This could be his most challenging role ever.

Zac Efron has shared the first glimpse of his new project. The High School Musical actor is a far cry from East High School as he sets to star as Ted Bundy in upcoming film Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile.

The film which is told from the perspective of Ted’s longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Kloepfer, goes into the mind of Ted Bundy, who back in the 1970’s murdered over 30 women. The American serial killer kidnapped, raped and murdered most of his victims. He was known to return to crime scenes  weeks later where he left victims dead, performing necrophilia on many of the women’s bodies.

The notorious killer was also known for having a charming look which he exploited to win over his victims. Bundy confessed to his crimes in 1984 and he was then sentenced to death by electric chair.

Last night, we got our first look at Zac Efron as he begins filming as Ted Bundy.
