Miles Teller says Zac Efron's Walk of Fame star is 'overdue'

All jokes aside, "You are my friend and running mate. You are the man, the myth, the legend that is Zac Efron, baby," Teller said. "For my generation, our generation, Zac was and is the first true superstar to really come out of our class."

He added that Efron is "a true triple threat with a combination of immense talent, incredible work ethic and above-average face."
