Nudity? No problem. But being naked while planking on a toilet, however, is another matter.

E! News correspondent Jesse Giddings caught up with Zac Efron at the premiere of That Awkward Moment at Regal Cinemas L.A. Live on Monday, Jan. 27, where the actor dished on one of the most talked about scenes from the bromantic comedy. "This movie's all about, 'Bring it on. How can it get more awkward?'" the 26-year-old movie star shared. Efron then smiled and told Giddings, "It's kind of weird looking at a dude in the eye saying those words right now. It's weird!"

Efron has joked about the body-baring moment before. "What was it like planked naked over a toilet? Dangerous, risky, challenging—but I always take pride in the fact that I do my own stunts," he joked during a recent Twitter Q&A. On a slightly more serious note, he added, "I'm constantly embarrassed. I believe that I learn more from failures than my successes."

The single star had a blast working on the comedy, in theaters Jan. 31. "It was definitely fun to work with these two guys," he said of Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller. "And I wish I could do it again."
