During The Lorax press junkets at Universal Studios earlier this month, Zac sat down with Teen Hollywood. They chatted about the film, the environment, voice acting, much more! Check out an excerpt from the interview below.
TeenHollywood: The theme of “The Lorax” is saving trees and our environment. Are you “green” at home?
Zac: I try to be green, as much as I can. It’s hard. I feel like I’m never doing enough. Here I am sitting and drinking out of a plastic bottle. That’s just what you get handed. I’ve always been searching for a way to get more involved and to help, and I felt like this movie, with the message that it has, was a really organic way to be able to help and get involved for me as an actor because there are only so many things you can do. This is a way, through a film, to teach and hopefully get the message out to young kids, and as they say in the movie it only takes one seed. So, I think we’re planting those seeds.
TeenHollywood: What was your background with Dr. Seuss books?
Zac: I have a lot of vivid memories of me and my parents reading these books. They would read them to me. It’s frozen in my mind. I can see them all. I still have them in what used to be my room, which has been turned in to the spare room at my house. I got kicked out. My little brother took over my room. Anyways… [he laughs].
