If you're an 8-year-old girl or watch things intended for 8-year-old girls, then you are probably very familiar with Corbin Bleu and are likely squealing right about now. The bouncy young man, whose name sounds like a misspelled chicken, ham and cheese dish, is one of the stars of High School Musical.
Bleu is now moving on to slightly more grown up things by signing to star in Metal Birding. He'll play a motocross loving kid who dreams of winning the Amateur National Championships. But how can he do that when he's got to support his poor family? How? Why have you punished him so, God? What a world!
TV director Jeff Woolnough (Battlestar Galactica) will direct the film, which shoots in Vancouver later this year.
Never ye fear, High School Musical fans, Bleu will likely pull his leg warmers back on for High School Musical 3 after completing Metal Birding.
