Taylor Zakhar Perez Didn't Play Guitar Before 'The Kissing Booth 2'

Taylor Zakhar Perez is dishing on the audition process for The Kissing Booth 2!

The actor is stealing hearts across the world as Marco in the just released Netflix sequel.

Taylor recently opened up about auditioning for the movie, and how he didn’t even know how to play guitar beforehand.

“I was immediately spooked,” he told Glamour about the role. “In the casting breakdown it said, ‘Please submit professional singers and dancers. We would love to consider Eurovision or American Idol stars,’ or something like that.”

“I didn’t think I’d have time to learn a song or the choreography the way I wanted to,” Taylor added. “Plus, this role was for a guy who played guitar, and I have never played guitar in my life. I grew up playing piano.”

After he landed the role, he said, “It was like, ‘You start dance and guitar rehearsals next week!’ Did we ever. We practiced dancing for hours. Hours! I wish I could bold and italicize and put that in 150 font. That’s how much we practiced.”
