LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- “High School Musical 3’s” Zac Efron has no qualms about sharing his teen heartthrob spotlight with “Twilight’s” Robert Pattinson.

“I’m stoked for him,” Zac told Access Hollywood’s Tony Potts at Tuesday night’s GQ Men of the Year Awards of the Brit whose star is very much on a mega-rise.

Zac, 21, is even supportive of the 22-year-old actor. He told Tony he plans on taking in a showing of the Pattinson-fronted vampire drama when it hits movie screens this weekend.

“I’m gonna be there,” Zac said. “I’ll be watching ‘Twilight’ in theaters – probably opening night.”

And though he has only seen snippets of “Twilight” thus far, Zac thinks he will enjoy the movie, co-starring Kristen Stewart, tremendously.

“It looks fantastic,” he raved.
