Adam DeVine reveals he last heard from his “good friend” Zac Efron around six months ago.
The Righteous Gemstones actor, 41, revealed on Wednesday, April 2, on the In Depth with Graham Bensinger podcast that he hasn’t heard from his Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates costar recently.
DeVine recalled how Efron, 37, called him around six months ago “out of the blue” for the first time in a few years. During their call, the Iron Claw star said, “ ‘Hey man, I just wanna let you know that I miss you,’ ” and DeVine said he echoed the sentiment, saying, ” ‘I miss you too, dude. You’re a good friend of mine.’ ”
DeVine noted that Efron then asked, “ ‘Um, you still have that place down by the beach?’ ”
“And I’m like, ‘I do,’ ” DeVine recalled. “He’s like, ‘Would it be cool if I came and crashed with you for two weeks?’ I’m like, ‘Uh, yeah, sure, come stay with me.’ He’s like, ‘Alright, I’m gonna call you tomorrow to get all the details, and then I’ll be there early next week, and then you’ll send me the address and all that.’ I’m like, ‘Alright.’ ”
DeVine explained that he told his wife, Chloe Bridges, “‘I think Zac’s gonna come live here with us for a couple weeks. I don’t know.’ And she’s like, ‘OK, yeah, I guess so.’ ”
But Efron never stopped by. DeVine explained during the podcast that Efron “ghosted” him and “never called back.”
“I even texted him like, ‘Are you gonna stay here?’ And haven’t talked with him since. So I’ve [got] no idea, dude,” DeVine said. “No idea.”

DeVine told Bensinger that he, Efron, Kendrick and Plaza are still on a text chain together, where they’ll sometimes share stories about running into people who are fans of the film.
