Well, Zac did actively encouraged her to get her bits out in her quest to move away from her High School Musical label... and it's safe to say Vanessa's thrown herself in to his advice with the enthusiasm of a frisky stripper encountering a vat of jelly. Which is a trifle unnerving.
Of her new film, Sucker Punch, Vanessa said: "I'm playing a character named Blondie and it's set in a brothel in the 1950s, so there's not a whole lot of clothes. It'll be gun training, stunts, fighting and all that craziness. I can't wait. I'm so excited. I've wanted to do an action film (set in a brothel?) for a while. I think this is my time to really step it up and get to grow up. It will be somewhat different with the content and a few more foul words but that's the biggest difference."
Yeah, I'm totally overreacting; like what's the difference between foul mouthed, near-nude, gun-toting prostitutes and the cast of High School Musical? Sure, I might send the 8-year-old niece along to the cinema once Sucker Punch is released; she'll hardly be able to spot any deviation at all.
