Zac Efron Praised As A "Hero" By Marcia Gay Harden For Reaching Out For Rehab Help!

While we were totes shocked to hear Zac Efron had received treatment in rehab just months ago, we’re totes glad he did that for himself.

And we’re not the only ones because those closest to him are sending love and support for what they think was a brave thing to do.

Corbin Bleu wished his High School Musical costar the best after his reported stint, and now Zac’s Parkland costar, Marcia Gay Harden, is laying the praise on the young actor for his decision to deal with these demons.

She said:

“In my opinion, Zac Efron is a total hero. Him seeking help encourages other people with addictive issues to seek help. It’s brave of him. I think only a coward lives in denial, and he is not a coward. He’s a hardworking go-getter and I love him.”

We couldn’t agree more!

Anyone who is struggling with any sort of problem should def seek help. It’s the right thing to do.

Keep on the healthy road, Zac!
