Zac Efron is collaborating to work, once again, with 17 Again director Burr Steers. The project is a different venture for both, an adaptation of the novel “The Death and Life of Charlie St. Cloud.”

Ben Sherwood wrote the book, concerning a caretaker at a cemetery who manages to have weekly meetings with a younger brother whose accidental death he believes was his fault.

It doesn’t look like Efron will be singing and dancing in this story, which is a good path to take while he comes back around to film Footloose after Charlie St. Cloud.

If all goes as planned, production starts in July.
