The actor, who portrayed Keegan Baker in the BBC One soap opera, has been chosen to star in Goosebumps, a popular US Disney+ series.
Alongside well-known actors like Will Price and Isa Briones, Zack will play the role of Isaiah, a “popular star football player” whose family is “banking on his athleticism to secure him a full ride to college” due to financial difficulties at home.
The series, which takes inspiration from the Goosebumps books, centers on a group of high school students who are forced to cooperate after unleashing supernatural forces in their community.
With a lot of responsibility on their shoulders, the friends must also deal with old grudges and forge new bonds while discovering each other’s secrets.
