Dylan Efron is carving his own path in the entertainment world, and his latest venture has the full support of his famous family.
As he prepares to compete on the newest season of Dancing with the Stars, the younger Efron brother shared how his family, including older brother Zac Efron, reacted to the news.
In an interview with Extra, Dylan revealed that his family is "very excited to see him do something that's 'so not me.'"
This sentiment was echoed in a conversation with PEOPLE, where Dylan shared a surprising family tidbit: his mom's long-held dream was actually for Zac to be on the dance competition show two decades ago.
While Zac's path led him to Hollywood superstardom, it's Dylan who is now fulfilling that family dream, and the support is overwhelming.
"I'm really excited for my mom to be there," he told the outlet, noting that he'll likely "tear up" seeing his loved ones in the crowd.
This isn't the first time the Efron family has shown their support for one another's professional endeavors.
Dylan, who has a background as a production coordinator on major films like American Sniper and Ready Player One, previously produced the Netflix travel documentary series Down to Earth with Zac Efron, which earned a Daytime Emmy Award.
More recently, Dylan gained a new level of public recognition as a contestant on season 3 of the reality competition show, The Traitors.
Before the season of The Traitors even aired, Zac was already a believer, telling Entertainment Tonight that he thought his brother would win.
"He's really good at games and I just have a good feeling about it," the High School Musical alum said.
When a fellow Traitors contestant, Bob the Drag Queen, playfully jabbed at Zac's acting skills during the show, Dylan reported that his brother just "laughed about it," adding, "This is all just fun to him... He's been super supportive of it all."
As Dylan takes center stage on the dance floor, it's clear the bond between the Efron brothers and their family remains strong.
Their mutual support, whether on a high-stakes competition show or a globe-trotting documentary, serves as a reminder that a solid foundation can be key to navigating a career in the public eye.
