Character Analysis
(Avoiding Spoilers)
Grew Up… to become the most popular boy in school. Zack Siler has always had it all: the hottest girlfriend, the best grades and a glamorous lifestyle.
Living… at the very top of his high school’s food chain. Zack and his girlfriend Taylor were destined to be prom king and queen, until Taylor’s act of infidelity with the arrogant Brock Hudson (of MTV’s The Real World) tears them apart.
Interests… playing soccer, hanging out with friends and having fun.
Relationship Status… brokenhearted after being “dissed and dismissed” by the narcissistic Taylor. In order to console himself he convinced his friends that he’s capable of replacing the beautiful, popular Taylor with any girl in school. As he says, “Give her the right look, the right boyfriend, and bam. In six weeks she’s being named prom queen.”
Challenge… turning Laney Boggs into prom queen. Zack’s friend Dean has challenged Zack to a bet: turn the geeky Laney Boggs into high school royalty in only six weeks. The “scary and inaccessible” Laney doesn’t seem to want Zack’s attention. She, unlike the other members of the student body, has no interest in becoming prom queen.
Personality… dreamy, handsome and kind. Zack, unlike the rest of his popular friends, is not completely shallow and narcissistic. By pursuing Laney, he’s gotten in touch with his artistic side.
