He wrote, 'Very thankful to everyone who has reached out. I did get sick in Papua New Guinea but I bounced back quick and finished an amazing 3 weeks in P.N.G. I’m home for the holidays with my friends and family. Thanks for all the love and concern, see you in 2020!' (sic)

Back to his old self by 2015, a 28-year-old Zac had his old wry smile on at the premiere for We Are Your Friends.

Seriously, who else could look this good with platinum blond hair and dark facial hair? Sigh.

Zac Efron, 2019
By December 2019, it looked as though Zac was growing out his lighter locks when he posted this group shot of himself in Papua New Guinea, confirming that he'd been struck down with an illness whilst there filming Killing Zac Efron, showing him going 'deep into the jungles of a remote, dangerous island to carve his own name in expedition history'.
