Zac Efron Covers GQ México, Stars in HUGO-Clad Photo Shoot

Promoting Baywatch, Zac Efron covers the June 2017 issue of GQ México. Photographer Nino Muñoz heads out with the American star. The new face of Hugo Boss’ HUGO fragrance, Efron fittingly wears the German label for the shoot. Stylist Fernando Carrillo pulls together lightweight summer suiting and complementary pieces.

Efron talks to GQ México about the Baywatch movie. He reflects on his own memory of the classic television show. The 29-year-old actor shares in a translated quote, “I have some memories of my childhood of Pamela Anderson in slow motion and of David Hasselhoff like a form of Poseidon.”

Discussing the movie version, Efron explains, “I got involved in this project when I met Dwayne [Johnson] and the director Seth Gordon, and I realized that we had a great opportunity to modernize what was already done.” Efron continues, “In short, we wanted to honor and modernize it. It was at that moment that I signed on for the proposal. I knew it was something we had to do.”
