Here is the last question that M Magazine asked Zac:

Q: We gotta ask, why'd you decide not to do the Footloose movie?

A: "There were a million things that went into my decision. It was difficult, but I was just looking for a change. Something I'm working on now is a movie called The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud. And as for Hairspray 2, you know as much about it as me!"
