Zac Efron turns Narc for Fox

Zac Efron will star in the true crime tale Narc, Deadline reports.

Described as a “college Donnie Brasco,” it tells of a star student, who, after being busted with drugs at a party, turns narc and helps the coppers capture the peddlers.

Fox has purchased the life rights of the real subject.

Narc marks another decidedly dark project for the former Disney star. He was last seen being peed on by Nicole Kidman in The Paperboy.
