See More... While his High School Musical co-star Zac Efron is busy becoming the latest teen heartthrob, Corbin Bleu is focused on bigger and better things - his fledgling film career.

The 18-year-old heartthrob was spotted this past weekend hard at work on his next film “Freestyle,” a role that necessitated his learning how to ride a dirtbike.


Corbin explains, “It’s a motocross movie about this young man’s coming of age and his dreams to turn pro, and all the struggles he goes through supporting his family. I’m a producer on it, as well.”

And while it might seem a bit extreme to have to learn to ride motocross for a role, Bleu isn’t a stranger to learning new things for movie roles.  He reportedly had to acquire some basketball and baseball moves for his role in the High School Musical movies.

Bleu told press, “It’s become a running joke—I have to learn something new for every movie I do. I hope I can keep up the streak with this motocross. What these guys go through is pretty difficult. It’s really the most physically demanding sport in the country.”
