ET spoke to Efron at the Toronto International Film Festival, where he was promoting his new film, 'The Greatest Beer Run Ever.'

He continued, "They help you through tapes, they have ideas -- they're very aware of their presence on camera, characters and story. "When you meet somebody like that, and you're filming a movie, and you're sort of in the process already, you just start working together, and there's something that really great actors do that Bill and Russell did, that was just -- they are so present and care so much about this craft, that they've mastered so many different aspects of filmmaking. After making it to the frontlines, Chickie gets a first-hand look at the good and the bad parts of the war that he didn’t see at home. "It's also woven really beautifully with this underlying humor, that is just Pete [Farrelly's] style, and I knew he was really gonna make this something special." The incident occurred after he reportedly slipped in a puddle of water that he didn't see near the entrance of his home. ET's Rachel Smith spoke to Efron at the Toronto International Film Festival Tuesday, ahead of his new movie, [The Greatest Beer Run Ever](https://www.etonline.com/first-look-at-zac-efron-in-greatest-beer-run-ever-190452), where he spoke about the painful accident, and put those plastic surgery rumors to rest.

Zac Efron is opening up about his very scary accident. Last year, the 34-year-old actor appeared in a video where fans were quick to notice that his face ...

“It sucks. At the time, many people assumed that Zac got plastic surgery. He passed out and when he regained consciousness, his chin bone was hanging off his face.

In his follow-up to the Oscar-winning Green Book, director Peter Farrelly makes another bid for middlebrow prestige with The Greatest Beer Run Ever.

But while the film isn’t quite as risible as Green Book (it’s not a glorified white savior story in buddy-comedy drag, in other words), it has an awfully similar arc: A myopic doofus has his eyes opened by the hardships of others, gaining edification through the suffering he witnesses (in this case, on a countrywide scale). Our coverage of the Toronto International Film Festival continues all week. For more of A.A. Having just won Best Picture with a movie about an Italian American from midcentury New York, is Farrelly following further in the footsteps of Francis Ford Coppola? He’s a “war tourist” getting in over his head for the story. In practice, though, that’s akin to Futurama’s savvy spoof of M*A*S*H*, with Farrelly toggling But soon enough, he’s on a cargo ship headed for the war, duffel bag of PBR over his shoulder. Beer Run might have worked a little better as satire, with a version of Chickie too thick-skulled to ever acknowledge what a bad idea this little bring-the-party-to-them pilgrimage was. Lately, the writer-director has simply been reversing the ratio of Goofus to Gallant. Here, as in Green Book, there is the anchoring presence of an amiable New Yawk lunk: John “Chickie” Donohue (Zac Efron), a hard-drinking Brooklyn dude with a not-particularly-enlightened perspective on the war in Vietnam. One night in his local watering hole (tended by Farrelly’s old Kingpin secret weapon, Bill Murray), he hatches a foolhardy scheme: He’ll bring a beer to each of his four buddies still stationed in Vietnam, as a thank you for their service. How are you gonna keep him on the flatulence farm when he’s seen the bright lights of the Kodak Theatre?

Efron plays John "Chickie" Donohue, who decides to support his friends fighting in the Vietnam war by hand delivering them American beer.

"I was in (civilian clothing), and I wasn't a soldier. It was not until Chickie saw the horrors of the war for himself that his opinion started to shift. "I couldn't believe that this really happened. I think it changes the tone of what you're seeing and elevates the horror in some ways," Farrelly told Reuters. (Protesters were) referring to them as baby killers and that hurt. The US Marine Corps veteran and merchant seaman decides there is no better way than to head into the war zone to deliver them American beer.

With little more than a dozen words, actor Zac Efron has spiked interest in a relatively obscure mental disorder. In an interview with Men's Health, ...

And diagnoses can sometimes be a little bit arbitrary in that fact. "And the cognitive behavioural therapy is really just referring to the interrelationship between our thoughts, feelings and behaviours, which is represented within that agoraphobia cycle and targeting each of these areas with specific strategies to enable that cycle to change and to be able to participate more normally in those situations." "Treatment, regardless of the severity, and also regardless of whether they're meeting all of the criteria, or if they're sitting quite sub clinically, would be under a cognitive behavioural therapy," Ms Ackland said. "Then it will go all the way down to someone who continues to participate in certain situations, but does feel some level of out of normal range anxiety, or less enjoyment in these situations and might be reliant on certain strategies or people in order to continue functioning and we will consider that quite mild." "These are often clients that find it difficult to even leave their homes to the point of going to the letterbox, the distress upon doing so would be significant to the point potentially of panic. "So, in that way, we can self-diagnose to the extent that we look through that criteria and say, yes, I do that, yes, I think that, yes, I experienced this. "We certainly have seen clients post-COVID that note COVID as a time that seemed to be associated with a worsening of their symptoms, with an onset of symptoms that weren't there before and also a lapse in symptoms that had otherwise improved to be in a very good place pre-pandemic." "A diagnosis is a label that refers to a collection of symptoms. "We would still want that to be an improved experience to him." "And that might be the case for Zac Efron that he might find that he is reticent, to go into these situations, experiences more discomfort than he would like, maybe feels like his enjoyment is somewhat impaired, because he would prefer not to be there and want to leave. "And if it's something that they are still quite functional, and the distress is only mild, it actually wouldn't satisfy criteria for that diagnosis, not to discount that it might be something that's challenging for a client. "So, we don't want to discount the fact that someone might be having difficulty or challenge with some area of their life that could be improved.
