After leaving the series, he joined another soap opera – “One Life to Live” – as Hunter Atwood, but for just 13 episodes before he started pursuing other acting engagements. In 2008 Zach secured several appearances which became successful, including as Cash in the TV sports drama series “Friday Night Lights”, based on the novel “Friday Night Lights: A Town, a Team” by H.G. “Buzz” Bissinger. Then in 2009, Zach came to prominence as he was selected for the part of Matt Donovan in the TV fantasy horror drama series “The Vampire Diaries”, and until the series’ end in 2017 featured in all 171 episodes, which added a substantial amount to his net worth.
