Zendaya slyly raised an eyebrow at Zac's remark.

Zac also had many on-screen kisses with his High School Musical co-star Vanessa Hudgens.

He also kissed Taylor Schilling in the 2012 movie The Lucky One, Allison Miller in the 2009 movie 17 Again and has had many other on-screen smooches.

Zendaya told the interviewer she didn't notice if Zac had any kissing expertise.

'You're in the moment! When you're into a character, the whole time they're not allowed to as much as touch, talk, speak, have a moment between each other so every moment, even if they're just touching is incredibly special. It's not just another kiss. It's different,' Zendaya said.

'We try to take ourselves out of it and become these two characters and that's their moment,' she added.

Zac confirmed that the circumstances leading up to their characters kissing made it special.

'Just because at this point for these characters, it's so built up, the tension between them is so strong and literally, just a glance between them is electric,' Zac said.

'When they finally have the courage in that moment to finally connect and get that kiss, it's that epic musical moment,' he added.

The Greatest Showman follows American showman P.T. Barnum, played by Hugh Jackman, as he becomes the founder of the circus that became the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
