insider.
 
“He can fit the role physically and has the acting skill necessary and he has a fanbase to help make the movie a hit. Namor is an unusual character but the underwater aspect is something producers are very excited to be putting onto the big screen.”
