As most of you know by now, “Gossip Girl” star, Chase Crawford has replaced Zac Efron for the new ‘Footloose’ remake being produced by Paramount Pictures. Now, according to reports, Zac Efron stated in a recent interview, “I’ve always thought Footloose was a great project and Chase is an amazing choice,”’ .”I can’t wait to see it !”

Also Chase said in an interview that he knows Zac,and they are actually friends. He went on to state, “I know Zac and we’re actually friends.” He’s gotta make the best choice for his career at this point and I have to make the best for mine and luckily it worked out for both of us.”

Zac is currently the star of New Line Cinema’s “17 Again” which is a hilarious comedy,actually. I wouldn’t mind watching it again.

The “Footloose” remake is currently set to start filming in March of 2010 and hopefully be released before the end of the year.
