Dylan Efron asks brother Zac for advice 'before every big decision'
Published in Entertainment News
Dylan Efron turns to big brother Zac Efron for advice "before every big decision".
The 34-year-old TV personality, who appeared on both The Traitors US and Dancing With The Stars in 2025, is keen to follow in his famous sibling's footsteps into the acting world, and he isn't afraid to use Zac, 39, as an inspiration.
He told PEOPLE magazine: "I've been so lucky to learn from Zac my whole life. I've watched how he has navigated which films he's doing, even how he dresses on red carpets.
"I've been able to watch him represent himself in front of the public eye since I was a kid, so I've just soaked it up like a sponge.
"I still chat with him before every big decision. So I think it's inherent; he's always helping me."
Dylan described Zac as the "most important person" in his life, noting that as he's started to pursue acting, he's "always picking his brain".
After a busy and prominent 2025, Dylan insisted he hasn't "changed too much", as his "exposure" on television has come at the right time.
He added: "If I went back seven, eight years ago, I was a different person and I was shy, and I wasn't ready for anything."
Looking to the future, Dylan is attached to Netflix's Squid Game: The VIP Challenge, and he has other ambitions in mind.
He said: "I want to buy a house and fix it up and dedicate some time to that, and I still would really like to try acting.
"I think it's just like a new challenge, and like I've said, I like to learn new things and just fully get absorbed into it. So I think being in a movie or a show is definitely on the agenda board.
"A show where I could go out in the world, see different cultures, see different experiences and just keep learning. That's my dream."
Dylan previously opened on the differences between him and Zac, and he insisted while the Ricky Stanicky actor is "more of a gym guy", friendly competitions are something else.
He told WWD: "Zac's definitely more of a gym guy. I've always been a little taller and leaner, and Zac can out gym, outlive me in pretty much every category, I'd say.
"But let's play some sports and I have an edge."
Zac, known for his roles in the likes of High School Musical, The Greatest Showman and The Iron Claw, gravitated towards theatre.
However, Dylan took a different route and saw himself on a field of some kind.
He explained: "I've always loved the cardio aspect, the training for sports. I've been able to pick up most new sports I try."
