Rob Lowe Says He Wants Zac Efron to Play Him in His Biopic (Exclusive)

Rob Lowe wants the world to know that if a biopic is ever made about his life, he hopes Zac Efron plays him.

He sat down with the late Larry King and called the Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates star "a little bit of a mini-me," saying he had taken Efron under his wing in a mentor-mentee relationship and expressed his pride in how far the younger actor had come. Rob also told the late TV and radio host that Efron had become like family to not just himself, but to his two sons, John Owen and Matthew Edward, who he shares with his wife, Sheryl Berkoff. John Owen plays Jackson, the shy child of eccentric tech CEO Ellis Dragon (Rob), who is in a downward spiral after the death of his wife.
