When we reported earlier that the Zefron might be preparing for the role of Jonny Quest, he didn’t seem too enthused. But now, the news has broken that Zac will in fact be in the film.

Zac will play the 12-year-old, however for the movie, and to make it not seem weird that Zac is playing the character, Jonny will have been aged to 22-years-old. Which means that hardcore fans of the original show might be a bit disappointed. The movie is being produced by Warner Bros.

Time out though…we thought the Zefron wanted to be involved in more “adult” roles and that he didn’t like his young fans anymore…right.
