If you've watched the first three episodes of The Traitors, you know Dylan kicked things off with extreme underdog energy. Just, wandering around the castle in his Rory Gilmore-core white cable knit sweater, fan-boying over cast members from Survivor. But as the show's progressed, Dylan has become one of the only Faithfuls who's putting the pieces of the Traitors' devious puzzle together.
So, what do you need to know about Dylan? Let's get into some important facts.
He's Super Close to Zac Efron
Dylan actually has three siblings: Zac "We're All in This Together" Efron, a little brother named Henry, and a little sister named Olivia. They're all super close, though Zac and Dylan are especially tight due to being just a few years apart. Dylan even worked as a producer on the docuseries Down to Earth with Zac Efron.
His Name Isn't Actually Dylan
It's Nicholas Dylan Harrison Efron. He explained why he goes by Dylan to brobible, saying "I’ve always gone by Dylan. My mom was a big hippie and loved Bob Dylan, so that’s where it came from."
He's a Former Iron Man
As Dylan informed us on The Traitors, he rock climbs, he free dives, and he "plays every sport." He also told Just Jared that once upon a time "I crashed my bike riding home from work. I fractured three ribs, three transverse processes (vertebrae) and my tailbone–I raced a half Ironman one month after."
Oh, and he told the outlet that he "rarely" wears deodorant during the same interview. Something to think about.
He Has a Huge Social Media Presence
On top of having a popular YouTube channel where he's "making memories, learning, and humbling myself outdoors"...
And showing up in a few episodes of Off the Grid with his brother...
Dylan has almost 1 million followers on Instagram, the vibe of which is shirtless photos, outdoorsy things, and sponsored content. In fact, here are all three of those elements in one pic!
Also here's a photo of his upper thigh in case that's interesting to you.
He Wrote a Lifetime Rom-Com Script
Direct quote: "I wrote a script for the Lifetime Channel about a love triangle gone wrong. It never made it to the screen but I hope it will someday!"
He Worked on A Star Is Born with Bradley Cooper
"I love producing things," Dylan told Just Jared. "I was a coordinator on A Star Is Born with Bradley Cooper, I also was a producer on Netflix’s Down To Earth and Off The Grid. Flow State is a dream project, as it combines my love for creating shows and trying crazy new experiences with close friends."
His Relationship Status Is TBD
For those curious, there are some fan account claims that Dylan is in a relationship. If they're correct, he's keeping things relatively private, so moving on!
Zac Thinks He'll Win The Traitors
“I think he’s going to win,” the High School Musical star mused. “He’s really good at games, and I just have a good feeling about it. He is just the best at games. Growing up, he was a first roll Yatzi kind of dude. If I was him, I would move to Vegas and just play games. He’s that good, so I got high hopes for him.”
Kay, you're now an expert in all things Dylan Efron, fare thee well.
