"It was disappointing," Zac told MTV News. "It was hard. I actually had to break the news to her. I was like, 'I think we are moving on to your date.' ... She took it really well, but it's hard when that kind of stuff happens."
"We don't, as actors, have any control over it, so we'll see," he added. "I mean, hopefully it will work out for the best. Beastly is a great movie, and when it does come out, people are absolutely going to love it."
