Zac Efron has been making headlines following his recent rehab stint along with his dating life and rumored new girlfriend Lily Collins. However, it seems like the public is back to focusing on his career following the release of his deleted scene from the movie "Parkland."

The special x-Ray is to examine a blood clot in the lungs and with the result from a coin toss Efron's character is sent into the trauma room.
During an interview on the movie set Efron said, "This day in history has never been examined this closely."
He explained, "You've never had an inside like this. You're never been this close to probably the biggest American tragedy...I think we're making a real cool movie. So hopefully one to be watched for generations and to celebrate the man and the day and the heroes."
The movie directed by Peter Landsman debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival in early September and centers on Dallas during the three days surrounding the assassination.
Efron added, "The three days are really shrouded in so much mystery and controversy with conspiracy theories."
The actor revealed, "Growing up, I didn't know what was fact or fiction. But the simple truths of what transpired that we know for a fact are all in this movie."
