Which Movie Stars Are Making 2012 Their Breakout Year?

2012 is well under way and it's the perfect time to take a look at the celebs Hollywood is buzzing about already. Who is destined to make big headlines this year? Who will star in Hollywood's biggest blockbusters? Well, we don't know for sure but we have some predictions on who the biggest movie stars of 2012 will be.

Zac Efron

Zac has grown up since his days in "High School Musical" and although we've seen him in a few films since, like "Charlie St. Cloud" and most recently "New Year's Eve," 2012 is the year this blue eyed cutie really shows off his acting chops.

This year the celeb is starring in a whopping number of five films including "The Lucky One," "The Paper Boy," and "Liberal Arts" just to name a few. His co-stars are some pretty big names in Hollywood and include Nicole Kidman, John Cusack, and others. Is Zac ready to take his acting career to the next level and show he can do more than just teen roles?

Chloe Grace Moretz

2012 proves to be Chloe's biggest year. One of her breakout roles included playing the little sister of the emotionally tortured Tom in "500 Days of Summer" and since then this pint sized actress has had a wave of roles sent her way. This year the blonde beauty will star in three movies including "Movie 43," "Dark Shadows," and "The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea."

Elizabeth Olsen

Mary Kate and Ashley might be the bread winners of the family but little sister Elizabeth proves in 2012 she can make a name all for herself. The blonde haired beauty is starring in a few films this year including "Liberal Arts" with Zac Efron and "Red Lights" starring other heavy hitters like Cillian Murphy and Robert De Niro. Elizabeth might not be the lead in these films but she's proving to be an up and coming starlet in Hollywood.
