The Zac Efron effect strikes again.

When Efron sat down with E! News recently, the star of Charlie St. Cloud learned that costar Amanda Crew was stunned to find herself working alongside the High School Musical star.

"Words escaped her mouth...She turned into a 12-year-old girl," our own Kristina Guerrero spilled to Zac. Always the class-act, the actor chalked it up to first-day-at-work jitters: "That's very sweet of her to say, but we got over that real quick." Don't sell yourself short, Mr. Efron.

Check out what else Zac had to say about preparing for this role that was unlike any he's ever taken.
